sold the weekend warrior due to frame flex and leaks...just picked up this 2008 keystone energy 230fs last night for $16,500.00..its only been out on 3 trips since purchased...even has a year left on the extended warrenty...he has never even used the generator since he purchased it

i havnt seen a whole lot on here for this model,..what do you guys think?..

Probably the easiest fix of all to problems with the old trailer, make them someone elses.

Congrats on the "new to you" trailer (I can't imagine owning one for 6 years and using it 3 times but I know it happens). Maintenance overhaul should let you enjoy this one for years. I agree, double check that hour meter though, mine had 2/10's on it at delivery just from being test fired.

I like the interior finish!

Nice unit. It's a Tailgater clone which Keystone also made. I had a Tailgater, good basic unit over all. Typical issues: watch for screws pulling out of walls on the sofas. Make sure they cut the bottom out of the gen compartment for ventilation.
As others noted check the stuff that ages like tires and roof caulking.

I would check your hour meter to make sure it is working. In addition, if it has not been used since 2008, I would perform a service before using. Nice Trailer. Good Luck.

Congratulations on your upgrade. Remember to check the born date of the tires, fire up the generator monthly for an hour under load, inspect the ramp, roof seams and vents and calk. She is purdy so Keep her dry inside.

outside needs some cleaning,..but he did have a tarp over the roof
