204RD

We have just traded “up” to a 204RD Freedom Express. We think we are going to love it and all its storage! We love the layout and its decor too! Has anyone had any issues with this trailer, or have any advice for us as new owners? Thank you and happy camping!

D321...You left us E-Pro/Geo Pro 14FK folks.

Needed more space? Were there issues that made you change?

We have turned into camperholics! We decided as often as we liked to camp that we indeed needed something larger. The EPro 14FK served us well, but for camping a week at a time, especially in rainy weather, we needed something larger. We think the 204RD will be perfect with the added bonus of roominess without a slide. Hope you are still enjoying yours. We pick our “castle” 204RD up Wednesday. Happy camping to you!

Yes, I can see the need for something larger if cooped up in many days of rain. Happy Camping!

That's why there is this old adage, in the RV Community:

"Buy your second trailer FIRST"

We should have done exactly that! Hindsight is 20/20!

I just bought my 204RD and have had a few build quality iseues. 1. The rear window has a gap in the center so weather can come in and the latch can't lock the widow. 2. The head unit wasn't wired properly (fixed) 3. The flooring in the rear cargo area is lifting. 4. Had an open pipe above the fresh water tank 5. The aluminum stone guard and underlying wood was not attach at the bottom. I had a 1" wide gap that I noticed when putting the spare tire away. Various pieces of inside trim falling off. Ive dealt with most of the issues myself.
