More Information! We have a Keystone Laredo 5th Wheel 2005 that is 8 years old. We had a crack in the pin box above the welds and when they pulled down the skin they found a few other cracks. Keystone claims this is not a manufacture defect and our insurance states it was not a sudden issue so no coverage.

Our rig is in Great condition and we love every inch of the rig. The only issue we have is we have lost some of the exterior graphic from time in the elements.
Maybe Keystone should be up front with the financial institutions and tell them that their rigs should not be expected to last longer than eight years...therefore a bank shouldn't carry a note longer than, say, 48 months. lol. What they are doing is shirking their responsibility.
