What do you people consider a small TT? Our Zinger is 19', 23' overall. Does it qualify?

personally, I have a 25 ft'er and consider it small compared to others in our family. I do feel camped with two or three people in it, so if you are single, a 19 ft would be real small by my standards

My box is 17' and my overall is 21'. I regard my TT as small. I think most folks on the forum would consider under 25' overall with no slides as "small". Single axle TTs under 20' overall would probably be called 'micro'. Probably will get a lot of opinions as the labels are kinda subjective.
Won't be any disagreement about what is large. Over 30' overall is generally regarded as large. I'd call "typical" TT 25'-30' with at least one slide.

I guess I'd ask the question: What's it matter? By this I mean are you happy and comfortable and does it meet your needs? The Nomad we had before our current one was the same size your Zinger. It worked well for our family from 1991 till 2008 when we took the jump. I see lots of people that love the size of their trailers as it meets their needs. I have a friend that has a Buro and wouldn't change even if you gave him a biger one for free! I guess what is the need to classify it by size.

I consider ours small. Sometimes I consider it tiny. There are times our TT is the smallest out of 50 or so RV's. Do I care, sometimes, until I have to wax it.
Don't like the view?? Then change it and Go Camping   Our pics

There's only us two seniors and one cat. Sometimes I feel we're a bit cramped in it. These Zingers are well made but lack "indoor" storage space. We're the type to spend most of our times outdoors so that helps. We carry stuff in our TV and some stays outside in our FirstUp screen room or under the awning.

We probably all have differing opinions on "small." Over a 20 to 21' box (cabin) to me is a medium sized TT already. I guess I fit in this Small TT forum then.

We haven't had to wax ours yet but I do all the inside cleaning. I wouldn't want to clean anything larger. It would be like owning another house. I just spent several hours out there today cleaning and getting it ready for the weekend Halloween camping trip.

I was just wondering what the average camper thought of as a "small" TT. The Zinger was the smallest I could find with sleeping quarters in front and back. Unfortunately we can't use the sofa (front) since it's made into a bed. My DH snores so we needed to be as far apart as possible at night.
