To be honest I am not sure what size is standard but I have never thought it was to small but then again we do not watch much TV when we are camping. As for upgrading to a larger TV the way they are framed in I dont think you will get anything much bigger in there without interfering with the swivel function of the entertainment center.

Are the electric jacks and option on the premiere? Did not see it listed, or is this something that the dealer can install?


Not available through Keystone that I am aware of. I am sure your dealer could install them but I wonder if the cost is worth the advantage.

In addition to adding cost, you will also be adding weight. The Premier is sold as an "ultra-light" so that's probably why those extras were left off. Keystone can then differentiate between their numerous models.

Unless there are specific reasons for wanting/needing electric stabilizer jacks, you can get similar performance at less cost, weight, and hardware by using a cordless drill. The cordless drill also lowers and raises the jacks much faster. It's just another thing to consider when shopping for an RV.


I went from a TT with the electric stabilizer jacks to the Premier without them. I find the manual ones a bit more stable and I can also raise and lower them faster with a cordless drill.

and speaking of the TV. I hooked up an HDMI cable into the main tv this weekend. What a major PIA! Why oh why could Keystone have not made the access whole behind the tv long enough so that you could reach all of the plugs on the TV?
Anywho I hooked the HDMI cable in and now I stream Netflix through my iphone (3g) and get to watch movies in 720. Works perfectly.

I could only find the 28RLPR at two dealers in New England. One near Manchester NH and one in Burlington VT. I got it in Burlington. A bit of a drive but saved a few thousand over the dealer in NH.

I also hooked up an HDMI to both tvs. And I have to agree, PIA! If you plan on doing it, after you remove the back cover and expose the small opening, look up into the hole, you'll see 2 Phillips head screws, take them out and the tv slides up. The back tv is the worst. I went ahead and replaced the front tv with a 22 inch LG that fit like a glove, since we will be living in there for the next 3 months.

On the plus side we got power back last night!

Greetings fellow Premier owners !! Just got done with a few mods, TV in bedroom, towel hanger in bathroom and added outlet on other side of bed. Went camping last weekend, wife saw a large spider web below fridge. cleaned web off, took that wood grill off and vacuumed out in there. While I had it opened, noticed there was a screw driven into one of the flimsy heat ducts on the left side.Pretty big hole, you might want to check it out. Leaving for a 5 day camping trip this afternoon. Everybody have a safe and fun holiday!!!!!

We changed up the tv situation again. I took the 22 inch out if the living room and put it in the kids room, since it has a built-in dvd player. I took the extra tv and hung it in the bedroom, behind the cabinet. I put a 1x6 backer board in the cabinet to support the weight. I know, its overkill, but now the kids can play xbox, watch a dvd, or cable in the back, I can hook up my laptop in the livingroom and use the hdmi cable for my movies on digits or as a monitor, and the DW can watch cable in the bedroom.

Does anyone have any experience with Virgin Mobile Broadband2Go? We picked it up last night and so far its awesome. Unlimited mobile internet for 50.00 a month. After the first 2.5 GB it slows down but hey, it works anywhere, so they say. I can hook up to 5 things via WiFi so we will see.
