2026 Salem FSX 266BHLE

The Salem FSX 266BHLE is the full-size family bunkhouse of the value-twin line. A front bedroom anchors one end, a separate rear bunk room holds the kids, and the living and kitchen sit in between, so nominal capacity reaches eight — all in a 29-foot-11 body with no slide-out. It is the family volume plan of the FSX line: enough beds for a full household in a trailer that stays light and affordable. Its twin is the Wildwood FSX 266BHLE, the identical trailer in different décor.

FSX is Forest River's value, stick-and-tin line — a powder-coated I-beam steel frame with camber, two-inch walls sixteen inches on center, a SuperFlex walk-on roof and a .040 smooth-aluminum front cap with a diamond-plate rock guard. As a Limited Edition Value plan it ships with free upgrades: a 12V power awning, a 13,500-BTU roof air conditioner in place of the base 8,000-BTU side-mount, a full-size spare and a larger under-counter refrigerator. A 6-gallon gas water heater and an LP cooktop handle cooking, and the optional Platinum package adds smooth fiberglass walls with a 200-watt solar panel and a power tongue jack.

At 4,853 pounds dry against a 7,550-pound GVWR it leaves roughly 2,697 pounds of cargo capacity — generous for a full family's water, food and gear — and the tandem-axle, 30-foot body still tows behind a half-ton truck. A 54-gallon fresh tank with 40-gallon grey and black tanks supports a family well away from hookups. For a family that needs a separate bunk room and eight berths but wants to stay light, simple and affordable — with the identical Wildwood to shop against — the 266BHLE is the value twins' full-size family bunkhouse.

Forest River's Salem FSX and its twin the Wildwood FSX are near-identical lightweight lines — the same stick-and-tin trailers built on the same factory line, differing mainly in graphics and décor and sharing an identical floorplan roster. FSX sits below the laminated Cruise Lite / X-Lite as the value, SUV-towable entry into the family, with a Limited Edition Value tier at the bottom of the price ladder and full-feature ICE and bunkhouse plans above it. The 266BHLE on this page is highlighted; each other profiled plan links to its own page. The line runs to dozens of floorplans across travel trailers, value LE trailers and MAX-Series toy haulers; the highest-demand layouts are detailed here and the rest are catalogued on the line hub.
