2014 FR Model Info

When will FR update the web page and brochures updating the model changes and updates for model year 2014? Dealer has been good but is not interested in getting this type of info. We have ordered a Rockwood Mini Lite 2306 and have read about a hand full of running changes, and are wondering what the final change specs will be.

We ordered April 8th and don't expect delivery until late June...pretty darn excited and have been reading up all the info I can.

FR is famous for out of date/incorrect info and specs.
you could be waiting a long time for what you're asking for.

Yup. I found out about his the hard way. I bought our pop-up because the dinette area was supposed to change into a 70" sleeping area, and the beds were supposed to be king size.

I know this is an old post but I am a new member and hopefully Forest River might see this post and maybe a light bulb will go off.
Personally I think their website is very poor to begin with. Not enough specs or pictures and just soooo generic for such a large company. Come on Forest River, hire a real web site designer...and make sure this designer knows RV people like lots of information.

i seriously doubt if someone from FR's IT dept., will read this, since this website "ForestRiverForums.com is not in any way associated with Forest River, Inc. or its associated RV manufacturing divisions".
only certain brands' reps read posts pertaining to the brands they rep.

and FR isn't the only manufacturer that fails to update their websites, it's very common throughout the industry.

We can wish

My 2014 has differences from what is advertised. The weasel words let then put in components with lesser features while saying that they reserve the right to make changes. Right.

Same problem here. Just ordered a SC 226RBDS with every option and nobody has a clue what the final total weight or tongue weight will be.
