I have looked at wholesaler RVDirect and another net wholesaler, and neither seem to discount Keystone..specifically the Bullet.

Does anyone know of a wholesaler for the Bullet? TIA.

Are there any RV shows in your area coming up? That is where we found our best deal.

No wholesalers that I know of. Didn't I see you order one already? If so, I hope there's not a problem with Keystone! From Kansas to Minneapolis, no RV shows had any good deals unfortunately. Our TT we bought was over hour away and we obtained a fair price on ours. What part of the country are you looking? Our dealer in IA still has a few and was very good to work with. Someone may know of one that's not advertised online. Good Luck!

no..I haven't ordered anything yet..

I like the Evergreen for the non-wood construction..the price, not so much...

The Bullet has a very nice look...especially with the body paint..that gets pricey with the upgrades of the Premeir, as well.

I have gotten a quote from a discounter on a North Trail that was about $9000 below the MSRP...and surprised me it would be that large a discount........why didn't I buy it?......it is at the top end of weight I want to pull, while the Bullet and Evergreen are more than 1000# lighter...still thinking.

we got ours from colrain rv in ohio. they have two shops one in dayton and one in cincinati. we got a great deal on ours.

i tow our 31bhpr with a tahoe so i bet you will be fine. always test first and don't just jump in of course.

Rooting against the Cowboys is almost as fun as Rooting for the GIANTS!

Tire Covers. Looking to get tire covers for this season. Never bought these before and I don't exactly understand what size to get. Anyone buy some before, what size and where? Unfortunately ours is in storage and I can't get to it to measure. The "book" says ST225/75R15 but that doesn't give me full dimension on what size to get. Thanks!

We just picked up our new 29REPR from ARBOGAST in Dayton. Second TT we have purchased from them. Both great experiences.
Can't wait for the first camping trip down to St. Augustine for Spring Break. I hope to get a quick overnighter in just to test things out before we head down.
So far everything looks fine, and was tested/shown in our walk though at Arbogast. I was amazed at how much******had accumulated in our old camper!

Congrats! You'll be playing twister or having a square dance party with that floor plan! Hope it brings you many great memories.

RainbowsEnd, thanks! We went back many, many times on which layout. Our two kids had outgrown the bunk bed setup in our old trailer.
We ended up picking this layout as it seems to be a good compromise in layouts with kids. They have their own area at night, we have a bedroom that is not open to everyone and a great area to lounge when needed during the awake hours.. the very low weight of the unit sealed the deal.

Hello Fellow Premier Owners!

I just found the forum last night and decided to join since there were many fellow owners on here.

My name is Kurt and our family purchased a 2011 Premier 31BHPR in May of 2010 and camped around 7 times last year with it. We love this trailer!!!!! At first we didn't know if we wanted to go this long since our friends all have 26' trailers, but with our two kids and actually experiencing the outdoor kitchen which they don't have, I'm glad we chose this one!

Funny thing is, after reading this thread we have experienced some of the problems you all have. It has been very nice to us so far though! I have it at the dealer right now having them look things over before it loses the warranty in May. The only problems we have had has been the stabilizer jacks and the toilet valve spraying water out the back (ours only sprays out during the initial hooking up of the city water; makes me wonder if the air in the line is causing the problem). We have had no leaks either from the plumbing or the slide-outs as we have been at the campground a few times last year in a few downpours.

Some of the other items you have all mentioned seem to be functioning properly such as the black and grey valves which are labeled properly. the only thing everyone on here has me curious about is that whole thing about the outdoor kitchen faucet draining into the black tank. Can't wait to get it back and see where that thing is draining into!!!

One other thing that has been puzzling me is that our rear axle tires seem to have a pronounced camber with the tops of the tires leaning to the inside when viewing from behind. Can someone check theres and tell me if this is normal. When we took delivery, I don't recall inspecting that so I don't know what is normal for this trailer and I have yet to see another one in person, either at the campground or the dealership. Sometime the trailers have this to help with stability and tracking.

Thanks for any help,
Kurt

So we ordered our 31 about 3 weeks ago. Our dealer had been checking production and keeping us updated but as of last Friday it was still not built. Lo and behold today he calls me to tell that it is sitting in his lot [emoticon]

Now we need to figure how to get all of the******from the old trailer that featured a rear "garage" storage area into the new trailer that is definitely storage handicapped.....
