Forester 3011DS questions

We have narrowed our search down and are leaning towards this model. We have a couple (lol) of questions and appreciate any insight.

For anyone who has this model or the Sunseeker sibling, how do you like it? Are you happy with it?
What features do you love and what do you not like so much?
Would you get the U-dinette or regular?
I am used to the day/night shades, how do you like the pull-downs?
4 door fridge with the icemaker or regular size?
Where to purchase? Has anyone used one of the internet companies that seem to be about $10,000 less than our "local" dealer?

We are thinking we want the option of the swivel chairs. Any reason not to get them?

Any other options we should consider or leave out? I am open to all thoughts, suggestions, ideas. I have already gotten such an education from this site. Thanks so much.
  • The swivel drivers seat would be good to sit and watch the television in that model (however, low to the ground), but I don't think you can get the power seat with it.

    Bigger refrigerator with ice maker would be nice!

    Good luck, that is a nice class C !
  • I guess I could answer some of your other questions even though we have a different model.

    I don't mind the shades at all.
    I don't think either dinette is all that great. Pick your poison.
    I installed a swivel passenger seat and love it.
  • We bought a smaller Sunseeker in 2014. Using RVDirect.com worked for us to get competitive offers from dealers in our region. We saved a lot, and I would do it again.
