Specific owners manual
Is there a way to get a model specific owners manual? There are some wiring/plumbing questions this could easily solve. We have a 2016 371REBH.

It would be nice to have one even close.

Why not just post your issues and see what happens?

NO.
Nearly all RV manufacturers, including FR, only provide a generic owners manual.
No model specific manuals, though you may get an insert with info on some special featue or product.
For example, canvas care and maintenance info on popups and hybrid TTs.

If they recorded plumbing and wiring details in a manual that would mean that they would make at least two the same....not gonna happen.

We got every piece of original documentation when we bought our (then) 8yr-old Georgetown from the original owners.

The FR owners manual wasn't even worth using to light the campfire. It was so generic that it could have been used for a Winnebago! Fortunately, most of the equipment manuals were well detailed and we got along OK.

Try the Forest River Digital Owners Kit app for an iPhone. Still not quite unit specific, but close. Owners still need specific wiring & plumbing info. :-)
