Hi! from North Georgia

Glad to have found this site! Looks like a great source of info & tips. Kinda new to rv/campers, owned an older Rockwood pop-up for a few years, Sold it, got the bug again, and bought a 2023 Flagstaff R FST12RBST, with most of the options. A couple in their 80's bought it, took the grandkids camping twice, and decided they were getting too old for this. I think we got a good deal. Love the A-frame vs the old crank up canvas sided rig we had! I see lot's of knowledgeable, helpful folks on here, helping others. Good to be here!

Welcome to Forest River Forums

I'm from the Sunshine State, on Florida's west coast.

Make sure to, check both upper and lower MENUs as this is a large Forum. On the second MENU click on "USER CP" and fill in as much RV information as you can, as this will help others who see your post for help can in-turn check your USER CP to give you a little quicker response to your question(s) for help. Doing this will save time on follow-up questions.

If you need a USER MANUAL, both Forest River and Coachmen have them online for most all RVs models/units back about five to seven years. Just go to the MAIN Page for "Forest River Models click HERE and for CoachmenRV click Here Find your model RV and go to the bottom of the page in the BLACK on your left you will find ONWER'S MANAUL

Next, click back on top MENU "FORUMS" and pan down the page to find your RV NAME. Understand, if you own a Coachmen each category has COACHMEN shown. and you want to find the name listed for each FOREST RIVER RV type. Only Forest River RVs are shown and listed by model NAM.. Coachmen's find the category and NO Model NAMES show for Coachmen RV GROUP!

Let the adventures begin with you and your Family OUTDOORS!

Sounds like you got a good deal. I wonder if it was physically to difficult to set up the rig or physically difficult to keep up with the grandkids that made them quit camping.

Welcome to the forum!
