Thank you for doing an in-depth review on this one! I’ve been patiently wait for someone to cover this model! I think I’m sold on this one! My only concern is the hitch weight. It seems a little hitch heavy for my 2020 Tundra, but since it’s well within the overall capacities of every other spec, I think I’d be safe with a good weight distribution hitch and airbags. The G2 Tundra was built to tow, they just didn’t put heavy enough leaf springs on that beefy rear axle. 😅
The 2517S has too much counter space! Who needs all that real estate in a trailer--Emeril Lagasse maybe? Such a long/heavy trailer and yet still not a true queen? Would really like to see this floorplan but with a murphy bed (so we can have a decent comfortable seating area in addition to that nice U-shape dinette) instead of a fixed bed. Oh, and keep the tandem axle and keep it under 6,000# total weight too. Thanks for the video; keep up the great work--it's appreciated!
You didn’t mention if this model has the balancing beads in the tires. I believe the Flagstaff sister equivalent RV to this one comes with the beads for the 2025 year. Do you happen to know if the balancing beads come with this model? Also, I was told by a Flagstaff rep that you can have up to 600 W Solar total on the roof and add another 400 W for solar input on the side of the unit. Is this true?
Yes, the balancing beads are on this model. The standard build has a 200W Solar Panel. There’s an option for a 2nd 200W panel. Beyond that, additional panels are added on a case by case basis. Adding a third panel should be no issue on a 25’ Mini like this one, but it is classified as a “special build” and may come with some additional cost. I will have to defer to the Flagstaff rep when it comes to the capacity of the side solar. These reps know their stuff.
I think that's too big for my truck I only have an explorer with 6500 gw but I can get another truck. I'm going to be down in the morning and just take a look at what's going on there and what else you have
