Hi guys, I think I have narrowed down my toy hauler choices to either the Forest River LM3814 40' or the Eclipse Attitude F34CRSG 34'. Is anyone towing either of these around? I would love to get opinions from actual owners.


Thank you!

The forest river GVW is 19,000 lbs. Too much for your current truck. I am looking at a KZ Inferno 3710T which has a GVW of 16,000 lbs and I am second guessing myself on this one. I have a 2011 GMC Denali HD, and I am right at the limit. I know it will pull more weight, but I also like to be in the range of the max towing capacity.

I hear that. Honestly I am thinking of going with the Attitude because it's not as heavy and small enough I can fit more places. But that HUGE kitchen/living area on the Forest River LM3814 is soooo nice!

Stick with the Attitude, the factory is local and gives good support.

I have the attitude. Next week is my first trip with it so can't give you too much info other than it fits my toys and had everything I was looking for. Towing it with a 3/4 ton dodge shortbed.
