Thanks for all the responses. I decided to order the Blue Ox with the 1,000lb bars.

I realized I never replied thanking you for your reply. The information you provided was very helpful. I was almost set on the RBE, but ended up deciding to go a little larger and bought the 2600RB. The pros are I get the dinette that I can work from when needed as well as theater seating like in the MLE and I get the bedroom with a door and larger bathroom like in the RBE, an extra sleeping space, and many large windows. The downsides are longer/heavier, the windows are not on the campsite side, and you have to put the slide out a few inches to get into the bedroom. I’ll be picking it up Saturday.

New to the forum!
Wow, looks like you are rocking the MLE22 with a 2020 Ford F150 2.7EB! We just bought the exact same Ford but with the 3.73 ratio which increases tow capacity to 8900lbs. And my #1 contender for our RV upgrade ( from Cherokee Wolfpup 16 BHS 21.5ft) is the MLE22! Only contender is the Transcend XPLOR 200MK. But the MLE22 seems to offer so much more (love the recliners AND the dinette and the rear kitchen looks epic).
Two questions for your decision on the MLE22 - The bathroom 'retractable sheet' shower door - any problems? Seems so cheap compared to some other solutions, like the Rockwood Mini-lite sliding clamshell design.
Also - how is the 2.7EB in the mountains? I'm in BC, so lots of mountain passes. Any struggles engine/truckwise with the MLE22?
Thanks!

We were leery of that shower door too.....but so far, so good. It does work pretty good; just be careful when you latch it open, that you don't bump it as will really slam closed... That will wake you up, other than that it works great. We have had our trailer for about 10 months and it works real well for us. Not sure about your Ford, but my GMC hardly knows its there....

Hi Brendal, we've had no issues with the curtain or door. Actually love that the door slides and isn't in the way. Couple of years, we had rented a Jayco that had the clam shell type doors and they would often detract. Might be different type. Because of Covid, we've only been traveling in ON and QC. Now, our mountains are hills compared to yours but on our second last trip in QC the first site had no hook up so we were packed with a full fresh tank and encountered some good "hills". The 2.7EB just keeps on impressing me. We love have both a dinette and recliners and really love the kitchen. Oh and all the storage. Hard to believe that 2 can be in the kitchen and still have room in a 22ft trailer. Another big plus for us is that 100% of the tt is functional with the slide in.
Let me know if you have anymore questions. I've got scale numbers in 2 different post if your interested. Just do a search for my name and you should be able to find them.

We traded our Rockwood Mini-Lite for a 22mle. No problems with the Rockwood, solid TT, but the shower on our 2018 was cramped and there were reports by a few others that their glass doors shattered into hundreds of pieces. Some reported it happening during transport, others said they discovered it after being in hot storage.
For that reason and because we felt cramped we removed the glass doors, put them in our basement then added a shower curtain. When we traded we simply replaced the glass doors. One other minor detail; the shower was high so we eventually got a step to reduce the chance of slipping when stepping down.
The 22mle checked off several things for us including a decent size shower, lower floor and no glass doors. The sheet slider is light and requires some attention closing/opening but we’ve not had any issues so far. Be gentle, it is made of light material.2010 Tundra SR5 DC 5.7L 4x4

So cool to see so many people with nearly the same exact setup as me. Makes me feel more confident in my choice.
