New to RVing, Micro Minnie 2016FBS

[GingerPop]

Hi all! Overwhelmed with what I can learn here, but looking forward to the adventure.


Our family just bought a Micro Minnie 2106FBS. We pick it up next week, and will be towing with a 2020 Subaru Ascent. Should be the perfect trailer for this SUV.


Looking forward to joining you all at campgrounds (we'll largely be East Coast public lands) and learning from your expertise.


See you on the road and in the Forum!

Thanks and good luck to you!

Spending this weekend booking campsites through October. Amazing how far in advance you need to book!

Congrats on your new trailer, looked seriously at that model but ended up getting a 2106DS, mainly because we wanted full access to the kitchen and bath with the slide closed.
It does seem to me that the 2106FBS might be a lot for the Ascent to handle. I weighed ours with a full load of water, supplies for a week long trip, and all the modifications and other misc stuff that we need, and it weighed in at 4865 lbs with a tongue weight of 635 lbs.
All combined with the two of us and large dog + other camping supplies and tools in bed of truck we are approaching max loaded weight for our 1/2 ton pickup. Will be interested to hear your experiences. Stay safe and happy camping
