Don-I am unable to make a clickable link but the topic is in the Forest River forum under Prime Time fifth wheels. They make the Crusader. A post was made by RV Guy describing the different types of covers for the bottom of the slide and that they are transitioning away from Darco. The Darco looks similar to the weaved material used in home siding. Supposedly it will breath but not allow water but I don't think that it will prevent water from attacking the wood bottom. If I had noticed it before buying, I would have passed.
Do a search for "Slide out /underside wearing". It began August 11. You can also do a search for "Platokidd" He started the topic. I am not Platokidd. There are pictures of the problem.
So, your equating your Prime Time issues to being the same problem with all Forest River products?
Based on that assumption my 2005 Cedar Creeks slide outs should all be totally rotted through. Sorry, my trailer is totally solid. It has finally developed a couple of squeaks in the bedroom floor after 9 years of use. Does that count as a rotten floor problem?
