Factory Tours

Is Forester (FR) still providing factory tours during COVID times. If yes, any current contact information would be helpful.

They're not even doing tours for the big Goshen FROG rally which begins Sunday, so I would say no.

You might want to send KaryK a PM and ask.

Have you called the division you’re interested in on the phone? Contacts are listed on the forestriverinc web site. Example: https://forestriverinc.com/rvs/conta...rester-classic

From what I've seen of factory tours on YouTube I don't believe I'd ever buy a trailer again if I saw that chaos in person . People running as fast as they can does not produce a good product . Being paid buy the piece is horrible for quality period .

Agree. We did a factory tour in Elkhart and it didn’t project a favorable view of the products. I’m surprised RV manufacturers offer tours; it’s kind of like showing the potential customer “how the sausage gets made”. However, if you are a potential customer, getting a tour is wise to see what you’re getting yourself in to.
