I believe they are a west coast model. Keystone makes East and West coast slightly different. If you go to http://www.keystonerv.com/ and select your brand and then specs you can go back several years (very bottom of page) and see slight differences. This is just a guess so if someone else has more info please chime in. Hank

They made both models in 2011 ... RK is Rear Kitchen and RL is Rear Lounge and are much different lay-outs. As for East and West coast models according to the spec sheets there are slight differences in weight capacities so they must have different suppliers for options. Floor plans look the same.

but, are they made on the west coast? which would
mean that I would need to go west to purchase?
can't look at the web site right now 'cause I'm

No, it just means that the ones you are looking at were made on the west coast. East coast models are available also. Both models are 2011 or earlier and limited to dealer stock.
