Since you're looking at Coachmen you might want to take a look at the Coachmen Apex Nano, specifically the Nano 187RB which is the same floor plan, length, and weight as the Clipper 17FQ. I don't own one but do own a Coachmen Freedom Express 192RBS and I suspect if you looked at the details of each you'd find the Nano to be better constructed, better finished trailer than the Clipper and more similar to an Apex or Freedom Express. Although the Nano is not much shorter than my own FE it is much lighter, and narrower, my only real concern being the Nano's single axle vs a dual axle which in turn translates into a much lower CCC (Cargo Carrying Capacity). Despite that concern I've been through a Nano and I've otherwise liked what I've seen in comparison to my FE.

We have a FREEDOM EXPRESS 191RB that we like a lot.
The extra 2 feet is nice.
I see the FQ has a walk around bed that was what sold us on ours.
We spend as much as two weeks at a time in our slide in and are very glad to use the Coachmen after that 🙂

Hello Terry
My family and I are enjoying our first season in a Coachmen Clipper. Ours is the 17BH and we tow it with our Grand Cherokee. We're having a blast and really enjoying the trailer without any major complaints. We're actually loading it up right now for another trip into the Rockies this weekend.
The quality seems to be on par with other TTs out there. Not amazing but certainly sufficient considering the lower price point of the Clippers.
There is a Forest River Coachmen forum but it is not specific to the Clipper line as far as I remember. I'm pretty sure there are at least a couple other Clipper owners on this forum too.
Enjoy your trip and let us know how you like your new trailer.
