Couple of questions about forester/sunseeker 2941/0 DS

Looking at the 2941DS/2940DS.

First, is the only difference between these, the trim/colors?

Second, Does anyone have a picture of the dump valves (or area where they are)? I was looking at another brand, and the valves were too far under the unit IMO. I dont want to have to be crawling around in some of the dump stations we've visited in the past!!

Third, Is it a pain having the right slide out and the door hits it? Will the door latch to it?

Thanks in advance for any help!

The trim I can't answer, but on my Forester (same as the Sunseeker) the dump valve is reachable without any crawling. The cap is just not quite flush with the outer wall with the valve handle a little behind it. the only valve hard to get at (relatively) is the one on the opposite side under the shower. Mine is a 2861DS, so doesn't have any interference with a slide, but if the door opens toward the slide, there would have to be a way to latch it, but if I were designing it, I would swing the door the other way.

I think trim, fit and finish are the only differences. As stated the dump valves are easy to reach on the street side of the MH, the other one is only about 4 inchs under the curb side of the MH and is easy to reach also. I have the 3100 Sunseeker and would recommend it to anyone.

go to rvdirect and build both sunseeker and forester.

they are both the same but forester has better trim and more options.

I have a 2006 2941 forester with 2 slides. the door has a gas piston at the top that prevents it from hitting the slide when out.
