Hi Dave, and Welcome! I don't have my Oliver, yet, but will order the Elite as soon as I sell my house.
I started out the same as you - wanting a smaller trailer. First, it was a small Class B motorhome, then I fell in love with the 13' Casita. But then, I saw the Lil Snoozy - 17', and changed my mind, again.
I went to a rally in Tennessee to see several on-the-road trailers in person, and there's where I saw Steve and Tali's wonderful Oliver. There's no looking back, now.
Maybe a nearby rally would let you see several trailers so you could compare the different sizes. Size and the quality of the Oliver (and the heated bathroom) were what sold me.
