Pulls fine with no issues.
Coming from a Tiffin Motorhome its a little different on the inside quality. Outside storage is lacking, but again we could bring the house in the Class A.
Compared to other bumper pull campers we've had I'd say it's on par.
Some features I really like is the new entry doors don't free swing, meaning you don't have to worry about them slamming either way due to wind.
TV, Radio, and Fireplace are on 1 remote. Like the fireplace option for heat without having to use propane.
We had a second AC added to the bedroom and 15k ducted upgrade AC for hot summer days. Learned from the Tiffin that having 2 AC's when hot is a big plus. In Arizona last year we were in 100 degree temps and with the 2 AC units we could keep it 80 degrees inside. I'm not betting on this Outback to do the same as it's not insulated as well as the Tiffin, but maybe it won't feel 90+ inside. We won't be back out west this year so we will see what happens here in the South.
This is our second pull behind with outside kitchen. Really like having that as we tend to cook stuff like bacon an sausage outside. Like having the fridge for nights so you don't have to keep going inside for drinks, or bring a cooler.
We added 7 way auto leveling. SCORE... This is great. And I find that it prevents side to side or front to back rocking better than on previous campers.
Bought 2 6V golf cart batteries for the front tray giving us more boondocking time. This unit doesn't have an inverter, but having the better battery capacity does allow for furnace and other items to run thru the night without killing the batteries. We tend to stay at Walmart or other places with no hook ups when on a long trip and just passing thru. Have a generator to recharge if needed or the truck will recharge while driving the next day.
I was shocked to see that Keystone didn't give you storage under the dinette, like EVERY OTHER camper on the market. Not sure what is under there. May do some exploring to see if we can make something work.
Main light switch is in the panel above the TV. Should have been put at entry door.
They have 2 grey tanks, 1 for kitchen, 1 for bathroom. Not sure why they do this. Now you have 2 different dump outlets. If it doubled the capacity that would be fine, but it didn't.
Have an appointment to add Slide Toppers. When I asked about these from the dealer I purchased from, the rep said they were no longer needed as there are 3 different seals to prevent anything from entering the camper. What an idiot. What about sticks, pine cones, other items sitting on top of the slide when you retract. I'm not carrying a ladder, and don't want to get on top of roof before I leave to sweep them clean. Tried to spend more money with them and they didn't want it.
