hardwall

[moonner2]

Can someone tell me how much extra a hardwall 27 foot Keystone Springdale would be versus an aluminum model....and does it translate into more trade-in value in the future ? I like the looks and it appears to be more rigid in construction.

How much 'extra' as in price?? That's kind of difficult to answer since pricing can vary based on the model and dealer location, etc.
If I remember correctly, the fiberglass/hardwall is/was an optional feature on the Springdale & "should" (logically) increase trade-in value too.
You might try the NADA site, using a previous year's model... http://www.nadaguides.com/RVs
should give you a basic idea on re-sale price difference between the two exteriors. As an added note, the fiberglass is typically a bit heavier
(weight) than the aluminum siding if all other construction is the same.

Hope this helps.

Thanks......I checked on a 2012 used model and it appears the hardwall option would cost about $2000.00 dollars more than standard aluminum siding. If anyone has purchased a hardwall in the recent past I would appreciate it if you could let me know approximately how much extra it cost on a 266 model.
