Forest river toy hauler

Anyone have any problems with special orders from Forest River?
I special ordered a 2017 XLR THUNDERBOLT 417AMP.
I have a list (50+) of problems that are completely unacceptable for a brand new unit.

Anyone else have this or similar problems?

That does seem like a lot. New campers (the units, not the people) ALWAYS have their issues that need to be ironed out, but 50 seems like a little much. I'd contact the dealer you bought from and have them go through the punch list.

Also, check out the XLR section here--very helpful people who probably have fixed just about every problem you have or could have.

Thanks will do.
Just left the manufacturing plant for the XLR with my new fixed one Thursday evening. The dealership took too long so I took matters into my own hands.
