Pick the Highland Ridge Range Lite 200MLM if…
Couples who boondock or dry-camp on national-forest land should pick the Highland Ridge Range Lite 200MLM. The 1,800W inverter runs residential outlets and a coffee maker off battery, the four-season pkg lets you camp in shoulder seasons, and the 23.33 ft length parks in tighter forest sites that 29-ft rigs cannot reach. King bed and theater seating add comfort without bloating length, and the lighter 4,935 lb dry weight gives a half-ton truck headroom for cargo.
Pick the Winnebago Minnie Plus 26RBSS if…
Hookup-park couples who want a rear-bath layout with more interior volume should choose the Winnebago Minnie Plus 26RBSS. The single slide expands the living area when parked, 69 gallons of grey lets you take longer showers between trips to the dump station, and the 9,995 lb GVWR gives you 3,715 lbs of cargo capacity over dry weight. The 29.5 ft length still pulls cleanly behind a properly equipped half-ton.
