    Selling a camper, how to price (from newbie)

    We bought an E-Pro 19FD in 2019, used. We haven't used it and are thinking of selling it. The manufacturer's sticker lists 4/27/18 but my insurance docs say that it's a 2019. I have two questions: Q1: Would you say I have a 2018 or 2019 camper? Q2: How would I go about pricing it? Please...

    26DBH newbie

    Hi, I'm Rick, from Tennessee. Tomorrow morning my wife and I will be viewing a new 2021 26DBH. We had been looking at a Coleman 262BH but I think I like the Forest River more. I'd be really curious what your thoughts are about this model, and Forest River in General. The price seems right...

    Newbie question about water leak and mold

    Have a new Geo Pro19FD and the water filter leaked when I turned pump on. I think it was not on tight enough. Water got some of the black “paper” underneath the floor wet. I am not sure how or if I need to remove paper to dry it out. Seems like a sizable job. My concern is mold or will it just...

    Just purchased a 2016 nitro xlr 24fqsl toy hauler. So far challenging figuring things out. Hoping to find somebody on her with a similar unit so I can pick their brain. User manuals way too generic and haven’t found this model in videos or online places. Looking for any direction suggestions.
