I replaced my Class-C Coachmen Freelander 26SO with a Forest River FR3 25DS last year. We chose the 25-footer over the other longer units due to the same Ford V10 power plant and tranny combinations used in each. We drove from LA to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Virginia Beach, then Niagara Falls, NY. The gas rig provided about 8-miles per gallon on both outbound and return leg to LA. Because of the same power/tranny combination in all three FR3 units I opted for the shorter one to ensure that the added tonnage would not be a drag when passing vehicles or climbing hills or mountains. We did lose our main slideout on day-4, which cut our trip by one week. Emergency repairs were not available during our stay in NY. Warranty repairs were effected upon our return to homebase. The second (bed) slideout failed this week and will be repaired next week using my extended warranty. I hope this is helpful in making your selection.
