Surveyor Travel trailer

Never heard of that brand. Based on your description I would never consider one either. Forget this one and move on.

Seriously? The Surveyor series of trailers has been a staple of the Forest River product line for as long as I can remember. :R Quality isn't any better or worse than most other brands.

I've had one for 3 years and we've been extremely happy with it. There is little trim stuff with every brand - mine didn't have anything like you are describing.

My first camper was a Surveyor 305. Awesome trailer wish I never got rid of it. Had for 3yrs and besides a short on an exterior light never had an issue.

My parents bought one 2 years ago and never had any issues with it and now I have it and it is a great trailer.

I'm in the "Happy Surveyor Club". We bought ours earlier this year and have been using it quite a bit. No major issues. Overall, my wife and I felt that it was a higher quality, better finished trailer than most of the other Forest River, Keystone and other brands we looked at in the sub-$30k group.

The model we were looking at is a 265 rlds

Sounds like it was a one off. In my opinion the Surveyor is of better quality than a lot of the other models out there. Mine is now 10 years old, have never had a problem. The outside has scuffs and scratches, but the inside still looks new.

I started my rv career in an older Surveyor SV235rs. It had a rear slide. I am told the line was dropped for awhile, and when Forest River brought it back, it was a mid/high level trailer. We looked at a few before choosing our current rig, which we bought this year.

We have a 2012 Surveyor SV264RK Select. We are totally happy with it. At our age we'll quit RVing before we get rid of it.
