Hello All,
New member and looking to purchase a 04 Outback from the original owner. Anything to be aware of? This unit was used about once a year and driven about 50 miles each time. Tires have just been replaced. First question, 14 inch tires standard. Seems like they should be at least 15" but there doesn't seem to be that much room in the wheel well. FYI I previously owned a 26' Holiday Rambler. Thanks in advance.

cafirefhtr,
Visit the manufacturer's web site (customer service page) http://www.keystonerv.com/customer-service
Check for any "Recalls & Notifications" that may have affected the year & brand. Original owner should also know
what (if any) service recalls were completed. There was a Dometic brand refrigerator recall (industry-wide) which
included several production year's, but I don't know if it went back as far as 2003-2004. There's also a tab
(drop-down menu) for "Previous Year Specs" which may be helpful.

14" tires are still standard on some brands/styles, although it's typically not a problem unless you camp in areas
where ground clearance might be a factor. You might post a question in the travel trailer (or modifications) section
& our members can offer some thoughts/ideas for gaining clearance, raising the trailer [ie 'flipping the axles'], etc.

Hope this helps, and good luck with your decision.
Terri, the Chevy co-pilot
