Forest River Legacy 2019

Looking to purchase my first rv. Looking at a Forest River Legacy. Any reasons I should look at a different models? Would like to stay under $200,000 and willing to go used but no more than a few years old.
  • In My opinion Forest river is ****. I would go for a nice used pusher like a Newmar, Tiffin, Winnebago. We picked up our Tour for less than your 200k budget with only 24k on the odometer. It's not even broken in and all the manufacturing bugs are worked out if it. There are reasons you see a lot of used Legacy's and Palazzaos with real low mileage. like 3k on them, for sale.
  • Agreed. FR stuff in general is a crapshoot. You could get a good one or a turd and there is no consistency quality wise at all.

    Get a used coach that has already had all the warranty bugs taken care of.
  • Thanks you guys! I was looking at a used Tiffin but the specials they give on new swayed my vision, lol!
  • If the FR check keeps arriving in Omaha every month you’ll see no improvement.
