Last year my two front bags replacement were around $650.00. They had to pull the front wheels to do it. The tag bags were less. The bags are smaller and they were done without pulling the tag wheels. It seems that someone said that Foretravel bags were about $200.00 each. I would say 14 to 16 years are the life of bags and I am just guessing. I have owned my coach for over 3 years and do not know weather or not they were changed before I owned it. I have looked at several 03 Foretravel's and it looks like they needed changing. They looked to me that they had small age cracks in them, but they might go another several years. Best the change them because if they blow you will be on the side of road. I still have 4 bags that have not been changed. Newell has looked at them and said they look fine.
