OTOH as a travel trailer, it does not make much sense compared to the rest of the line. I can only think of three advantages:
1: power lift
2: more storage when down
3: door access when down.
and a major disadvantage
- floor area does not increase
That said the only way this makes sense would be if the engineering/tooling was almost free.

We saw the RISE prototype while we were at the factory. Think of it as the light weight construction of a TM. It is a box design like the HI-LO that is driven by hydraulics instead of electric motors and cables and pulleys.
