Good Morning!

My name is Zack Chavez, I am new to the forums from the Albuquerque, New Mexico area. I am close to finalizaling the purchase of a 2017 Keystone Impact 351 by Fuzion. I joined the forums to learn more about the unit and any little hacks to fix engineering/factory flaws that may come about.

Thank you for having me!

Hey Zack retired to elephant butte N M from grants coal mine . I have the 311 impact with pin weight of 2700 . I had it on the scales today loade full water , Z force 800 and my Harley. Exceeded my truck weight by 400 lbs that's with 90 gallons diesel ever thing in the bed . I can say if the garage wasnt maxed out the pay load GVRW pay load would have been maxed .

Zack, Howdy;

Just a few miles further South from " roadglide ", I'm nearer to Caballo Dam.
Hope your Christmas was good and your New Years better.

Awesome, we're not far from one another! What truck do you have? I have a 2015 Chevy dually, duramax. I wanted to go back to a single wheel short bed, but after doing my research, I'll like need to stick with the dually. Edit, I just saw your signature!

Welcome to the forum Zack! You will find lots of good folks with lots of knowledge here.

I spent 1/2 my life in SE NM (Hobbs/Carlsbad), my son lived in Albq for a while along with several of his in law family, my daughter worked for UNM as a database analyst for several years and we still own a mountain home in Cloudcroft, so we have several ties to NM as well.

About to make the 100% final decision. Of course it’s not a small purchase, so my mind has been ‘nervous’ ha ha! Do you all feel $42k is a fair price for the unit? It’s a loaded 2017 351 Impact by fuzion, used four times, generator has 18 hours. Overall very clean, it definitely needs a deep clean interior and exterior as I’m picky. The bank appraised at $48k using a similar model as it’s impossible to find the unit within N.A.D.A., similar used units are listed for $46-49k at dealers. Attached are some pics.
