At just over 24 feet and under 4,200 lbs loaded, the 197SS is easy to tow with a half-ton truck, a real advantage if you're not ready to upsize your hauler. The single full bath is a practical touch for a trailer in this size class, and the layout manages to sleep six without feeling like a compromise. Forest River's Salem Select line targets the value-conscious buyer, so expectations around fit and finish should be calibrated accordingly. This is a starter trailer, not a luxury build. If you're eyeing one used, a close look at the plumbing connections and cabinet surfaces before buying will save headaches down the road.
Other travel trailers floor plans (around 24 ft 2 in), similar in size and price to the Salem Select 197SS.
