New Toy Hauler

[twbronco]

I'm looking at purchasing a new 2016 Keystone Raptor Toy hauler 355TS. Good or bad?

Sounds like you are in the perfect position for a trailer like this! Enjoy!

Thanks, not worried about pulling it as I have a 2014 Ford F-350 long bed 6.7 diesel. This will be my first toy hauler with slides. I have heard they have been changing a lot on the construction of slides and I cant get a straight answer from any of the dealers.

My sentiments also. That is exactly why I chose to stick with a smaller trailer. I have stood in the big 5th wheels on the dealer lot thinking "this would be awesome." But even more frequently I have been in the driver's seat of my truck telling my wife, "I am glad I didn't have to tow a huge trailer through that....(muddy road, hair pin curve, steep off-road down hill, cramped gas station, etc.)

I looked at that model and liked the floor plan but it didn't meet my two main specifications. It is almost 18000 lb loaded (dully territory) and it only has an 11 foot garage. I went with the 332TS instead.

See my write initial review here. 332TS

I like my 2015 Impact keyston toy hauler , with my 2500 LML Chevy Its pushing the limit for GRVW . I know when I load the Harley in the garage it takes some weight off the truck.

Looks like an awesome RV. I almost jumped up to something bigger than our current 23' Sandstorm. However, I started double-checking the salesman's numbers and I quickly realized my 2500 HD Duramax was going to be way overloaded. The 355TS has a shipping weight of 14,180lbs. By the book, that is going to require quite a truck to tow. Nonetheless, I see people pulling huge rigs with a truck like mine (and a boat behind it too) so I'm not sure what to believe.
