New Flagstaff 8321KBS tomorrow.

Hey all,
Picking up our new Flagstaff 8321KBS tomorrow. Can't wait to get it home and start playing with it. Trading in our 2001 Prowler 25W. Hope to learn a lot from this group. Looking forward to getting to know everyone.
Guy

Great looking rig! The diamond package makes it stand out from the crowd. I hope you enjoy yours as much as we have enjoyed ours.

We've got a 2001 Excursion with the V10. She's got 176000 on her but still going strong. Just need to find which coil pack is giving me a little miss.

Thanks for all the compliments. We're trying to figure out now where we are going for our shake down trip. There are a few areas within a couple hours from here.

Went to the RV show in Richmond VA over the weekend and my wife fell in love with that same rig. Now she wants to trade out of our 2013 RLSS into the 832IKBS. Have to admit, it's very nice and very roomy. I'm only wondering if an F150 with ecoboost, and max tow will pull her?

Our Excursion pulled it with no problem. Of course it's rated to 9,000 lbs plus. The 832IKBS has a dry weight of 7,150. I checked your towing capacity. A 13' F150 with ecoboost and 3.73 gears should have no problem pulling that weight. If you want to check it yourself, it's on the Ford website.

Odd Key

Did you guys get a set of keys like the door key but the black plastic part is oval? If so, what does it go to? The dealer doesnt know and I have yet to hear from them about what the factory rep thought they were for.
Hope you like your trailer, I am sure enjoying mine, check out my updated post. If you want any pics let me know.

I'm pretty sure you're talking about the key to the outside shower hatch.

Key

Bret, nope that is a little copper colored key which looks like the silver keys for the outside storage bay. These keys are about as long as the entrance door keys, are cut on both sides and a black oval plastic section with the words "southco" and the code R001 stamped on the metal part of the key.

Southco is a maker of doors and locks similar to what would be used on an exterior storage or main entrance door. There are a few posts related to this, looks like it may be an outside storage door on a fifth wheel or Class A.

We don't have a key like that. Just two door keys, the little silver key and the little gold key. They probably had a key lying in the camper that someone left behind so they threw it on the key chain.
