I just like driving it and I stay on the move so I get a lot of miles. Taking it to Colorado for a ski trip next month so I’ll easily have over 15k on it by then.

Winnebago makes nice stuff, for sure. (I have a Forest River product . . . :(). Actually, I'm really happy with my camper, but it's not as nice as a comparable Winnie.

I have friends with a couple other brands and they all seem fairly similar so I'm not surprised to hear Forest River is treating you well. I remember looking at them when we were shopping.

Likely made in Forest City, Iowa.
Thanks everyone! I have no idea where it was made, but it's been great so far (maybe a dozen trips, not counting quick runs up to the mountains). Bought it two years ago and it works well for our family and the type of trips we like to do. It's my first trailer so I don't have any comparison, but quality has been good with a few hiccups. A few busted brackets, screws/bolts come loose, trim and decals pop off, all small stuff in my mind. Honestly, most of that is probably due to me taking it on back roads where it wasn't meant to go (I lifted it and put on bigger wheels & tires so I have better clearance.)

Now that I think about it, the only real complaint I have right now is that the hot water heater is too susceptible to high altitude. It seems if I get above 7 or 8k feet, I have to manually light it. More of an issue with the hot water heater and my environment rather than the brand of trailer, but that's all I have to complain about right now :).

11 MPG for 105 mile round trip today. Lots of long hills. Trailer is about 3000 lbs loaded right now. Tows it fine. May add weight distribution hitch if I get north of 400lbs tongue weight. About 360lbs currently.
