We have a significant number of members who don't currently own a Foretravel, so they aren't Motorcade Club members.  It might be worthwhile to create a means for those folks to see/answer the survey as well, especially all the folks shopping for a coach  :)

ETA there is a rudimentary Poll option when you create a new topic (it's at the bottom).  It's a single question per poll, multiple choice and you can either force a single answer or allow more than 1 answer to be selected.  An end date can be set.

Depending on the MC survey, Foretravel might be able to come close to duplicating the same survey here on Foreforums to capture data from potential new Foretravel owners.  I would suggest one of the questions be "Are you anticipating buying/ordering a brand new coach in the future?"  Clearly what someone wants to buy used isn't helpful to a manufacturer of new coaches.

To the membership - no, we are not involved in this at all.  Should Foretravel opt to use the polling feature here on the forum, please respect that they are trying to gather data on new builds, not what you hope to find used in the future  ;)  .

I filled out mine, pretty much selecting the smallest/cheapest selection at very step.

But honestly, if I ever need something other than my current coach, it will be smaller than that.

Filled mine out but the survey pushed toward a coach that was still too big and complex. No place for no slides and shorter then 32 feet. The coach I wanted and now purchased is under 30 foot and no slides. No place to put that in the survey. I would say a under 30 foot class a with no slides to two slide options built to the old 7320 style of wood is perfect for a smaller coach. Too late right now for me as I ordered then found aa used born free.

I filled it out, too, but there is no way we could ever afford a new coach. I realize that SurveyMonkey doesn't allow for a detailed survey, but there could have been a few more options. The only real change I'd make to our coach in the floorplan would be to take 3-4" out of the bathroom and give it to the bedroom.
