A mirror in case you wanna check yourself out while you're sleeping! 😂 Man I don't know how you kept it together!

[@Colaaah]

Bahahaha! I thought the same thing, then I was waiting for "and also some on the ceiling here, for the same reason" lmao! 😜🤣😂😎👍💪😳😴

[@gabriellelowe7422]

I think he meant the mirror is more for when your not sleeping to look!😳😀 😂😂😂

[@campingworld]

Who...me??? I would never make such a comment 😉But...now that you mention it 🤣🤣 -Ian Baker

Ian Baker is an excellent presenter. He provides all the needed information through the presentation methods of, "Feature/Benefit, Problem/Solution." Ian does this in a friendly manner. He also sticks to the script without a lot of unnecessary side chatter. Lastly, his professional presentation method avoids the "ahs" and "uhms" which create verbal distractions from the message. Keystone has a great looking product with the Raptor. I like the new walk-through bathroom door, the large shower, RV style 18 cu ft refrigerator, and the side deck WITH TV! Thanks Ian for a fine presentation. Well done and keep them coming! -Pilot

[@campingworld]

Pilot, thank you very much for watching and for the high praise, I really appreciate it! -Ian Baker

[@michelrodrigues110]

Hot and professional presenter made the 25 minutes video looks light. Th RV is beyond a great dream with that garage and bathrooms, TKS>

[@ronbowman4145]

I hate that the seating doesn't face the television, praticlally impossible to watch it without turning sideways and making the seats very uncomfortable.

[@Milesco]

Yeah, that's my biggest beef with most toy haulers, too. It's all too common, and this one is no exception. :-(

[@wolfie26]

I removed the center divider and placed it to the left of the seats. That way I can lie down and face the TV even with wifey by my side. We also extend the recliners to do so.

[@RC-hm9vg]

@@Milesco The fact that they allowed that design to move forward with the seating arrangement the way it is.....I would have fired the design engineer!!!!

[@Milesco]

@@RC-hm9vg : Heh heh....yeah, me too! (But at least you get a direct view of the stove and the microwave!)

[@nitacruise9993]

I see they're changing the insides of the new Rv's finely. Beautiful model for 74.000

[@videosrus8631]

I just love that the recliners are pointing straight at the fridge and microwave. I see this all the time. Who designs these things?

[@wolfie26]

[@gabriellelowe7422]

Its PERFECT!I WANT IT NOW 🙏🌲🌳🌵🐾🐊💞🔑🚎📢🙏

[@campingworld]

Hi Gabrielle! Thank you! Come by and see us! We are happy to help

[@nidatracy274]

Nice side shelves in kitchen larger pots & pans

Nice Job!

[@JustMe-dm8yz]

Nice presentation. Thanks Ian.

[@campingworld]

Thank you very much, I appreciate the kudos! -Ian Baker

[@Kjellmclean]

Excellent view of the microwave from the loveseat! 👿

[@endofsociety]

Lol everyone has commented the same thing I thought right away. Why didn’t they just swap the seating with the dining table? Probably could but who The hell thought where they put them was okay?

[@wolfie26]

[@campingworld]

That's awesome!

[@davidozburn1155]

Switch the position of the theatre seating and table. Big negative. Chiropractor for neck and upper back.

[@maurob5519]

Fantastic

[@ruco5775]

5:48 Max air fan with a manual crank to open. very convenient.

[@adipete9039]

After an half our of watching tv you will get the neck stuck over your left shoulder.Nice job Keystone, you are going to sell a lots of these floorplans, or not!

[@jlpolcat13]

One thing that should be on first page of safety regulations. Is a reminder when air drafts start causing the trailer to sway is to ease down on the trailer brakes while leaving your speed at a steady rate. Worst cause scenario hitting the main brakes and slowing the towing vehicle down in a severe swaying problem. Driving over the road 100% of the time when passing a big truck or coach class A when you are passing and the wind is blowing from the side that the vehicle your passing hits your trailer you are towing comes out the draft pushes your trailer into a swaying motion they get scared and hit the their main brakes causing you to loose control and flip over. Just ease down on the trailer brakes maintaining your speed. Same as in a very big emergency stop hitting the trailer brakes first keeps old man jack from letting the trailer kick your butt called jackknife. I have been in every driving conditions there is and got where I was going and back on ice sand storms blinding snow and fog hailing so hard you couldn’t see in front of the 379 long nose. Drove in floods and forest fires where smoke was so thick that lights were no use. I learned one thing is you can always go as slow as you want but only once can you go faster than you wanted too. I pulled into Ft.Stockton on Interstate10 one day in a sand storm and woke the next morning and the sand dunes were covering up the McDonalds and hiding trucks burying them where the drivers had to push sand away from their windows and crawl out. Main Street was twelve foot sand dunes with large pay-loaders filling dump tractor trailers and did get out until noon before they could open the freeway on ramp. I think it was early 2001 or 2002. Been over Cabbage when you couldn’t see from blinding snow storm. Went from Wichita Falls Texas leaving in one of the worst ice storms of the 2000 traveling to northwest Minnesota and back in ice every mile up and back. Chains on tractor and trailer, step deck . Ice buildup so bad to turn I had to use my braker bar to not the blocks of ice off between the duels on the tractor in between the top deck ice build up. Floods and forest’s fires coming out of Bartow West bygally Virginia lightening strikes started a fire and when Passmore behind me we got down to a railroad trestle the rain had it flooded and in able to get the fire trucks up the narrow road we had to drive through the flooded underpass so the fire trucks could get to the fire. Water up to half way on drivers side window. Cost me $176.00 dollars for the TA to drain the axles and transmission plus motor oils. Picked up a load of white ash lumber going to San Antonio and if the lumber was wet they wouldn’t except it. Next day I took the tarps off and run down to San Antonio stopped at the Flying J putting the tarps back on and passed the dry test meter. Thank God . Yes the old trucking days are gone for sure. Toxic chemical Parkinson’s from the government took me out of the trucking industry. It was a good thing because truckers who are independent are dinosaurs and the trucking schools are pushing for quantities not Quality . Remember YOU can be the best driver on the road but inevitably you will get hit by The worst driver on the road. SEMPER FIDELIS

[@omkarjoshi9511]

how much it costs??? can we remove party decks???

[@billcarp3523]

Nice trailer, except I think the dining table and recliners should be switched, so you're closer to the angle of the TV. No big deal, can be fixed easily.

[@campingworld]

You know Bill, you may have a future in RV design my friend! Raptor agreed with you and they discontinued this floorplan and have the 426 and 429 instead with better viewing angles to the TV. Thanks for watching and for the comment! -Ian Baker

[@bradwilliams4921]

Very nice toy hauler. Seemed like an odd location for the black tank flush.

[@thehairhomestead6071]

Could you make the garage into a bunk house? With insulation

[@majamoore6209]

Thanks for sharing this video. I love everything about this model except I wish it had a bathtub instead of a shower. Just wondering if that is an option? Great job showing all the little details and features.

[@jlpolcat13]

Maja Moore by some flex tape and a sheet of plastic and flex tape it to the top of your shower floor in what ever hight you want the depth of your bath tub . 😜. Flex tape pretty sticky so be sure when you pull the plastic backing off the tape you aren’t around anything except what you are going to tape. SEMPER FIDELIS

[@manbeastx69]

I would like to start seeing them with a walk in tubs as an option and then you can get the best of both worlds shower/tub and the Jacuzzi massage jets for relaxing if you want.

[@Erin-Thor]

Don’t be silly, there’s a jacuzzi on the rooftop deck, LOL!

[@MrsCasa]

I know you sacrifice a lot with a toy hauler, but geez this thing has NO inside storage space. Plus several things that I think could hurt ya, like window treatment frame sticking way out into that side of the recliner, and that "table" sticking OVER the bed?! Come on guys!

[@matto1i]

MrsCasa notice the bed isn’t centred properly. Poor setup before video

[@edgarbrooks7695]

are you sure its not an autobot, those look like eyes on the front of it, lol

[@ghbo1]

Don't like the table right over the side of the bed, does it fold upwards? I'd roll over n knock myself out otherwise

[@campingworld]

Jodie, it does not fold up. However, the bed can be adjusted slightly so the shelf isn't encroaching as much over the bed. I recommend giving the bed a try as I don't think it'll be as much of an issue as you believe. Thanks for watching and for the question! -Ian Baker

[@matto1i]

The bed isn’t centred, if you notice on the other side it’s inches between table and bed

[@Boofyre]

Not sure I like that TV so close to the door.

[@jerryweinstein3126]

I have a question....Can you switch to a (tankless hot water heater) ? Thanks..

[@campingworld]

That's a great question, Jerry! The service team at the closest CW could talk to you more about that, could you send us your zipcode? We'll get that number for you!

[@drbwhit]

Where the TV is mounted versus where the chairs are would preclude me from buying this

[@islanderson691]

Can you use the side deck with just cables?

[@campingworld]

Yup, both the side and rear decks are completely supported by the cables. Super easy to set up and tear down. Thanks for watching and for the question! -Ian Baker

[@mxthunder2]

i want to hear more about the generator.

[@Erin-Thor]

Google Cummins Onan 5500

[@theresacook2476]

😎

[@Jim_jong_un]

Can I tow this with my 2009 Chevrolet Colorado with 5 cyl?

[@Erin-Thor]

No.

[@tinarichardson2375]

How much is it I will buy it if it's out there 10. Grand

[@campingworld]

You can find specs and pricing at the link in the description, Tina. Thanks for watching!

[@deebrookner9779]

If someone wants that big camper then why not take 2 more feet and make the 1/2 bath a full bath. I like the toy haulers for the extra space and decks. I live in a RV full time if I have 10 people visiting me why do I want all those people tramping through my master bath to take a shower. They can use the toilet in the garage area but you have to invade your hosts bathroom for a shower. Please put a full bath in the garage area even a wet bath would be better than a 1/2 bath. Another thing , separate living areas so that living room is not sitting in the kitchen. Dishwasher in kitchen also. Have been looking for a new one but need the two full baths. Would like master bath to have shower and soaker tub and shower and full bath in garage.

[@campingworld]

Hey Dee, it's tough with Toy Hauler's because so many things need space. You need a large enough living area and bedroom that it doesn't feel closed in plus a garage capable of hauling a side by side or other toys. There are few out there I know of off the top of my head that have two full baths. The Cyclone 4200 and Road Warrior 413 both work there. However I'm not sure if either have the space for a dishwasher. Hopefully this helps a little and thanks so much for watching! -Ian Baker

[@eloygonzalo1559]

how much'?

[@campingworld]

Please click on the link in the description for price and availability, thanks!

[@kman889]

dont even wanna know the MSRP on something like this xD

[@Erin-Thor]

$75k

[@NYNCMIKE]

Terrible design,, TV and seating very bad layout

[@cybernetwork5027]

Need more storg

[@Erin-Thor]

Too funny! Needs an A and an E too. LOL!

[@peterscherling9000]

And all of this beauty under a rubber roof designed to fail in 12 years! Lol

[@campingworld]

Lol, I see what you did there. I hear what you're saying Peter, but I wouldn't say that it's "designed" to fail in 12 years. Don't get me wrong, without proper maintenance the roof can fail in far less than 12 years, however it can and should last much longer. That's kind of like saying a new Ford F-150 is designed to fail in 3 years/36,000 miles because that's the warranty it comes with. There are better roofing materials out there like a molded fiberglass roof that is found on high end diesel coaches, but the weight and price of that roof make it unrealistic. Anyway, I do appreciate the humor and thanks for the comment! -Ian Baker

[@reginareed4117]

NEED A DISHWASHER.

[@Erin-Thor]

That’s what kids are for.

[@wolfie26]

We installed a dishwasher where the washer and dryer would go. We are planning on putting a washer dryer all in one under it sometime.

[@oldmanriverrimington3442]

I think the floor vent should be recest cast iron. That cheap vent will trip you up dent and collapse. That storage bin should have a big ole bag of marijuana in it.

[@jimh4375]

Awesome floor plan, but the bland colors are depressing.

[@PunisherOfDeath101]

Kitchen/tv room sucks. I'm not a fan of such a multi cluttered room. Dedicated areas are needed.

[@cthunter41]

Free standing dinette in a toyhauler? Completely useless imo

[@Erin-Thor]

cthunter41 -- They do that so you can move it, table and chairs, outside or to the decks. Just remember to strap them down before moving as they will become pinballs in a BIG pinball machine.
