Forest River Surveyor sidewall construction  Lightweight aluminum framings

Forest River says:

What’s in your sidewall? Your Surveyor is constructed with 1.5” tubular aluminum framing in “all” openings. Is this necessary - we thinkso! Aluminum framed openings add strength and integrity to every Surveyor sidewall. No other lightweight trailer compares.

Forest River says "Luxury is well within your reach in the extraordinary Surveyor. Beautiful residential style cabinetry and kitchen, raised panel cabinet doors, spacious pantry, plus the large entertainment center makes this a great choice for affordable elegance.' ...We show the interior of the 2V294 model here (see floorplan below):

We also show the SV264 model with white wood interior.  Forest River says:  "The appeal of the optional white wood revolves around the hardwood cabinet doors. Contrasting with the wood plank flooring, the cabinetry harmonizes with Surveyor’s interior décor."

RossiterReally like Forest River. We have the 2008 235RKS Surveyor rear slide. Wonderful RV and great floorplan with the king bed slide and the twin bunks. Big enough for our family but small enough to tow easily.
charles patonLove forest river hated the dealer we bought it from. forest river have given us a lot of support and i really think they're a good company we have the surveyor and it's a really good rv. chuck.
Greg HWe have a 2007 Forest River Rockwood Lite. This is our first RV and we've been very happy with it. The bunk beds work fine and it's perfect for a family of 4. No real problems and it tows well. We've had a few minor issues dealt with by the dealer and they are not easy to deal with but Forest River are very helpful when you talk to them. I would certainly buy Forest River again but I would choose a different dealer.
