You don't realize how bug the bedroom is until you go back and look at the wardrobe.

Are the 2500TS/2501 shipping yet? The online dealers that list them don’t have a picture and simply state coming soon. We were close to ordering a Solera 24R, but after much calculation determined we'd be on the wrong side of the NCC and towing limits. This floor plan is closer to what we liked about the Solera 24R than the 2250/1LE.

The Central New York RV & Camping Show & Sale is February 28 - March 3, 2013 at the New York State Fairgrounds. Any chance in seeing one there?

i would get a sunseeker 2300 before 2500

Higher authorities are inflexible on a walk around Queen Bed. Upon investigation, that floor plan is ok by me – and 2000lbs lighter! Thanks for the advice, and I’ll see how it goes over.

Can't specifically say if one will be at that particular show, but they are shipping. We had one in the spokane show.

despite it being a somewhat side bed-have you tried the bed in the 2500-because it has to slid and fold it is not a classic serta mattress.

the one in the sunseeker can be an upgraded serta-a real mattress

the 2300 is the best as the chevy 4500 base. better passenger leg room and plenty of cargo carrying capacity. the ford 2300 uses the e-350 not e-450

The 2500 & 2250 mattress are an upgraded mattress. Since we can't get that mattress built in a Serta, we had the supplier put memory foam in the construction. I've personally slept on this mattress and I find it very comfortable.

I don't see other motorhome forums offering the amount of feedback that Forest River does! Based on all the advice, we went back to the drawing board. Right now - we believe the 2650S Ford is our best choice. We have a Ford dealer next door. Our ordering date will be 5 March (after the 43rd Annual RV & Camping Show February 28 - March 3, 2013 at Syracuse, NY State Fair Grounds). This is a big purchase for us - comments pro and con are welcome. Thanks to all that have provided advice - we have listened.
