i have to disagree with some of Mike Up's opinions.
first, i've had my Roo for nearly 7 years now and have had some minor issues that were all fixed under warranty. still no bunk leaks.
second, i bought mine in Chicago and towed it out to California. i contacted FR, who found me numerous local dealers that were happy to do the warranty work. one didn't even sell FR products, but did warranty work on them.
third, FR isn't the only manufacturer that can't force their dealers to do warranty work on units they didn't sell. it's a pretty common practice, no matter the brand. i've even read posts from Jayco owners who have found the same issue.
fourth, we found the Roo/Shamrock hybrids to be as well built as the Jayco and Starcraft ones. many others agree.
fifth, FR does offer a 2nd year factory warranty for an extra $150. they make it optional for the customer.
i don't want to diminish Mike Up's bad experiences, it can happen.
but all brands have their lemons and fans and haters.
for us, we've had the complete opposite experience with our Roo, as MIke Up did.
just wanted to offer a different perspective.
