Fiberglass roof. FR3 has rubber. Try getting a quote from a Georgetown layout you like from RVDirect...takes just a few minutes. They will have a very competitive price that you can use, but they don't carry FR3. Just my 2 cents and i know the just a bit more game can lead down a bad path sometimes.
X2 - this is good advice. RVDIRECT will give you a price point close to where you want to try and land. If you can get a dealer close to that price, you know you have a good deal. It's also a good way to get prices on comparable models and take about 5 mins. Excellent way to cut through the weeds. I really like Georgetown and looked hard that them when we bought ours. Couldn't get past all the carpet, but that's just my personal preference. They make a nice rig for the price. But I wouldn't let a FG vs TPO roof stop me from making a deal. TPO is an excellent roof material, lasts decades, easier and cheaper to repair and FG roofs can have their issues too. Tons of RV's out there with TPO roofs. Comparable models to the FR3 are - Winnie Vista, Newmar Bay start sport, Thor ACE, Jayco Precept, Coachmen Mirada, etc.
