The FTX was truly “the way to travel in style.” FTX was built from 1977to 1986. TVs, VCRs, dual roof air conditioners, icemakers, central vacuums, and more.
The FTX offered features not common in the RV industry at the time. In 1977 Foretravel celebrated ten years in business with the introduction of the FTX (Foretravel Ten). In 1974, they had pioneered the first use of a diesel engine in a conventional motorhome. The body design remained such that it would work for either configuration – all the way up to 1994. Then they shifted to rear-engine models (ORED, OREG). The earliest ones were front-engine models (OFED, OFEG). When they shifted to diesel power, they shifted to Oshkosh chassis as they were the most readily available heavy-duty truck chassis. Originally, Foretravels were built on Dodge van chassis, some were built on Chevy chassis and then truck chassis, mostly Dodge.
