Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
I looked on their website and couldn't find the information that I was looking for. In fact, I didn't see the 347 at all. When considering a unit for full time use, I would recommend making sure that the frame is at least a 12" frame. Depending on where you will be located with the trailer (hot or cold climates), you might want to find out what the "R-rating" for insulation is listed as. Also, consider the total weight of each model you consider, because that can give one an indication of how much one can haul with regards to "stuff" and toys. Sometimes, the lighter trailers also mean that the construction quality can be less.
With regards to the 347, I didn't see that model on Keystone's website. One thing to look at is also the size of the holding tanks, especially if one is going to be boondocking much. Suspension and wheel and tire sizes and weight ratings is also something to consider, depending on how much weight you are going to be "loading" into the trailer.
Good luck with your research and planning
Terry

Blanek,
Although I cannot speak first hand of the Mountaineer TH, I can tell you the Keystone line . well made. I believe you might have a typo with the model whereas it is a 357 not a 347.
Either way, we love our Montana and the Mountaineer is just a slight step down. Not in quality but mainly in available options and upgrades.
Keystones customer service is outstanding and their dealer network is superb.
Good luck,
Les

Saw the new Heartland Cyclone toy Hauler on Facebook this morning. While we're not interested in TH's it was a pretty impressively designed unit. I think it was the 3950 model. Saw older ones online but not this unit. You might want to ake a look.
