rockwood 8265ws(rear window

Have been looking at rockwood 8265ws on the net. Could some tell me why some have 2 smaller windows(one on each side) on the back wall and some have one window in the middle of the back wall. Is there is something different in the opt. on these?

Looks like they changed the layout...single window, fireplace and pop-up TV. Forest River make changes within the model year without notification. I guess that protects the older inventory at their dealer's lots.


You're talking about this, right? http://www.thegreatoutdoorsrv.com/Rockwood/8265ws.htm

Thanks Dave; Yes this is what I was talking about. I wonder if I ordered one now-which is the latest version?

That is probably new production but I'd still have the sales rep verify that with Rockwood. When we ordered our 8280WS, we have the sales rep verify with Rockwood that no changes were pending that would effect our order. Don't want a surprise when you pick it up!

We recently ordered a 8265 WS after looking for some time. The single window is the newest version and the TV now lowers down behind the fireplace which gives more countertop area and a much larger window. We like this better.
