| I am a member of a yahoo group, foretravel. everyone is complaining about the bulkhead separation that is occurring in the 1992-2002 models of the foretravel motorhome. this is a separation which is occurring due to the bulkhead pulling away from the main frame. it is feared that if not corrected serious injury or death could occur. *tr | |||
