Pete’s RV Gets Product Training on 2011 Springdale RV

April 13th, 2011 by Phil | Posted in Fifth Wheels, General RVs, Keystone, News, Product News, RV Sales, Springdale, Travel Trailers | No Comments »


Keystone RV District Manager Brain Weaver paid a visit to Pete’s RV Center to provide product training on Springdale travel trailers and fifth wheels.

His presentation was further reinforcement that Springdale RVs are family favorites and continuously a top seller in the travel trailer category.

A few of the noticeably impressive features for 2011 include:

  • 26″ LCD TV with name brands such as Sharp and LG
  • Adaptable AM/FM/CD/DVD/IPod/MP3 player
  • Solid wood across slide fascia and full wood framing
  • Full width outriggers
  • 30,000 BTU furnace vs. competition’s 25,000 BTU furnace
  • Porcelain toilet with 360 degree rinse

Brian also pointed out several less obvious yet exceptional features such as:

  • Upgraded lighting in slide-out with sconce fixtures
  • Nightstands under each side of queen bed with drawers
  • Dynaspan flooring is 20% stronger than plywood, water repellent, and comes with a lifetime warranty
  • Hand-tightened plumbing fittings requires no tools
  • Do-more dinette table weighs 8 pounds and provides easy functionality

Given to only two manufacturers per year, Springdale RV is a DSI (Dealer Satisfaction Index) award winner.  We’re not surprised.  Pete’s RV Center has long touted the value, durability and affordability of the Springdale RV brand.  It is an exceptional choice for entry-level RVers and families looking to sleep four or more–yet still maintain all the creature comforts of a fully equipped camper.  Case in point:  Historically, Pete’s RV focused on Springdale travel trailers, but we liked the 2011 Springdale fifth wheels so much, we added several Springdale fifth wheel floorplans to our inventory as well!

As time progresses Pete’s RV will provide you with up-to-date Springdale features.  In the meantime, we welcome you to contact us with further inquiries on Springdale Travel Trailers and Fifth Wheels.

Pete’s RV Poised for Another Banner Year with Keystone RV

December 20th, 2010 by Phil | Posted in Cougar, General RVs, High Country, Keystone, Montana, Mountaineer, News, Outback, Passport, Pete's News, Product News, Springdale, Sprinter, Summerland, Sydney, Trade Shows, X-Lite | No Comments »


After an incredible 2010, Pete’s RV Center is optimistic that 2011 is going to be another great year for RV sales.  Their confidence was bolstered after previewing Keystone RV Company’s 2011 offerings at the National RV Trade Show in Louisville, KY.

An exclusive Keystone RV dealer, Sales Manager Todd McGinnis spoke highly of the new changes, floorplans and innovations across all brands:  “What continues to impress me about Keystone RV is they take great care when launching a new floorplan, or making changes to an existing model.  I never get the feeling they are just hastily doing something to keep up with the competition.”

To prepare for 2011, McGinnis orders inventory based on previous year’s popular sellers as well as new floorplans he feels will do well with consumers.  With so many new and exciting functional floorplans being launched this year, Pete’s RV is going to have an expanded inventory in 2011.  McGinnis confirmed, “Across the board, I saw several new floorplans that are going to be a hit with families and couples alike.  Therefore, it is a no brainer for Pete’s RV to make them available to our customers in 2011.”

Here’s some brief notes on what was showcased for 2011 by Keystone RV Company in Louisville:

Montana

New Fifth Wheel Floorplans: 3100RL, 3700RL, 313RE High Country, 290RLT Mountaineer

Notes: Crowned roof trusses and vaulted ceilings in Big Sky and Montana, new graphics on Mountaineer, Beauflor vinyl flooring in all coaches, and many subtle, but nicely done aesthetic changes.




Cougar

New Fifth Wheel Floorplans: 297RKS, 323MKS, 328QBS, 246RLS High Country, 29RES X-Lite

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 321RES High Country, 302RLS High Country, 298BHS High Country, 28FLV X-Lite, 29RBK X-Lite, 32SAB X-Lite

Notes: Big changes and refined line up for Cougar, Cougar High Country and X-Lite. All will include fifth wheels and travel trailers. The most obvious innovations are the dyed cap and graphics on Cougar and very slick front caps on the travel trailers. Interior cabinetry and decor never looked better and some new floorplans to boot.

Outback

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 298RE, 277RL, 279RB

New Sydney Fifth Wheel Floorplans: 322FRL

Notes: For starters, fifth wheels will now be distinguished solely with the Sydney name. We like this…much cleaner. That said, Sydney fifth wheels have a new graphics package. Outback’s biggest splash is the new front cap. Very nice! Both Outback and Sydney are offering 10th Anniversary feature and graphics packages. Oh yeah…be sure to check out the new vaulted ceilings on the Outbacks. Creates additional headroom and overall added good looks to an already stellar interior!

Sprinter

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 255RKS, 271FL, 277RLS, 308BHS, 323BHS

Notes: Sprinter is manufacturing several new innovative floorplans for their travel trailers and Copper Canyon fifth wheels. These intelligent designs create spaciousness without compromise. Feature upgrades include Corian kitchen countertops, rich, dark cabinetry, Beauflor vinyl flooring, floor lighting and new graphics. To keep the brand straightforward, the Sprinter Select extension is discontinued–which make perfect sense to us.

Passport

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 238ML

Notes: Most obvious change for Passport in 2011 is the graphics package. It has a nice pop to it and sure to impress in the campground or behind the tow vehicle. For early 2011, there is a Limited Edition package on Passport Ultra Light models (not Express). In addition to a very sporty graphics package, Limited Edition Passport includes an impressive list of standard features.

Springdale

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 247FWRL, 292RL, 293RK, 295R, 299FK

Notes: Be it storage, countertop or room to move, Springdale’s emphasis is adding more space in their trailers.  Their new floorplans also offer more creature comforts including larger televisons, u-shaped dinettes and extra deep slideout rooms.



Raptor

New Toy Hauler Floorplans: 297SE, 4014LEV, 410LEV

Notes: The barn door porch system is an ingenious way to utilize otherwise little used real estate on a toy hauler ramp. What a tremendous space for outdoor entertainment! Other upgrades to note is further emphasis on making Raptor–and especially Raptor Velocity–the most luxurious toy haulers on the planet!

  • Outback Sydney RV introduces the new 330FRL. The rear living room floorplan of this fifth wheel is a number one seller for many of the Keystone RV brands and the Outback Sydney 330FRL should be a winner too!

  • Springdale RV announces new 297FWRL and 292RL models. The Springdale 297FWRL fifth wheel floorplan features a rear lounge with full sofa, 40 inch picture window and angled kitchen for generous countertop and storage space.  The Springdale 292RL travel trailer is also a rear lounge floorplan with 22 percent more legroom, has a huge pantry and elegant touch of a neo-angled glass shower door.

  • Sprinter RV proudly unveils the new 262FWRET. The Sprinter 262FWRET fifth wheel has a back entry door to an airy lounge area with rear entertainment center and easy lift containing a 32 inch flat screen television.  Sprinter RV also announced that this summer, Sprinter Select travel trailers will start sporting a new graphics package that nicely compliments their exterior lines.
