Meanings of Model Designations

I have searched on topics I could think of, and looked through the most recent posts on Keystone questions, and can't find anywhere that has discussed this.

Is there a list of what the letters in the model numbers mean? You can figure some of them out, I think. Obvously WE is Western edition. My 327 RLK has a Rear Living area, possibly the K is for the kitchen in the middle, or the fact that there is a middle bar with the sink. RKS seemed to be Rear Kitchen.

When reading other's posts on this forum, I'd rather not have to go to the Keystone site and look up their floorplan, if it's even there. Can we (or have we already) come up with a list of what these things mean?

My guess is RLK is for Rear Living, King. Do you have a king bed?

In the past you could tell the lengths & floor plan by the number & letters, nowadays I'm not sure even the manufacturer knows what they mean.

What we have found:
1. They are not specific.
2. They are not consistent.
3. It's more fun making up your own definitions.

I think this is probably true. Since there isn't really any rhyme or reason to the designations that I can find. Some are fairly obvious, some aren't. If you think Keystsone is gobbledygook, look at the other manufacturers - they have no bearing to the trailers whatsoever.
