Keystone RV History

Founded in 1996 by Cole Davis, Keystone RV has grown to become the largest manufacturer of towable RVs, with 1+ million Keystone RVs sold to date.

Cole had a simple vision, "to build quality RVs loaded with features and provide exceptional value to owners". What made Keystone RV different was they empowered those closest to the customer to make key decisions. This led Keystone RV towards being known for its industry leading product innovation, as decision makers were able to collect feedback directly from the end users.

Today, innovation continues in the Keystone Innovation Lab. Over the last 25+ years, Keystone has continued to refine their RVs, leading to the feature rich and quality camping trailer builds known today!

Who Owns Keystone?

Keystone RV was acquired by Thor Industries in 2001. Thor, being a global leader in RV manufacturing has benefited Keystone through access to their wealth of resources including an experienced team, and capital investment that have allowed for the company to continue with Cole Davis' original vision of providing exceptional value to its buyers, and load their RVs with features. Today, Thor Industries is the largest marker of RVs in the world.

Keystone's Commitment to Long-Haul Quality

Resources from Thor have allowed Keystone to continue innovating, and drive improved quality standards year over year. Their commitment to "long-haul" quality is represented through their intensive in-plant quality inspection and audit process, autonomous secondary quality inspection facility for additional review, and a 1-year Limited Base Warranty, and 3-Year Limited Structural Warranty. Learn more about Keystone RV's warranty here.

Where are Keystone RVs made?

Keystone RVs are made at either of the two major production facilities located in Goshen, Indiana, and Pendleton, Oregon, where Keystone travel trailers, fifth wheels, and toy haulers are produced. With advanced engineering techniques, and by keeping overhead low, Keystone is able to offer high-quality, durable RVs that offer a balance of luxury and affordability!

Keystone RV is so confident in the quality of their RV manufacturing that they host open tours of their plant where visitors can get a first-hand view into how different names like the Cougar, Bullet, Hideout, and more are built. There's a full list on Keystone's website explaining the Keystone RV plant tours in more detail.

The Innovations in Keystone RVs for Sale

Keystone's commitment to innovation has been a key aspect that sets Keystone trailers apart and delivers more value to its owners. In the Keystone Innovation Lab, a dedicated team of R&D engineers are constantly setting new standards for performance, comfort, and safety.

Keystone RV's focus on improving the durability, user experience, safety, and energy efficiency of its campers has led to several industry-first innovations:

HyperDeck Flooring

Keystone's HyperDeck floor system is a water resistant and lightweight alternative to traditional wood flooring. The flooring system is built with 4 composite layers. 

  • Fiberglass-Reinforced Polypropylene to resist soft spots
  • A High Density Foam Core that adds strength,
  • Fiberglass-Reinforced Thermoplastic Base Layer that is water resistant
  • A protective film at the bottom which resists road damage.

Hyperdeck Flooring outperforms traditional laminated plywood construction by: being 100% water resistant, reducing floor weight by up to 25% for easier towing, having an increased lifespan as it is less likely to degrade over time, and its multiple layers increase insulation and dampen noise.

MaxTurn Frame Design

Many Keystone Fifth wheels feature the patented MaxTurn frame design, which allow for tighter turns, making it effortless to maneuver your RV in tight spaces. MaxTurn delivers:

  • An expected turning radius of more than 95 degrees
  • Protection for your tow vehicle from damage
  • Elimination of the need for a swivel hitch pin

KeyTV

Maximize your entertainment system with Keystone RV's KeyRV multi-source signal control. It's a plug-and-play receiver that allows you to easily manage broadcast, satellite, and cable. The KeyTV delivers:

  • An easier way to connect to entertainment options
  • Improved signal quality
  • No additional wiring required for satellite hookup. Compatible with most DISH, DirecTV, Shaw, and Bell products.
