    Spec’s on ROOST43: Hitch Weight: 3,480 CCC: 2,421 UVW: 16,359 GVWR: 18,780 Length: 43’9” Height: 13’5” Fresh Water: 57 gal Grey Water: 53 gal (2 tanks = 106 gal) Black Water: 53 gal (2 tanks = 106 gal)
  • Forest River knocked it out of the park, they really nailed it on this beauty.
  • @enyoc3d
    great review! i think they should have gone the mini split A/C route. that'd be a great trailer to park forever. I'd plumb it to the site with real toilets and bypass the tanks.
  • @dbsmithy
    Josh the RV Nerd had the numbers. The end couch was not a fold out bed. It was all storage. He explained how the couch will store in travel.
  • WOW I really love it when R-V manufacturers do some out of the box thinking instead of playing it safe with the same old thing , JD you found a unicorn
  • @gazzarip
    tiny home builders have been building these 5th wheel homes for 7 yrs now. one i seen used a circle stair case another was a beautiful bathroom with a soaker tub. Absolutely amazing
  • This is fantastic. It’s one of those “I didn’t know I needed this” till someone said “hold my beer” !!!!!!
  • Best and most beautiful destination Rv I have ever seen. Feels like a cozy home when you walk in. hats off to Forest River...you guys n\knocked it out of the park.
  • A Destination RV with respectable basement storage.! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Now THAT is tempting.
  • @imthinkinrbz
    As a weekender, I would buy this without hesitation. This thing is gorgeous.
  • @olebloom1641
    Works great as a cabin. Park on a cement pad, rodent deter it, skirt it, hook to septic and well. I'd four season it as well.
  • I actually like this! Smart placement on the washer and dryer.
  • @tvengineer77
    I'd love to know how that couch slide works with the sectional. Doesn't look like it has enough room to move in.
  • @sidx001
    Wow! Triple axel for 18780 GVWR? That could be considered to be overkill, however when you look at where the axels are in relation to the pin box, it's probably more for stability when stationary than for load bearing on the road. Love the concept, the queen in the modified loft is really cool, love the half bath off the master and the loft above the living is wonderful. That's a pretty small fresh water tank though for a destination type RV...I would have expected something nearer 100 gal. Wind drag would be a concern, but if it's meant to be a tow and drop type of RV, then potential wind drag is only an inconvenience while you're towing it to a location. Really nice concept, and I really like the out-of-the-box thinking by Forest River.
  • @bcrawford9072
    I need it with a regular door or patio to protect the sliding door. I think I would think really hard on it with one of those things.
  • Ohhhh myyyy god!!!!!! We are in love with this destination trailer. I would be proud to live in this.
