New Passport owner
Exciting times, I am a few hours away from taking delivery of my new Passport 2670BH. This will be my 2nd TT, and my first brand new trailer. We upgraded from a older Trailmanor 3023 pop-up. While that trailer was cool, and taught a lot about travel trailers, we got tired of the setup time, the maintenance of a older trailer, and the lack of floor space. I am really looking forward to the automation built into the Passport, the floor space with the huge slide, and modifying it to make it our own. I see travel trailers as not only a way to get away from it all, and relax with the family, but also a outlet for organizational creativity. Years of owning the trailmanor have taught us how to be conservative with everything we put in the trailer. We had to really think hard about where everything was stored, how to fix certain things, or how to modify something to maximize comfort and enjoyment of the trailer. Items with dual purposes have always peeked my interest when it comes to RV accessories. As well as things that fold up, retract, transform, to save space. While I expect the Passport to be more forgiving with storage space and ease of ownership, I do expect that there is loads of potential that my family and I plan to take advantage of. My last trailer had lots of memories, but it was time to move on. I am ready for the new one, and looking for to be part of this owner community. So, with that, Hello Keystone owners!

Welcome to the forum from Southern MD. I'm now on my 2nd Passport. 1st was a 238ML it was just too small since it didn't have a slide. Now we own a 2810BHS and are loving the space. Your 2670 is very similar. Make sure you check all the water connections. One of mine worked its way loose last weekend. It was our 5th trip. Lots of good information and people here. Have fun.

Welcome and congrats on your new coach. I bought our Bullet (the Passport's twin) 2 months ago as a surprise anniversary gift for the wife (and kids) and can't believe how much storage these RV's have, especially our bunkhouse model. After about 4 trips in it so far this season, I can tell you that proper distribution of weight in the trailer is key to a comfortable and safe ride. Expect about 12% tongue weight AFTER all your cargo and stowables are loaded. First trip out for me had more sway than I anticipated as I loaded up the back bunks with most of the travel gear. Now, it's equally proportioned on each side of the axles and the ride is much more enjoyable.
Happy camping!

to the forum! Lots of memories in store I'm sure. If you're looking to "minimize", compact etc. look into Magma cookware. I bought one for the RV, liked it so much bought another to use at the house. It may or may not work for you but we like it so far (induction in the RV).

Another new 2670BH owner
We just agreed today to purchase a Passport 2670BHWe from a dealer across the state from us. This is our first trailer in quite a while and we are looking forward to many adventures. Of course, we would welcome any firsthand tips and tricks from Passport owners, especially those with the 2670BH.
Cheers.

ElliotM, Welcome to the forum from Southern MD. Lots of good info here. If you have questions just do a search. Do a real thorough pre-delivery Inspection (PDI). Make your 1st trip close to home so if you forget anything you can stop by the house and pick it up. Most of all, Have fun.

Documenting how to operate our trailer
OK, it's been over a year now, and I am finally documenting the trailer operations for my wife and family. I am using Microsoft OneNote, as I use it for organizing just about everything, and it is very easy to add photos and other info, plus it is great for sharing.
The operations is far from being fully documented, but I wanted to share this out. Please feel free to use it for your own use, and I would welcome any feedback. Once it's complete I will share it on a broader scale in case anyone finds it helpful. Here is the link.
