looking at a springdale 294BHSSRWE

Lowest advertised price for the Springdale model I saw was $21k. That's in the price range of Passports, Bullet Premier, and Tracer. Outback/Lacrosse are $24k-ish, and OR higher. Prices/equipment are crowded in the $18-$25k transaction price range.

If you like the Springdale, it should be a solid RV. Keystone makes good products. PDI means everything for any RV.

BCP,
Try to find one with the 15k A/C I think you'll be move comfortable.

If you have the Max tow or HD payload package, sure.

I much prefer something like the PrimeTime Tracer 3150 at similar weight (smaller tanks, though) and probably price. Or Open Range Light 305. If you have the HD payload package, then Lacrosse 318, Outback 312 are my top two.

My TV is good to go. I really don't want too much over 30'. Trying to stay within my storage guidelines... The Springdale has a great bundle... Power stabilizers. Outdoor kitchen, sealed underside. Tanks heated...

Springdale is considered an entry level line. Traditional stick and tin construction. Most of the comments I have read have been positive. Alot of camper for the price. Outback, Primetime, and Lacrosse are a step up in price. Open Range is several steps up in price. If you have the ability to tow the weight I would not hesitate.

Similar price level units from other manufacturers are Wildwood/Salem, and Puma. I'm a fan of Wildwood, this time of year they come with power stabilizers, power tongue jack, stainless appliances, power awning at the same price range as Springdale so check those out as well. Wildwood/Salem offer essentially the same floor plan. http://www.holmanrv.com/default.asp?page=xInventoryDetail&id=348172&p=1&f=&make=&vtype=&cat=&s=Year&d=A&i=&l=&t=&sq=Wildwood&vg=&vt=&family=&brand=&year=&model=&sd=&fAmtRange=&floorplan=&length=&weight=&lat=&lng=&miles=&sleeps=

BCP, I've got a 2010 Springdale 291 with rear kitchen and slide. So far so good. It's comfortable and the previous owner ordered it with many extra toys.

did a quick check on google and couldn't find out much information. evidently aluminum sided,wooden framed? TPO or rubber roof? if the latter I don't want it.
