Anyone have the Forest River Blue Ridge 3025?

I just happened to find one, but I don't know anything about the quality as compared to others. It is a 2011 model with a really good price. I love the floorplan (husband not so much).
Does anyone know if this model has the arched ceiling? Is it a tall enough unit if it doesn't. How does the sofa pull out into a bed? Are the lights on a switch, or do I have to reach up to turn them on? These are the things I can't find online.
I'm going to see it on Sunday, wish me luck!

Yep, I have one. Original owner.

I don't know what you mean by arched ceiling, but it's definitely a high ceiling in the Lounge and Kitchen area with a full height ceiling in the bedroom (I'm 6' tall and have no issues standing up in the bedroom).

The sofa is a "traditional" pullout sofabed with an Aerobed air mattress (at least that's how it came from the factory). I like the Aerobed because it has the 120v fill/drain control so it's easy to use and put away.

The overhead lights in all the rooms are run by a switch mounted to the walls. The reading lights in the entertainment center, above the rear recliners and sofa, above the bed, and the light above the kitchen table are all individually switched.

It was a good value for the money, but if at all possible you might want to step it up a bit for the 2013 (?) or newer models. They have the 6-point auto leveling and the color-matched mouldings around the slideouts (as opposed to the black rubber mouldings mine has).

Your signature doesn't say what kind of tow vehicle you have, but I hope it's capable. This model runs heavy (especially in the pin). It is definitely 350/3500 territory.
