Real Length
We have an '04 Keystone Everest 323P. I wrongly assumed that the 323 meant 32 feet three slides. When measuring it I don't find anything that comes to 32 feet. Is there a logical reason for the 32?

I've always assumed it's supposed top mean just the 'box' is 32 feet, but I'm not sure that is as accurate on 5th wheels. I have a Fuzion 342, and the box is probably about 34 feet - overall it's just shy of 38. No idea where the 2 comes in lol.

Box size
The box measures 29' +/- The 5er overhang is 7', total length is 36' +/-

I know on my Cougar the model number was basically the box size then you add the overhang, but I'm not sure on your unit.

On my Outback I think its the square footage of the floor plan with the side out. Length X width of the main floor and the same for the slide. I add them up and come out with my floor plan. (320BH) It could be a coincidence, but hey it works out on mine,

I was under the impression that the model number referenced the interior length of the trailer....the usable length if you will.
My 316RL is about 31.5 feet inside but over 35 feet outside.

My fifth wheel model number is 340. The actual exterior length is 37 feet 2 inches. I believe 340 means interior square feet.

It is purely a model number Keystone uses. At least that is what a Keystone Representative told me a couple of years ago at the RV show.

I did the same quick math, but without knowing how many slides and sizes it's a guess

Have a cougar 26SAB. Can't be square footage. Think it inside measurement.

Our Everest is a 363K. Just maybe it has 36' 3" of length inside as it's 37' 10" actual length outside. The K may be - island in the kitchen - as that's what it has.

I was told by salesman at CW it is the interior floor length, I never checked it though, he was selling cars the month before.

You need to add the slides!!!
My Copper Canyon 293 works out to 32' long, but right at 293 Sq, ft. of living space.
