The GT5 is the 5 Series tier: 31-36 foot floor plans, the standard GT5 content package (chrome, dual A/Cs with heat pumps on most plans, 6,000-watt Yamaha generator, 200-watt solar, Firefly multiplex, Thomas Payne theater seating). The GT7 is the 7 Series tier, sitting above the GT5 with longer floor plans, more premium interior content, and richer standard equipment.

The FR3 is Forest River's other Class A gas product line with its own standard content mix and floor plan set. Pick the Georgetown GT5 for the mid-tier Georgetown feature package. Pick the FR3 if its current floor plan and standard equipment better fit your travel plans, or step up to the FR3 Plus for the richer FR3 content package.
Do I need a CDL to drive the Georgetown GT5?
No. The Georgetown GT5 is built on the Ford F-53 Class A chassis, which stays well below the 26,001-pound Federal CDL threshold across every floor plan. A standard passenger driver's license is sufficient to operate a Georgetown GT5 in every U.S. state. Any driver comfortable with a large truck or a full-size Class C should be able to drive a GT5 after a familiarization drive.
