How many Sunseeker owners do we have?

So we are in love with our Sunseeker 3170ds. We bought it new about a month ago.

Would love to hear from all the Sunseeker owners!!

We have a 2011 3010DS that we bought used last year in November. We have spent a good part of this year full-timing in it and love the floor plan and just about everything about it so far.

We have a 2012 3010DS and love it. We have over 10,000 miles on it and we are not full timers. We are leaving again on Monday to go to Gatlinburg Tennessee for the next week and a half. The floor plan and storage area is fantastic.

We have a 3010ds, and are very happy. Has over 8000 miles been to Maine, Hilton Head, upper Michigan, and Colorado and various places in Ohio. Have 50 nights in it sInce July of 2012 when we bought it. Gatlinburg is on our list for next year. I'm jealous! This summer I got thinking when I woke up one morning that it was my home and I was actually happy with that.

We have a 2006 3100LTD we bought used in October of 2010. Trip to Pensacola, FL; Gatlinburg, TN; Williamsburg, VA; and since March of 2013 traveling monthly with the Big Lick Chapter of the Good Sam Club. Love the floor plan and how the rig handles.

Simply love it.
Could not be happier with it.
Bought it in March, been out for a total of 40 days & 3,000 miles
and have had no warranty issues.
Great machine so far.

Yep things are expected to happen. It's pretty much a house on wheels, so the little bugs need to get worked out.

Mine is brand spanking new. About a month old. I have 900miles on the odometer. Havn't done any real adventuring yet (work has me bogged down) We do venture out locally to all the different camp grounds just to relax and pretend like we are on the road. Best way to see what problems will arise and have warranty repair addressed before our big trips that are coming up.

So far nothing

Keeping my fingers crossed.

2008 3120 DS and loving it. We've had it since the beginning of the year. After a long week at work, jumping in a loaded RV and hitting the road is a blast.

Just found out my shower is leaking at the rear pouring onto the bathroom floor. I assume I keep finding issues, write them down and take it in for one big warranty repair

Exclamation

2010 2600WS great little class C have just noticed some blisters on the side walls de-lamination unfortunately Forest River warranty department not willing to assist in any shape or form said something about should have purchased an extended warranty. This is a manufacturing defect that should be taken care of regardless of warranty.
