New Keystone Owner

Hello everyone, we just recently traded our Coachman Catalina for a Keystone Springdale 262RK and it is towed by a 2017 GMC 1500. We have only been RVing for 3 years but were ready for a bigger camper. We live just outside of Dallas and typically take weekend trips in the area.

If you're up this way let me know. Maybe we can share an adult beverage.

My parents gave us an older 5th wheel that we traded in on a Springdale 253. We are taking our first trip from Iowa into Canada and will come back back home to Yakima Washington.

We have tent camped for years so are nubbies at RV camping. Any advice would be appreciated. Our first hurdle was blowing our landing your fuse. It took us a while to finally find where the fuse was hidden behind the battery. Landing gear is now working.
