Forest River (Mixed tier): Forest River's destination-trailer spinoff of the value-focused Puma nameplate — residential-style furnishings and large single-family floorplans up to 43ft, built for seasonal/park placement more than frequent highway towing.

FINDING ONE

Findable: a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Forest River is a volume manufacturer; only one model year. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

Page states '2025 is Dealer Stock Only' — treated as a single observed year, not continuing production. Sleeps not published. Sleeping data added by a later pass: Arrowhead Campers dealer listing, direct quote: 'Sleeps: 4', 'Available Beds: King'; king bed in the loft plus a sofa on the lower level. Collected from a census gap: this line had no catalogue record at all. tier, bn and mat are the collecting pass's editorial read, not inherited from siblings. Slide-out count added by a later pass: CONFIRMED ZERO: alt text has one entry and zero slide outs; title matches
