FINDING ONE

Common: usually several for sale within a day’s drive. Why: Forest River is a volume manufacturer; 8-year production run; still in production; an uncommon body style. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

Same 24'10" box as the 233S but trades a tent end for a hard-wall sofa slide.
