It came from the factory pre-wired for the bedroom AC. I hope Keystone would have done it that way.

========================

And that my friends is why it's so important to know if your unit was wired for 50 Amp service and prep'd at the factory for a 2nd Air Conditioner.

Hi Gang, just to add I took delivery on our new 321 in September 2012. I had the second AC unit installed at our dealership and the trailer was pre-wired for the second unit.

you guys are getting a little testy here. all I said was I saw one advertised with a 13K A/C on it and wondered if some came with only 30 amps . good grief guys don't get your shorts all wired up.. the ones I have seen were all 50 amps. I am now wondering if the salesman who wrote the ad knew what he was talking about. and it doesn't matter what TT I own. I get around too,you know

Anyone done this? I closed the fridge/couch side of the expandable with the cabinet door next to the stove open. OUCH. CRUSH, SNAP, BREAK the two inch strip piece and the pannel above the sink cabinet doors. Nice crack. Ok so... took a piece of 1/2 inch by 7inch by 17inch maple veniered ply wood. The cross peice at the top of the doors is 2 inches wide, the panel above it is 5 inches. I took the maple ply wood 17 by 7, cut a 3/32 deep by 5 inch section out of it. Now this piece matches the borken area back side. I put elmers inter/exterion glue on all of it and put it up under the sink behind the cracked area. I then took a 2 inch piece of ply wood and clamped the two pieces together. I then took a 6 by 5 inch piece and clamped the borken 5 panel between the glued piece and the 6 by 5 piece. Left it there for two days. Took all the clampe off, and the front flating pieces off. No crack. Everything is smoth. I then took some cherry stain and with a real fne brush covered the crack then wiped the stain off. You cant tell it ever happened.

There are those that have and those that will...

Finally got the new wheels and tires put on the 321. I changed the wheels to 16" and went with the Bridgestone Duravis R500 highway tires. New new tires are LT235/85/16E and rated for 3042 lbs each (about 500 lbs each more than the stock tires). The larger diameter sits the TT up about 1.5" which doesn't seem to affect driveability.

We took our brand new 321, never used, in to have some minor repairs done. You know adjust this and that and the bed was pulled out of the wall. I also complained about the bed sagging. They fixed everthing and WERE going to put a 1/2 inche sheet of plywood over the bed frame to stop the sagging. Guess what.... KESTONE said no. The addition of the playwood was a UPGRADE. I am not kidding. I am making my own fix. Just thought you would enjoy how frugal/CHEEP... KEYSTONE is.

I fessed up to the faucet incident awhile ago- 1500 or so in repairs!!

Plus one remote crunched (fell out of the cabinet enroute), and one garbage can crushed!!
Now anytime I move the slides, I clear it.. Inside and out!! There will be other learning curves but if I slow down, the curves will be smaller and easier to repair!! I may start a checklist, like the one in our planes..

Very nice looking wheel and tires!

Hi folks, wondering if any of you have installed or are considering a back up or rearview camera on your 321. If so did you go wireless or hard wired? Thanks!

Getting ready to put one on the TV. I hadn't thought about one for the TT. Besides, my wife really likes yelling and giving me hand gestures...

Funny you should say that. On the return from our last outing DW was guiding me into our parking space for the trailer when the batteries in her radio went dead......the results were not to bad, I only need to replace the rain gutter on the house that was crushed by the spare tire on the trailer. It would have been much worse if DW had not rapidly moved to the yelling and excited hand gestures.

Anyway I'm thinking a camera back there may end up paying for itself in the long run.
