Front Kitchen Fifthwheel Walkthrough Montana 3820FK 

I fell in love with this layout. I love that every room is it's own space

I love it when you like a normal person that can describe an rv better than a salesman!!!

Omg!!!! The best layout EVER!!!! It has the feel of a tiny home 💖

LOVE this layout! The eating area with its view out the front windows of the unit seems to me to be the most efficient as well as aesthetic use possible for that space. The steps leading up to the kitchen which overlooks the rest of the layout seems logical and gives everything a flowing and natural residential feel...

This is the RV we have, and we love it. It's roomy enough for my two grown sons and their kids and wives to come camping with us on occasion. We traded our new Grand Design Solitude for this one the minute I laid eyes on that kitchen. I'm able to make meals and be a bit separated from the crowd in the living room, but still able to join in the conversation. We travel mostly just the two of us and our three dogs. This is our favorite RV we've ever owned.

WOW I loved it now that's a nice fifth wheel and a real nice size kitchen I love when you walk up the steps and you could still look down in to the living room Good job on filming What a Beautiful trailer some people make me dizzy when they're filming

Yes one on my wife and I's we are looking at list. Love that you can have the option to replace the kitchen U shape booth to dinette seating.

I'm in love with this one!!!!

We bought this fifth wheel last year and we love it !!! Having the kitchen up front is so nice and it stays cool nicely. Although our Bassit hounds struggled a bit going up the stairs to the kitchen but now they are experts ❤ We did but a dog ramp for them for entering the rig which we leave at the back steps. To answer a couple of your questions ..yes the bed lifts up and when the slides are in you can only access the bathroom and hallway. But I can access the kitchen but not my 6'1 230 lb. Hubby .. Honestly it's a really nice 5th wheel ..

386fk Palamino Columbus has front kitchen model as well. We love ours. Two 50 inch tv's, stack washer and dryer, 5 slides, auto leveling system, microwave/convection oven.

Wow, thanks for showing.

We just bought one this weekend in NH at camping world in Conway wicked big unit and we love it .

Thanks for sharing your walkthru :)

Great video. Thank you. This is one of the better FK models. Others have a very awkward and poorly layed out FK. One thing I absolutely hate, and this goes for 99% of all RVs, is their use of standard cabinet doors for areas where two doors would be better. See @ 7:01 . Higher end units have less of this cost saving cheapness. But, as you can see, they do it too. Two doors or three little raised lip shelves, on each side of the door for rolled towels, would have been much nicer. The newer version of this model will see the bed slide exteneded to include the vanity, and the door to the bathroom. Depending on how they reconfigure the bathroom we'll see either a larger shower or dual vanity. We'll likely see bathrooms similar to those in the new 3810 series for the first model revision. A dual vanity could come in futher revision when the dinette is moved to the door side allowing the rest of the kitchen to move forward 20-30 inches. This change will enable the living room to moved forward as well. Thus the bathroom can be enlarged to include a double vanity and larger shower. These are exciting times in the RV industry. We're seeing fantastic new technology, features, and ever expanding interiors like never before. Of course if you own or operate an RV park or campground, these expanding homes on wheels are taking up more and more room. Unless you have the means to improve site conditions, this is becoming an issue with more widebody rvs with deeper slides. Relatives of mine reduced one row by four sites, on the full hookup side, when they had to redo the utilities, on that row, three years ago. They offset the lost income from those sites by charging 33% more than the narrower sites. Once word got out about these wider sites they were and continue to be booked out for over two years. This spring they're redoing another row because demand and feedback is so great. These sites now typically have couples rather than families. Retirees and couples like this quieter section. And my cousins have seen a drop in electrical usage on that row thanks to four fewer rvs and new RVs having full LEDs. They're currently trying to buy the neighbors house and property to add a family side to the park with a pool, clubhouse, and sport court so they can make the existing side all larger sites for today's RVs. Seems it a great time to own an RV park/campground. So long as rv storage facilities remain somewhat affordable and financing continues to include 20yr loans, more campgrounds are needed to fill the growing need. Ok. I got a little too chattie. Cheers

I love this concept!

Interesting Layout hope to see more like it.

Love this layout. Still like the quality of a DRV and would love this layout in a DRV! Nice video

Very slick! I don't have one as large nor as new but a 2006 Terry 330FKDS (front kit/double slide). It does us well at this time, not being full timers being the 33ft with the king bed in the rear with it's own door, shower/sink in the center, open to the hallway with pocket door leading to the living room/kit/dining room and then accordion door for the bath/bath separation. Shitter is in it's own pocket with swinging door, noting the way that door slides is a very nice idea oppose to ours. These new coaches are certainly much more thought out than the earlier years, as close to the 06 to an, example, 16. We do love the front kitchen and rear bed. The storage in the Terry's are superb and plenty. We still have space in it, even when we were on our 2 1/2 week adventure

Super nice. I like it very very much.

Pretty nice but I prefer the front living models. Saw one recently where the bedroom was also raised and a golf cart could be parked underneath the bed from the rear. Thought that was a great idea.

I think the Montana's are some of the best built 5th wheels, many have the 4-season package for insulation, etc. Having the kitchen up front is nice. I've not seen that setup before. I also like having the living room in the front. Great and informative video!!

I really like that design.

Exactely what i am looking for...love it

this is the 5th wheel we are looking at

I LOVE this! Too bad we just bought a toy hauler last year

When I get a front living kitchen and dining in the middle Makes way more sense

Definitely like the front kitchen

Great tour Tom!! Happy Palm Sunday...........

Love this model.

Love it!

oh my God I love it

Sweet!I need to start going to Rv Events Shows!

I like it! I must have one!

Love. This

I rented one near Tampa,Fl in Dec 1999 ad it had the kitchen in the 5th wheel. Have not seen another until I saw this video. I loved it,I thought it was the best layout. Glad to see it available

I love this .. very nice

Wow how the other half live, very nice

Love my 2015 Montana 3440RL

yes it is i watch your videos because you got my dream house

Gorgeous ! I think I see your electric pulse issue- over your shoulder there @:35 up in that cabinet , actually looks like on the other side too see the coach below your forearm. Believe it or not nasty spirits exist and the strong ones pack a big electrical punch. Usually I wouldn't say anything I am a Deacon and I love looking at 5th wheels trailers etc.. Well one day I was on an RV dealership website in Texas and man the photos had some crazy images that well.. were no supposed to be there. So they come loaded this way sometimes- but it seems it was just passing thru- amen!!! Beautiful though enjoy!

I like this design

Love this layout! They should put interior blinds in front window...the ones in between the pane of glass.

I like the kitchen dinette layout out

We bought a 2017 Montana with Front living room..and rear bedroom. It's divided up nicely..more like an apt Planning on full time after we get our house ready to rent

Very nice lay-out thats what I would like to buy if I have the finance living room entrance is always first

i would do a folding table in the kitchen. love this one

Very good intell

My slides when I park overnight take me a whole fifteen minutes total with leveling to get done. I start heating my tanks and checking other features since I can do it through my wireless remote. If you have an older model it might be time to upgrade.

Nice video for 2019

DUD!E!!!! You're GORGEOUS as hell! Your wife is sooo LUCKY!!!!

Great video tour. Thanks!

We walked through this one @ a RV show in our area. Loved it! But...I was wondering how hot it would get up there while cooking & then adding sunshine coming through the window. I know our front living room (with electric fireplace) gets several degrees warmer than the rest of the unit. Just a thought.

Also FYI the table turns for easy access from the fridge side 😎

nice kitchen nice dinette spot be really nice parked near a virw

I like it i want this one

you have a much better put together trailer than that been looking at moble suits ever sence they started making them, cant aford one. i had rather have a wore out drv than anything else new. been through all of them factories that is.

I want one.

Front window will constantly be covered with bugs that you can look at while eating.

That is nice with the kitchen up in the front, not sure about the bathroom door though.

Nice purse!

The second door is there for the quickest possible bathroom accessibility to prevent tracking dirt throughout the RV.

we have been in this model as well several times. and the only downside I saw to this kitchen is the placement of the fridge in relation to the table. they bang into each other and unless you are a child it is difficult to get into the table from the fridge side of the table. and as he pointed out the sides of the bed are tight but it's an amazing layout overall.

Curious if the majority of the weight would be up front as well. Love the design though.

Is amazing how must space they find in this rv why can build house like that

I just wish they weren't so shy about telling us the price. I don't like when you have to call in and ask. I understand prices vary depending what you want but a basic price would be nice

Wouldn't work for our needs. But it's nice to see the difference floor plans.

Beautiful congrats

With this design, how easy is it to make lunch while your traveling? Do you have to take the slide out to do anything? What a gorgeous layout though!!

I love the idea of having a second door. I had s man come into my rv after my husband went to work. We had lived there for 3 yrs. so felt comfortable but a man walked in and sat down and was talking to my dogs. I was like holy crap who’s that?, well he was a druggie on a high and calling me Ivy. I said can I help you?, he said well I am looking for my brother. I said you know what we just got here last night. You should go ask office. I kept my cool and he left while the whole time he had his hand in his backpack. He has my husbands drill case in his other hand. Later that night he pulled s gun on a man in a wheelchair. Needless to say. I am scared. Ow. Always lock my door and just wised up to not get comfortable

I've never seen the front kitchen on a fifth wheel. It's a neat take on design. I'd be afraid the front being higher up would also be hotter as well.

Is it possible to switch out the pullout sofa for a desk? Where is the washer and dryer?

we have a 30 foot fifth wheel and i think it has 90% of the usable space inside that this one has, jmho. also for a 40 foot fifth wheel this has much less outside storage than our 30 foot, just fyi, thanks for the review

Cool camper

Wauw a beauty

Gotta point this out as no one has mentioned it. What happens when you score a back-in space with a fabulous view? With this layout, that view is enjoyed only when in bed. The front kitchen, while novel, gives you a view of the road. I give designers points for trying something new. However, if I score a spot with a choice view, I don't want to sleep through it only. I'd like to enjoy it during the day too. Know what I mean? (Motorhomes, naturally, have the ability to pull in nose first should the situation warrant.)

00:14 "This is the Montana 3820 FK, and the FK stands for FUCKIN KOOL!!!"

I think this is ok.i like the seat in the shower but I am looking for a few particular things and am not looking for new or fifth wheels

I like the setup but would be interested if they had the same design with a bunkhouse. Maybe a 40' to 45'. Love it though

My brother has a sandpiper with a similar layout

Good video.. sorry about the sound.. but.. when you do a bathroom.. always walk in and show the height for those who are 6'3 or more... they need to see the height of the showers. David

What is the price of that fifth wheel you just demonstrated on your video and what year is it

I love this rev tour but I have a question where do the people drive

He totally skipped the living room which is the part I wanted most to see. I am full time and currently live in a 40''r and a recording studio in the living area. Looks like I'll have to go see one of these to find out if the living room is a decent size. bummer

We had a front living room. Didn't care for it. The recliner was sideways to the tv, making it awkward to watch. Also a problem was this is the hottest part of the RV. The air ran all the time and made it different to hear the TV. loved the bathroom but would not recommend buying one.

What do you do for money in order to travel full time.. My wife and I would love to do this

Looks good! Price???

I love the kitchen and living area, but didn't love the bedroom.

Where did you find this music track? name? Thanks!!

Really nice for a 💑 with no kids

What brand of trailer you live in?

Does he come with the camper??? Hot damn

Is the dinette convertible into a bed?

Stay away from any RV from Keystone, including the Montana line. The quality is not there, their customer service is famous for being one of the worst in the industry and you'll have nothing but problems. Do your research. Go on to one of the popular RV forums and talk to others. Montana's use to be a good unit but not any more.

We loved the floorplan on this unit until we saw just how little external storage there was. That was a deal breaker for us.

I want one but will never get the money to buy one :(

We looked at a few of these last year, but the really short ceiling in the kitchen made it feel claustrophobic ( versus a shorter ceiling in the bedroom which doesn't matter much since you're laying down). A tall ceiling in the bedroom seems like a waste of space. Look at the clearance above Tom's head in the BR vs the kitchen. And the prospect of going up and down the stairs many times a day was not desirable. I know a lot of people love this layout, but it wasn't for us.

Love the layout but would not work with 3 kids

I've seen one other 5th wheel with the front kitchen. I like it but on the other one you couldn't make the dining area into a bed. Disappointing. How about this one?

Looks like a Mobile Home

I am sure this would be a bargain compared to the San Fran sicko $1.5 Million dollar tear me down starters homes. Park this baby at Walmart and live large for a fraction of the cost of a Mexifornia home.
