Discontinued model

I am very disappointed to see Forest River discontinued the Rockwood 2601s for 2013. I was going to buy one and even had a quote at RVW. That was the perfect camper for a large family with a smaller tow vehicle. I am also disappointed that there seems to be no way to contact Forest River to express my opinion.

Oh there's a way to contact them!
Someone will be along shortly with an email and most likely a phone number.

Good luck!

I would still ask RVW to contact Forest River to see if you could get that model built. This is the slow time for them and it may be possible to still build it. Worth a try if you're really set on that floorplan.

You're right! Flagstaff did not discontinue the model. Unfortunatelty, RVW doesn't sell Flagstaff. They were going to give me an unbelievable low price on the Rockwood. Well, maybe we can find a good deal on the Flagstaff somewhere!

if they discontinued the Rockwood version, the Flagstaff version will be discontinued also. they're made in the same factory, on the same assembly line.
they just get different outside decals and decor inside.

I just picked up my 2601S at the Montana Boarder 2 weeks ago from RV Wholesalers, I had no idea this was discontinued. Glad I got it before they cut it out because it is a great floor plan. Can't believe they would stop such a popular plan.
