Hello all
We are the proud yet very slightly disappointed 181G owners ( bought 3 weeks ago)
The Good
Over all the 181G is a great trailer for those who have no kids and don't plan on having friends sleep in the trailer with them. We bought the 181g for the storage, we looked at a 177 but the lack of storage for us is huge, in aug we are leaving for a six month tour around North America and as you can imagine having a spot to put everything is very helpful. The back cooking area is fantastic, having the large sink in the back to clean and prep fish or clean laundry when we are off the grid is going to be nice. Also having the huge trunk is great for storing the items that you don't want inside.
The Bad
Our one complaint about the trailer is moisture, we have replaced the rear garage seal 3 times now and it still leaks water into the back garage/storage area. And we had mould growing on the wood divider between the rear storage area and the bathroom ( we have not used the bathroom or shower). We have a dehumidifier running 24 7 and that seams to have solved the problem. As for the rear seal our trailer place have sent away for another seal and are going to contact Forest River to see if maybe they have a better solution for the problem. The rear garage door is unfinished onside ( ruff fibreglass) we think this could be why the seals are failing so quickly. This would never stop me from buying a 181g once the problem is fixed it will be perfect!
