Re: Keystone Outback vs Venture SportTrek
Thank you all for your replies! I'm feeling a little more at ease now. ;) We've never spent this much on a camper before and I'm scared of having buyer's remorse later from running into unforeseen issues. It's a 2016 Outback 325BH. We'll be towing it with a 2002 F-350 Diesel. The truck is rated to pull up to 12,500 and this camper is 8,325 (shipping weight). So, there *should* be plenty of room for additional weight when adding our stuff/junk ;) and water. What do you think?? (I know our truck sounds ancient, but we purchased this truck last year and had almost everything rebuilt, so it runs like a champ!) This checklist is fantastic! I'm definitely bringing it with us and going through it when we go back on Monday!663Views0likes0CommentsKeystone Outback vs Venture SportTrek
Hi everyone, My husband and I have been looking into buying a travel trailer. He grew up camping and his parents are avid campers. However, this is our first experience buying a new camper. We have two kids (6 and 2), so we know we would like a bunk house, plus a few other features. Yesterday, we put a (refundable) deposit down on a 2016 Keystone Outback. It's absolutely beautiful and the quality of it seems great. So, what's the problem, right? Well, I ran across a Facebook page called, "RV Buyers Beware of Keystone Trailers" and started freaking out after reading through all of the issues. Now, I know any brand of trailer will have it's issues. However, I don't want to spend this much money on something that's only going to cause massive headaches and financial issues. What do you guys think? Is a Keystone Outback a good trailer? We were also interested in a SportTrek (about $5K less at another dealer), but the Outback's fit and finish seemed better. I'd really appreciate your feedback! If neither of these are good trailers, what is?? Thanks!4.8KViews0likes10Comments
