Foretravel Knowledge Bank

This has been said many times before, I know, it's worth repeating again anyway. I'm so thankful for this forum and the reliable knowledge shared here.

Another forum (more popular to most people by far) has so much incorrect and misinformation shared about the Foretravel motorhomes that I kinda feel sorry for those users asking the questions. I read it sometimes just for the entertainment value and suggest to other FT owners to post their questions here on Foreforums. It just might save them a lot of $$$ and time.

Just my thoughts. 🙂

Agree - the sheer mass of brand specific knowledge and data available here, AT NO CHARGE, is invaluable.  Our Forum library is already chock full of otherwise difficult-to-obtain documents, and Forum members continue to add to it every day.  The Forum SEARCH tool gives free access to the entire archived collection of every thread ever started here, all the way back to the beginning of the Forum.  Any person who owns a Foretravel coach does themself a disservice if they do not take advantage of the accumulated experience/wisdom contained herein.

When enjoying the benefits of this resource, please remember how much we are indebted to Steve and Michelle, without whom none of this would exist.

Funny I was unaware there was anyplace else to go. I never looked past here. Honestly never thought there was a need to look somewhere else. Everything Ive ever needed was right here. Nice people too.

I came to the same conclusion as Justin about the miss information concerning our coaches.
 THIS is the only place a person can get accurate information on our rigs.

I check this sight almost every day. I am amazed at the volume and accuracy of the information on this site. I know I'm not the only one who is grateful for all the hard work that is put into this site by such knowledgeable and dedicated people. We all are very lucky to have this site to help us with our Foretravel problems. Many thanks to the people who share their knowledge on here.
EMT living in Missouri. Recently purchased 1987 Gran Villa 36 Ft. long,460 Ford engine with 40,000 miles on it, new tranny has 3000 miles on it, coach has 75000 miles on it, new 5000 watt genny new fridge, new tires. Am both excited and scared out of my wits at the size of this beast. Love it but need time to become accustomed to it's size.  I'm sure it will take time to experience all the secrets this RV has to offer. Any and all advice gratefully accepted.
