Palomino Real-Lite Mini RL 191
dry weight 4,219 lb + fresh water (44 gal, full) 367 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.
Judged the way the app judges: estimated loaded weight against each vehicle's rating less a 10% margin, per model year, because the RL 191's published weights held steady.

Palomino (Mixed tier): Palomino is Forest River's Colon, Michigan division; Real-Lite Mini was its sub-3,000 lb laminated ultralight, built alongside and mechanically identical to the PaloMini - same trailers, two badges for different dealers
- 2023Introduced, replacing RL 189
- 2025No 2025 brochure published; line wound down
Findable: a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Palomino is a volume manufacturer; only 2 model years. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.
The biggest Real-Lite Mini ever built - eight berths, a 17' awning and a 68-gallon grey tank, still under 5,600 lb GVWR. Bunk size taken from the maker's 'double bunk' description. The 2024 brochure prints fresh water as 35 gal against 44 elsewhere.
