Hello all,

New to Forest River Class C but not new to RVing (had a 40 ft diesel). Military Retiree with a an amazing wife who is also a Veteran, 2 sons both Veterans (one still Serving), and twin girls who are 14 going on 30.

After COvID hit we decided to get an RV to help us. Not as a Recreational vehicle but as a Quality of Life vehicle. Both getting older and with a family member with disabilities it was easier justifying to own an RV. Ease of going to mall, water parks, zoos, and of course traveling to see this amazing country, where tired or exhausted family members can relax without feeling bad and other family members enjoy the amenities.

After several months of much research of quality, ease of use, accessibility (to include a majority of camp sites), ease and reliability, and of course test driving and lots of hands looking we decided on a FR Forester Classic 2501TS, and I want to say this has so far been one of the best purchases our family has made to date and totally enjoy the rig.

That is definitely one of the advantages of owning a Class C. Just having somewhere that you can relax while the other family members are enjoying an attraction is a huge plus. No one has to feel rushed or guilty.... been there, still doing that.
Congratulations on your purchase and glad to have you on the forum.
