As many have suggested your leak is most likely coming from the strip that wraps around the top, sides and bottom of your bedroom slide, after two years mine started leaking along the head of the bed and in my case in the closet beside the bed. You need to remove the old caulking, clean and dry the surfaces and remove the two lower corner caps and there you will find the problem. The outer wall material on the slide does not go fully to either side nor the bottom and there is a fairly large entry point for any water that finds it's way into that area. Removing the caps (3 screws) will give you some insight into the wonders of RV manufacturing and cost saving or poor design, whatever.

I guess we just have to get used to doing this every couple of years and check it regularly. If not found for a fairly short period of time you will soon have floor rot and it will extend up into the slide walls as well.
