Model Number Meaning

OK, probably a useless question but...

Does anyone know if there is any significance to the various model designations? I contacted Keystone and the person I asked said no, but my assumption is for my model at least, that TS is the triple slide designation. no idea on what 375 preceding the TS stands for, if anything. I figure someone here will know one way or another!

Thanks!

Your question has been asked and discussed a few times in previous threads/posts. If you type in "model designation" in the Search box, you'll find what has been talked about before.

Many times but not always the numbers have to do with the length. 375 to me would be 37.5 feet give or take. This is not always the situation as mine says 31 which is somewhat close to the box size as the over all length is over 35 feet.

I think the #s use to mean more than they do modern day. The whole length of RVs is kind of all over the map. Sometimes, it's front of cap to rear bumper, sometimes king pin to back of trailer, other times? Who knows. Then, there's the whole way they are advertised by dealers or private party sellers. The only true way to know if bring a tape measure with you.

The letters can be of some use. Here are a few that "usually" mean something:

QB = quad bunk
RL = rear living
BH = bunk house
KS = kitchen slide
FL = front living room
BS = bedroom slide
RLS = rear living room slide
RBDS = rear bedroom double slide
QBDS = quad bunk double slide
FK = front kitchen

And for us out West. WE means western edition, made in Oregon. Where they seem to get the dump valve stickers labeled correctly, most of the time.

Thanks for all the replies, and yes, I did find other forum topics re model designation *after* sending mine out.

I've also been told on the newer trailers, the number designation is the inside square footage of living space with the slides out. That would make sense on our 28SGS.

Not associated with length on the Keystones....it's square footage.

375TS would be 375 sq ft with three slides

That's great info.... I never knew that but it makes sense.

It's funny how close the length is though because the trailer is 8' wide but then some parts have slides so it comes out close to an average of 10' in many cases. No wonder the confusion
