Well after weeks of searching, looking at dozens of travel trailers and visiting 10 dealerships, we finally found "the one."
Thanks to those who gave me your opinion on previous posts about my different options.
We ended up going with a 2017 Keystone Passport 2810BH Ultra Lite Grand Touring. It has everything the wife and I wanted. The quality seems to be very good, dry weight of only 5200 and tongue weight of 565. Spent a little more than we originally wanted but I think we will be pleased with this one.
Now, tell me some absolutes I need to buy for the TT. Things you can't live without in your TT. We are not new to the camping lifestyle, but will be new to doing it in style, lol.
1st. what tires did your new rig come with? E or G rated 12 ply or 10 ply? If not, throw them away and get some good tires or I made it a condition of the sale that they take the "tow master tires" off and replace them with Good Year "G" rated tires or no Deal!!
2nd. Surge protector
3rd. Good Sam Emergency Road Side service and Emergency assistance policy.
4th. Reese Dual Cam hitch
5th. replace the original water pump with a Shur Flow pump to get a quiet and positive pump.
