Likes or dislikes on Keystone TT. Thinking of upgrading. Any reviews would be great.

We have a 2006 Keystone Sprinter 300 FKBS. We have had no problems with it and have used it (and stored it) in Northern Wisconsin; Creede, Colorado and now in Camp Verde, Arizona. We used it full-time in the summer only. Have had no problems with it as to leaking or any problem with the appliances. Have had people tell us it looks brand new, but we do take good care of it, as to cleaning and waxing it (has the aluminum exterior at least twice a season. About all we have replaced are tires. Read your manuals and instructions and keep them handy in one of the cabinets. Never know when you might have to check out something. Good luck in your camping experiences.

Thanks. We`re really excited to pick it up next Saturday.

2015 Keystone RV Passport East Coast 2810BH got this instead.

I have a 2015 Springdale that has all the same interior components as that one. Even the same color and pattern on the material. I don't know if the rest is similar, but I have been happy with mine.

No problems with anything since we picked it up July of last year.

Thanks everyone. We aren`t going to long term camp. We do a lot of weekends. 4 days is usually the most we go out at one time. The grand kids are getting old enough to go with us. Tired of blowing up the mattress on the couch every night. I would like the 2nd slide but not the price.

We've had our Summerland for over 3 years now. Yes, they're more basic units. But as far as problems, there haven't been many and were easy fixes . Done a few little upgrades but when you do them yourself, costs are cheap.

Summerland is the more basic brands by Keystone. If it has what you want, go for it. $18k looks like a fair price too.

That floor plan is very similar to my older unit, 2007, but where I only have the two bunks and overall, my TT is a bit shorter. However, the first thing that stands out to me is storage, specifically in regards to lacking a pantry area for food. If you are looking at a TT with permanent sleeping areas for up to 6, it would be good to have enough room to store enough food/cooking supplies along with all the ordinary kitchen utensils/pans/plates etc. Make sure you are comfortable with the existing storage before pulling the trigger.

As far as Keystone reliability, I have no experience there so can't comment.

I have a 2010 Keystone Hideout with a similar floor plan to the one you linked, but almost identical to NC's Jayco.

Quality seems pretty good, no major issues so far. From experience, try and find a camper with that 2nd slide in the bunkhouse. It's well worth it IMO.

Nobody?

Towing with a 2008 2500HD CCSB 6.0. Found one for 17995 at a different dealer.

Looks nice, I cannot comment on the Keystone but I'll tell you I didn't pay much more than that price in the link for our Jayco 32BHDS, same exact floor plan plus the second slide in the rear bunk area make a HUGE difference.
Not sure what you're towing with either, ours is pretty heavy.
