The Rogue Armored Toy Hauler is an awesome RV for those looking to have all the comforts of home, including a garage for your toys, while traveling. This is a large RV with plenty of space and sleeping spots for several adults. We have had up to 8 adults live comfortably for extended periods while traveling. 2 bathrooms, one main and one half, offer convenience. The trailer has many options including outdoor kitchen area, 2 slide outs, full size refrigerator, 5500 onboard generator with remote start button, gas tank with nozzle for fueling your toys and running the generator, large rear door that also acts as a patio area with metal railing system, dual bunks in rear area with another separate kids bunk, washer/dryer hookups, outside hose connections for washing the mud off you and your toys and much more.

I'm going to keep this review short. Om currently renting this trailer from the owner. Its set up on a on concrete residential backyard slab. Ots is the absolutely worst built piece of garbage you could buy. At over 100k to purchase brand new the amout of poor craftsmanship is appalling. The cabinets are so cheaply made, the floor is bowing and buckling on the bathroom and the insulation is almost non existent. In my life I've owned 7 RVs from truck campers to a class A motorhome so I'm giving my honest opinion. This trailer series is disgustingly built with only profits in mind and not the consumer.

This is the worst mistake I've ever made. Build quality is a joke to say because there is no quality involved. This is a kick in the crotch to say the least. Did you Build this on December 24th at 9 PM? Not 1 plumbing connection at P traps connected correctly or any other position of the plumbing, so water damage is profound. Cable TV connections are all crossed and have never worked, Thank goodness for Roku TV`s I bought because the one installed didn't work. This thing is a disaster. No way I would ever buy another product Forest River produced. Or any other product they have any influence over which from my understanding is vast. Forest River is a group I wish I would have never met!!!!!!

My 2021 Hyperlite 2815 has a decent size garage but very little storage room, so living in it for more than a week at a time requires planning. The over all quality is better than expected. Mine is built like a tank. Towing it it's very steady (with a 2500HD, not so much with a 1/2 ton). Factory support is not the best. I had a blowout and damaged the fender. Emailed and called and left messages for XLR three days ago and still no response.

Pros: We purchased this unit due to the floor plan and we love the layout. The trailer has nice features and we opted to have the second AC put in as the one would just not cut it in the TX summers. Interior colors are modern and the furniture is fairly comfortable. There is adequate storage inside and it comes with storage containers in all the cubbyholes and cabinets. Bathroom is the main reason we got this unit as its really good sized and has a large shower. Fireplace is great and works really good without the need of the furnace in cold weather. Cons: We had to have the main AC replaced after 1.5 year, the toilet had to be replaced at the same time, The wallpaper is bubbled throughout the trailer as well. The biggest complaint is the underbelly plastic panels blew off during a trip and Forest River will not fix or replace after the 1 year warranty. Customer service is not helpful at all and they stopped all communication with me after the 3rd email. Apparently after a lot of research many people are having issues with the plastic underbelly panels coming off after the first year of ownership and good luck getting help or finding any replacements.

After owning my forest river salem cruise lite for 2 and 1/2 years my slideout failed and would not go back out. It was also digging into the floor. After talking to lippert and forest river on parts and manufacturing both sides blamed each other. No one would take responsibility and just blamed me for failed systems. I had nothing to do with the assembly or parts of camper but Dean Blylee of forest river said it was my fault cause I used my camper too much. I would not recommend buying a forest river camper because it has cost me 4500.00 to fix just the slide after going camping 8 times in it. They will prob respond to this but they really do not care. As the owner of my own business I am glad that I do not treat people this way. All they care about is money not people they deal with. Sad sad business to be in. I will be putting a different slide system on my unit and will never deal with any of these companies again and I suggest you do not either.

Our Cherokee Wolf Pup 16FQ is just the perfect size for 2 adults. We downsized in 2021 from a 27’ Newmar Class A coach to this little camper and could not have been happier with our decision. I towed our Pup with my 2013 Honda minivan and had no problems utilizing a sway bar and a load leveler. This model makes very good use of a 16 ft. camper. I have removed the very uncomfortable original sofa bed and replaced it with a full queen size mattress. We have seen other 16FQ owners who have replaced the fold up with a real mattress also. I added a custom-made removable backrest to rest on the bed. The 16FQ floorplan is wonderful and includes a large 11 cubic foot 12V refrigerator that can run off the installed solar panel and battery for days! The fold down rear bumper rack is perfect for strapping on bikes, coolers or whatever else you need to take along! I have added lots of extra small storage shelves to our Pup to keep favorite things within handy reach, including, one above the stove built for a toaster oven. I wish I had replaced the factory tires sooner. The original tires, I recently learned, were only rated for speeds up to 65 MPH. Fortunately, a recent tire blow out didn’t damage the camper, and our camper now has quality replacement tires installed in 2023. I have done dozens of little upgrades to ours to make camping more fun, but the 16FQ is a good solid little camper!
