Columbia City, United States - October 30, 2026 / Thrills RV /

COLUMBIA CITY, IN, Oct. 30, 2026 — Thrills RV is highlighting two 2026 Forest River travel trailers in its published RV Specials inventory. The listings feature different floorplans, camping amenities, and advertised prices below manufacturer-suggested retail prices (MSRP). The featured models include the Wildwood X-Lite 25ICE and IBEX 25RLSS, with advertised MSRP differences reaching $23,085.

The listings provide specifications and pricing for shoppers researching RVs in Columbia City, IN. Both trailers offer sleeping accommodations for five people, although their interior arrangements and equipment differ.

Wildwood X-Lite 25ICE Features a Rear Bathroom Layout.

The new 2026 Forest River Wildwood X-Lite 25ICE is advertised at $27,999, compared with an MSRP of $51,084. The listed price is $23,085 below the MSRP.

The approximately 30-foot travel trailer has an advertised unloaded vehicle weight of 6,178 pounds. Its floorplan includes a front bedroom, rear bathroom, and single slideout.

A fireplace adds another interior feature for campers comparing living spaces. The layout separates the sleeping area from the rear bathroom while providing room for everyday activities.

The model also includes a custom king bed with Versa Tilt, a hidden pantry, and pass-through storage for camping supplies.

IBEX 25RLSS Includes an Outdoor Kitchen and Solar Equipment

The new 2026 Forest River IBEX 25RLSS is listed at $36,959, compared with an MSRP of $50,982. The advertised price is $14,023 below the MSRP.

Measuring approximately 29 feet, the trailer has an unloaded vehicle weight of 5,743 pounds and sleeping space for five people.

Its floorplan includes a single slideout and a walk-through bathroom. An outdoor kitchen provides an additional food preparation area, while a 200-watt solar setup supports certain electrical needs.

Shoppers can compare these features with the Wildwood X-Lite's arrangement to identify differences in interior access, outdoor amenities, and equipment.

Floorplans and Equipment Shape Travel Trailer Comparisons

Buyers researching travel trailers in Indiana can consider how different layouts accommodate household size, travel frequency, and camping routines.

Families may prioritize accessible sleeping areas and adequate storage, while couples may prefer additional living space. Travelers planning longer stays can also examine kitchen usability, storage capacity, and access to everyday facilities.

Interior comfort depends partly on how easily occupants can move between rooms, reach storage compartments, and use shared spaces. Buyers can consider how these arrangements function when several people occupy the trailer.

Reviewing these practical needs alongside published specifications gives shoppers useful information to consider before arranging a dealership visit.

Towing and Maintenance Remain Important Purchase Considerations

Buyers comparing RV trailers in Indiana should review vehicle weight, towing capacity, and campsite dimensions before purchasing.

An unloaded vehicle weight does not represent the trailer's fully loaded traveling weight. Cargo, water, and installed equipment can increase the weight a tow vehicle must handle. Buyers should consult the trailer's weight ratings and their tow vehicle's specifications when determining compatibility.

“Buyers should consider the trailer's loaded weight, towing requirements, and maintenance needs alongside its floorplan. Regular inspections of tires, brakes, and other components are also important when preparing an RV for travel,” said Aaron Battrick, Service Manager at Thrills RV.

Thrills RV provides on-site and off-site RV service, giving customers an opportunity to discuss maintenance needs alongside their vehicle selection.

New and Pre-Owned Inventory Offers Additional Choices

Beyond the featured specials, Thrills RV carries new and pre-owned recreational vehicles across several categories.

Its inventory includes travel trailers, fifth wheels, motorhomes, and toy haulers. These options accommodate different towing arrangements, sleeping requirements, and travel preferences.

Online listings provide photographs, specifications, and available floorplan information to support comparisons before a dealership visit.

Advertised prices and vehicle availability may change. Interested buyers can contact the dealership to confirm current listings, equipment, and purchasing details.
