    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    UPDATE: My CC company called on Wednesday (05/18/2022) to inform me the dispute was resolved in my favor. I have a full refund of my purchase price and the Evolution has been turned over to the local dealer. I was under no obligation to turn the RTT over, but I want nothing more to do with FSR...

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    UPDATE: My CC company called on Saturday (04/16/2022). We have a response from FSR and my CC company requested a couple of additional documents before they make a final decision on the dispute. I was also sent the response from FSR. Sad response at best but speaks volumes to the type of...

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    Hey @dmulk I appreciate your input. I did not purchase from the local FSR dealer. I purchased directly from the FSR website. The local FSR dealer did offer an option to try and fix the RTT, but FSR has not accepted his offer. I have also looked at the tent and had calls with Logan and Abraham...

    RTT recommendation for family of 4

    Stay away from anything Freespirit Recreation. I've posted my experience with them. I'm looking to replace my FSR with either a CVT Mt. Hood or The Bush Company AX27. The AX27 is a sweet unit, but looks like it will be a bit too long for me to fit on the bed of my Super Duty and stay behind the...

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    @ttengineer The photos are attached to this post. See Tent Rear for how three corners look and close properly vs. any of the Tent Gap photos. Three independent companies looked at the issue and put their findings in a signed letter when they had no skin in the game and didn’t need to.

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    UPDATE: It's been almost a month since I initiated the dispute with my CC and 2.5 weeks since FSR received the documents from my CC company. No response from FSR. I do see that FSR has been running a sale on all their RTT's when other RTT vendors are getting full price. Interesting....

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    Thanks @NatersXJ6 . It doesn't specifically state on the FSR website what the trim is and in my conversations with them, they have never told me. They appear to be aluminum. As I previously noted, if the fix was that easy then why wasn't it taken care of at the factory prior to the "protective...

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    Thanks @ttengineer . I can assure you that I've never used a grinding wheel to clean the tent. If it was as easy a fix as you state, then surely the FSR dealer near me would have just taken care of it when they reviewed the issues with the tent and prior to putting their findings in writing.

    Freespirit Recreation (FSR) – 55” Evolution Issues

    Received my FSR 55" Evolution on Dec 9, 2021, and mounted it to the Front Runner load bars on my DiamondBack HD cover. It road around with me until Feb 12, 2022, when I had the opportunity to take my first overnight camping trip with the rig and RTT. First issue. Upon arriving at camp and...

    Overland Expo West or MTN West?

    Went to Expo Mt. West in 2021. I was told by the folks at the event last year, that West is larger. The temps for Mt. West were fine, but agree with @wyowandering. Only trees up near the buildings if you get one of those camping spots. Main camping area doesn't have a tree in sight and they...
