A slide-out mechanism for a vehicle is provided to extend and retract at least one slide-out section relative to a frame of the vehicle. The slide-out section has a floor and is configured for incorporation into a chassis of the vehicle and includes (a) a frame; (b) a plurality of movable arms supported by the frame and having ends that are securely coupled to the floor of the slide-out section, wherein at least one of the movable arms is a drive arm; and (c) drive means coupled to an intermediate section of the drive arm for driving the drive arm in a first direction for extending the movable arm outwardly from the frame resulting in the slide-out section being driven to an extended position and a second direction for retracting the movable arm toward the frame resulting in the slide-out section being driven to a retracted position.
