01 What makes it unique

The 26DBS is Avenger's classic family bunkhouse. The Forest River factory describes the floorplan as one entry and one slide out, with a metal exterior and a 16-foot awning, and an interior of bunk beds and a front bedroom — detailing a Camp King bed in the private master bedroom, two double-over-double bunk beds, and a jack knife sofa with a storage ottoman alongside a booth dinette. The factory also calls out an easy-view TV and fireplace, a generous hidden kitchen pantry and the standard exterior refrigerator. Two double-over-double bunks plus the master is how it reaches eight berths in about 32 feet.

It carries the standard Avenger value build: a powder-coated drop-frame chassis with a Tuff-Coat metal exterior, a PVC roof membrane, a fully enclosed underbelly with a best-in-class pass-through, a centrally located outdoor refrigerator, a 10-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, a three-burner cooktop with a glass cover, a built-in convection microwave with an air fryer and factory solar prep. Prime Time publishes a 7,805-pound GVWR against the 6,413-pound dry weight, leaving a 1,392-pound cargo capacity — the tightest margin in the line — and an 805-pound dry tongue, with a fully ducted 15,000-BTU air conditioner and 42/68/34-gallon fresh/grey/black tanks. Prime Time and Forest River publish no MSRP for the line, so confirm street pricing with a dealer.

03 The Avenger floorplan family

Avenger is Prime Time's high-volume value travel trailer — Tuff-Coat metal-sided, drop-frame half-ton family towables below the laminated Prime Time Tracer, and a cross-shop against Forest River's own Salem / Wildwood and Aurora, Jayco's Jay Flight SLX and Coachmen's Catalina. Six floorplans are profiled in full and linked below; the remaining plans are catalogued and shown muted. The 26DBS on this page is highlighted.

Avenger is Prime Time's high-volume value travel trailer — a Tuff-Coat metal-sided, drop-frame half-ton family line below the laminated Prime Time Tracer, and a cross-shop against Forest River's own Salem / Wildwood and Aurora, Jayco's Jay Flight SLX, Keystone's Passport and Coachmen's Catalina. RVUSA files nine 2026 Avenger plans; six floorplans are profiled here in full and the remaining three are catalogued from published specifications below. Every Avenger rides a bumper-pull tandem-axle powder-coated drop-frame chassis with a Tuff-Coat metal exterior, a PVC roof membrane, a fully enclosed underbelly with a best-in-class pass-through, a Camp King bed, a centrally located outdoor refrigerator, a 12-volt refrigerator, a three-burner cooktop with a convection-microwave air fryer and factory solar prep. Tongue weight, GVWR, dry weight and CCC are published per plan and each plan's dry weight plus CCC equals its GVWR exactly. Dry weight is a factory estimate; real loaded tongue weights run higher — always weigh the loaded trailer and confirm against your vehicle's tow rating and payload.

04 What owners & reviewers report

Two double-over-double bunks

The factory details two double-over-double bunk beds plus a Camp King master — how the plan sleeps eight in about 32 feet.

Watch the cargo margin with eight aboard

A 1,392-pound cargo capacity is the tightest in the Avenger line and it sleeps eight — water, gear and passengers add up fast, so weigh the loaded trailer.

Solar is prep, not an installed panel

Every Avenger ships with factory solar prep — roof and wiring provisions rather than an installed panel. Its laminated sibling, the Tracer, ships with an installed 200-watt panel instead.

Theater seating is an option, not standard

The jack knife sofa with cupholders is the standard seating; Prime Time offers theater seating as a factory option in its place, so confirm what a given unit is built with.
