Flooded my new Laredo

After looking at the trailer a little closer, it appears that they laid a vinyl floor down on the entire trailer deck and just put the bedroom carpet over top of it. Hopefully this kept the water from getting to the subfloor. Time will tell I guess.

Mine is also like that and I think most trailers are since it's easier to just lay a complete sheet of vinyl over the entire deck and then install things like the walls, cabinets and then the carpeting options over the existing vinyl.

This is the third new Laredo we have had. We traded an 07 29RL for this one. Had to purchase from a different dealer than our local one in order to get a trailer with the options we wanted. So far I have had to repair more issues caused by poor workmanship during assembly in the first three weeks than I did in 8 years with the last one.
I am VERY displeased with Keystone's current quality. Once I get all their crappy assembly problems fixed, it will probably be a good unit, but I will be looking elsewhere when it come time to replace it.

Unfortunately, as a society our demands and emphasis on the bottom line has driven almost all sectors of manufacturing to the same goals even more than their prime motivation as profit already is and it's left to us a consumers to pick up the slack with extra due diligence.

For several decades (yes that's 10s of years) I only used the onboard tank and FW pump for water for fear of leaks, etc., but have in the last 10 or 15 years gotten away from that practice since I have yet to run into any previously feared problem. I guess I'm now toying with fate that at some point will grab the tender parts of my body and give me a "WAKE UP CALL" so to speak.
