Anyone have any insights on the Keystone Passport GT 3401QD trailers? We are seriously looking into acquiring a new unit and would love to hear the good, the bad, and/or the ugly about them from those who have had some experience with this model. Thank you in advance!!
 
For the first 110" of wheelbase, this allows you 20' of trailer. For each additional 4" of wheelbase, this gets you 1' more of trailer. If you look at some of the physics and geometry inherent to travel trailers, you might see why length is an important factor to consider. From your vehicle specs:

Wheelbase
145.7 "
145.7 - 110 = 35.7" / 4" = 8.9' or a total length of 29' of trailer length.

Length39 ft 3 in
That means that you will have 10' more in length than recommended for the wheelbase of your tow vehicle. Travel trailers have very large sides that catch a lot of wind which means that yours will be a challenge in a significant crosswind. The Toyota has a maximum towing weight of 9800# and the trailer has a gross weight of 9670 so you will also be nearly at the maximum.

Yeah, I realize we will be at the top end of trailerability with this one for our truck. I am very experienced with trailering (cargo trailers and boats) but not with RV's. I have spoken with 4 dealerships at this point and all have said it would be fine - however, I always like to get input from those with experience if possible, hence the motivation behind this post for all things associated with this particular unit.
 
After getting burned buying a new keystone 5th wheel, suggest you look at a different brand. Here is a keystone forum. You can read the horror stories from other keystone owners.

We have the exact opposite experience with our 2021 Keystone Cougar. We have had zero problems with the unit and we love it.
