Hi all!!

New to this forum. Been an RV year for almost 38 years. And all sorts of stuff from pop ups to 5th wheels.

Bought a 2021 F250 with a 7.3 gas engine. I was warned to stay away from diesels just due to the reoccurring high cost which pretty much seems to be the theme. This engine replaced the V 10. Pulls the living heck out of this trailer. The trailer weighs 11,800 pounds loaded. No issues at all…… Love it. We’ve only put about 6000 miles on the trailer and the TV this year so far. I guess we’ll see if it all holds together.

Hoping Keystone is better to us than forest river was. Tons of problems with that so we sold it and jumped into a 2021 keystone sprinter 37 foot. Love it.

Pretty much like every other trailer we have had, the factory build quality is pretty poor…… sad. We bought it for the floor plan and we wanted to travel now that I’ve retired. Fortunately I am extremely handy and can fix almost anything on these trailers. Done tons of updates to it. Overall, the design of equipment access is much better than the forest river products we had. Look forward to reading everyone’s post's!

Hello and welcome!

Congrats on the new Sprinter, and the new Ford!

I've heard that new 7.3 gas engine is a good engine.

Take care and have a good time!
