Dwight,

I remembered one new member posting about his purchase...
http://keystonerv.org/forums/showthread.php?t=14543

Not much info available yet, but as you said, that line was just introduced for 2014.

We saw one at Hershey - very nice. Sales guy told us that Impact and Carbon were a 'more affordable' lower level version of fuzion and raptor...no corian, lesser grade fixtures etc. Priced much lower.

First post here, but definitely not new to forums. I looked around a good amount at different Toyhaulers, and for the price decided that the Carbon couldn't be beat. I ordered up a Carbon 387 last week with the following options: Second AC/Furnace, Garage Carpet, Garage Door Screen, Single Set of Bunks in Garage, Twilight Interior, some other stuff I can't remember. My girlfriend and myself are ecstatic to get the coach here and put it to work!

We went and viewed every Carbon floor plan available at the dealership and overall I was pleased with the build quality, as stated above the Carbon is what was the Raptor SE line up.

2013 F250 Crew SRW

Hey Im pulling my 14' CARBON 327 with a srw 2013 F250 6.7 Liter. It is an amazing truck worth a good look. Tows amazing although there is a bit of turbo lag at times. with that said the Deisel Exhaust Brake on 8% grades works fantastically! Holds speed set at whatever you desire without having to apply the brakes. Loaded my Carbon weighs about 13,500-14k...

bpyle311, sorry to hear of your misfortune on the roof and shower. Unfortunately those are two items that are identical on all makes and models of RV, even the high end stuff so I don't feel like that quality issue will be isolated to Carbon models. I have seen a few different threads on this board discussing the roof issue on various models, I have checked the roof on mine multiple times and all seems well but I will be double checking things over this weekend when I get the coach out for a trip.

As far as the 6.7L Power Stroke, they are an awesome truck. My dad has one and has been very pleased with it, I have the last engine the 6.4L and likewise have been pleased with it as well. I wish I could select the gears like you guys can on the six speed trans.
