OK, My unit had the serial number assigned and was built 4/9/13. (Per the ID sticker showing the VIN and GVWR on the outside left front) The MSO is dated 5/8/13 which is the day before I bought it. The invoice to the dealer is dated 5/1/13 which is when they agreed to buy it when I bought it over the phone.

My unit was a "stock" unit that Keystone built and when built was un-sold. Keystone does build units for stock so if a Dealer needs a common floorplan they can ship it quickly. Maybe Hook can explain it better.

The dealer sent me a copy of the invoice so I could verify options as built. I have it as a PDF on my computer, have not yet figured out how to post it (a pdf) on the forum.

Jim I don't know how your unit built in early April 2013 and transferred to the dealer in May 2013 becomes a 2014 model. One would think that would certainly be before the next model year was being produced. Strange things from Keystone.

I guess when these strange things happen at the factory, anything is possible at the dealer and how they advertise them. Guess we will only be able to speculate on the confusion contained in the original post.

My sticker indicates a build date of 1/18/2012 - Model/Series MO3402RL12 - Transfer date and invoice date 1/18/2012. Purchased 2/3/2012, 10th digit is a "C", guess I truly have a 2012, and that is what it was advertised as.
Here is the vin sticker. Note the MO3150RL14 on the sticker. I posted my MSO previously showing it was a 2014. 10th digit is a "E" which would be a "14"

A buyer needs to look at the sticker on the left front to see what year the trailer actually is and not rely on the dealer to tell them.
