RV Show

I’m going to spend a day (1-8-16) browsing around our annual RV show. There will be a lot of Keystone RV trailers there and I normally take pictures of the latest changes, especially original equipment tires, certification labels and any other design changes I might recognize.

If you have suggestions or requests now is the time to post them so I can take a copy with me for your answers.

I'll start posting my finds Sat evening.

My wife went to one today and set pics of three that she really liked. One Passport Grand Touring, one Winnebago Minnie and one Grand Design.

Edit: we have been toying with the idea of a class A/C. If she can find a travel trailer she really likes, I will be happy

Leaving for FL Sunday and plan on spending a day at the Tampa show. Hope there are a lot of Keystone units there even though this will be the maiden voyage for our new Cougar 303RLS.....

If you have time you should drop in at Lazydays RV at Seffner, FL. It's right there near Tampa. Huge RV center with 220 full service maintenance bays.

If I get a lot of notes, pictures and other information at the show I'm going to put it in a blog so it can all be viewed at once. I'll post the blog address here if I go that route. My blogs are advertisement free and void of spam.

We love the shows. We've owned this particular camper for two and a half years now - a real record for us in the past few years. We go just to see if we have camper envy yet, but so far we still have a keeper.

Me and the wife are going to the same show also. We are hoping to find a Sprinter 334FWLS to kick the tires on. We are really interested in the front living room concept. I've been watching the forum but haven't seen anyone post up yet on owning this model.

Hybrid, that is a lot of trailer for under 40K. The only thing we might do is try to get the four door refrigerator.

The price is interesting and with the quality of the Keystone that we have had with our VR1. The only part I have worried about is the storage space but I could be wrong. I hope to walk through one tomorrow.

I'm not going to provide any more feedback for this thread. I've gone over and over my information from the RV show and about 85% is unusable without the photographs for support. All my note taking was based on being able to do pictorial posts. All I have are some close-ups about labels & charts & tires. Nothing about installed options like dishwashers, sky lighting, hydraulic auto levelers and their systems.

SORRY!
