Keystone Bullet Premier

[CampinEarls]

We are seriously looking at buying a 31BHPR. It pretty much has everything we are looking for in a TT, the only cons we can think of with it is, it has curtains instead of solid doors for the bedroom and bunkhouse....that's about it.

Maybe because this one is so new, But i'm having a hard time finding any reviews or testimonials about them.

This is our first TT, i've rented a couple times and that makes us realize we want our own, we've been researching for months and have narrowed it down to this one.

Is there anyone out there that has any experience with the Bullet line that can give me their opinions?

Thanks!

Nice job. The parts guy at Camping World is calling me back later this morning with a price on the new table today but I would bet a beer that the price is going to come back way too high and I will be following your mod for the table.

Dinette mod. This will raise the dinette a good 2 inches and will also provide more adjustability so that I can lower the inside feet more to help compensate for the slide floor height difference.

Here is how the original feet are threaded into the dinette base


The parts I picked up at Lowes


The all thread cut into 4-3" sections


The all thread threaded down into the dinette with a lock nut and washer and the sleeve threaded onto the top.


Finished foot

I am going to mod mine a little differently. I just left Lowes with the following supplies....
5/16 x 18 all thread
5/16 hex nuts
4 coupling nuts 5/16
My plan is to simply unscrew the original feet out of the dinette. The thread is 5/16. I am going to cut the all thread to desired length and then thread that into the dinette base. Then I'll thread the sleeve onto the threaded rod and then the original feet into the sleeve. Pictures to follow

Any pictures of this?

Let us know after you price it out. Wife and tried and tried to figure out a way to make the Table not lean to the inside of the trailer with out much luck. We need to add at least 1inch to the inside feet to make up the height difference between the slide floor and the main floor.

I brought some larger diameter adjustable feet with a longer threaded rod and I was able to add a full inch to the height of the table, more stable too now. The only thing is the thread ia larger than the existing one but a simple drill out and tap to the right size and you are in business. I did the whole job in less than half an hour.

Dang it, my wife said I was doing something wrong, now I have to admit it to her. The A/C fan was running the whole weekend, and she said I had it set up wrong, now I know that I did.

I too was impressed with the air mattress when I did my first walk through. Glad it's comfortable. Did you guys get the grill option? ( I didnt know their was one until Garysol confirmed it. Wonder how much it is to add on and is it really worth it? Also for those who have the comfort package and want the traditional dinette table, the good news you can order it from the dealer.

Thanks for the info on the awning. I was really wondering on how this design was going to handle winds...

[VirtualGarage]

On a side note, the weather this weekend hasn't been as good as last week and there's been lots of rain and wind. Instead of tilting the awning and bringing it in during big gusts, I left it out and fully deployed the whole time. When the wind caught the awning, it would fold back and release the pressure. A little worrisome when you see it for the first time, but reassuring once you realize that the awning is safe in the wind. It makes sleeping at night more comfortable and everything under the awning dry.

My father came and stayed in the Premier with us last night and slept on the air bed sofa. It was our first time using it and I was pleasantly surprised to find the built-in AC operated motor. It made inflating and deflating very easy and fast. Before that, I only noticed the battery operated pump they included. My father said the matress was very comfortable and much better quality than other air matresses he's used. We decided to keep the matress strapped to the frame rather than put it back in the bag when we folded the sofa. I'm really happy with the design!

Our 2-week spring break is over today and we're headed home this afternoon. We'll be heading out again Easter weekend.

Bingo! I am in my trailer now and that's exactly what it was. Thanks

Spent the afternoon "decorating" the bathroom in my Bullett today. I hung a towel rack and toilet paper dispenser along with a few other goodies. Everything went smoothly. Today was also the first time I towed our 31 any real distance and boy was that a pleasure. It towed and stopped so much nicer than our much heavier 31 Sprinter did.
1 thing I did find odd. I had the furnace on to warm the trailer up and I noticed the fan that blows through the A/C vents came on at the same time. Is this normal? I did not look at the thermostat book so maybe there is a separate fan switch that I missed.

Just picked up 3 new locks for my 31BHPR for $10 each. Two 1 1/8" and one 1 3/8" for the outside kitchen. I decided on the tubular style and was able to get them all keyed the same. If anyone is interested I got them from a local RV place that told me they would ship them anywhere.
