260 RD Peeves
So after spending about a month in our new unit, here is a list of peeves that need attention. Keep in mind we prefer dry camping over RV parks, but will plug in when too hot or cold.
Wine rack - replaced with paper towel holder and considering adding a pop a plate as there is room
AV head unit - why did they not orient it towards the couch? The remote can't work at 90 degrees, lol. I will probably relocate it to face the couch.
Key holder hidden by door - relocated to under the AV head unit for easy access and will probably remove the door since the head unit will be there
Stove light and fan - so apparently they expect you to cook only when plugged in...no 12v light and fan, so will probably add one.
Bathroom towel bars - only one bar and one ring, ordered one more of each, OEM to match correctly.
Blue light switch - way too bright at night, looking into some kind of cover that flips up and down
Stinky slinky storage tube - located so that must access before slide out extended, maybe relocate or re-orient for easy access
Speakers - no surprise they are lousy, will replace as usual...
Stove - how do you clean under the burners of the Furrion? Other units we could remove the plate but this one is a mystery that the manual does not address. Model# FS21DB4A
Anybody else find similar issues and what did you do about them?Last edited by Grandesigner; 10-11-2020 at 02:49 PM.

We have a Furrion, but not your model. First remove the grates, then try to remove the louvre piece at the back. The sheet/metal plate that remains should slide either forward or back to release the clips that are gripping the rest of the unit. It won’t be an easy or smooth “slide”, you might need a tap with a rubber mallet, but it’s definitely NOT a “pry it up” situation.

We have a 260 RD and are going on our second year with it. I love everything about it and am not bothered at all about any of the things on your list. It is a great RV. Built well. Great layout. Not a single thing to fix or get warranty coverage for. Maybe you are a little picky. From what I have seen from other RV manufacturers things, could be much worse.

I don’t think you’re picky...we quickly forget the tent and lantern days, cooking in the dark-especially spring and fall! That said, we have the older, dungeon-dark interior model so we’ve purchased many battery operated, motion-sensor, LED lights. They’re easily mounted in any number of ways (Velcro, magnets, adhesive). Since we bought the trailer, I’ve noticed the available models are getting more battery-efficient and brighter (with more lumens).

Actually, almost all we do is boon-docking. We hardly ever get to be plugged in. No problem.
What changed for the new GD...
