    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West School me on my solar system please!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Need help pricing a Keystone

    I think the keystones are nice but I don't think they are the most sough after? Need at least a 3/4 ton truck with 8 foot bed so not as many buyers out there.. However, sellers market... I always say start high and see what the interest level is at that price and adjust accordingly.. Good luck
