Getting ready to roll!
Greeting from Texas! Purchasing our "retirement" weekend travel trailer next week. Have shopped around and found a floor plan the wife loves and we are keeping it simple. Keystone Springdale Summerland 2450. I'll be pulling with my 2004 Ford F150 XLT. Hoping we made a solid choice, looks like it's right for us. Somewhat disturbing to see comments about quality on the downslide with a lot of the RV industry. But looking forward to getting out to some of the Texas State Parks and doing short trips to start. Glad to have found the forum - will be pouring over threads, lots of good info here!

Welcome to the forum from Kansas City, MO! Glad you're here! Not everyone has RV horror stories.

Welcome from one Texan to another. We just moved ours further inland in preparation for the impending weather.

Welcome to the forum from a fellow Texan. Yes, quality on todays RVs is very iffy, but, make sure you check everything at purchase and continue to stay on top of it....they are a load of fun so don't worry. If you have problems you belong to the best forum around so ask away.

Welcome from Minnesota! We have had almost no issues with ours but it's smaller so I suppose there are fewer things to go wrong. We have a lot more problems keeping our "bricks and sticks" house from falling apart and we don't haul that down the road every other weekend.
