Yes, I know, I know. I only missed a gazillion other things that makes Keystone the best for the money. Like I say, there is a reason I'm not a rocket surgeon. My memory is soooo bad.

I own a 2016 3791RD Montana 5th wheel with 5 slides and love it .will not buy anything else but a Montana, but wish they would make a 6 slide . That extra slide will give more room in the bedroom.

I don't understand all the negative comments here. We bought our first RV, a 2010 Keystone Springdale travel trailer and used it 5-6 times each year with no problems other than replacing the ghost starting audio system, free of charge from the dealer. In 2018, we traded it in on our new special order Keystone Montana Legacy 3560-RL with full body paint. We special ordered because this was to be our last RV purchase, so we got everything we wanted on it. Our Montana has performed flawlessly for the 5-1/2 years we've owned it. We have a little over 10K miles on it. We ordered it with the dark slate wood interior and it looks fantastic and rich. The full body paint still looks brand new. Perhaps Montana has slipped in the past few years? But ours is rock solid and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I take it back to the dealer for routine maintenance every 2 years for brakes & bearings, and to have all 5 slide rooms checked, but no problems so far. It's 39-1/2 feet long and tows like a dream behind my 2017 RAM 3500 SRW HD truck with H/O Cummins/Aisin. Montana's reputation speaks for itself and I'd buy another if I were in the market for one.

Unfortunately people are more apt to complain than to complement. And I get it. You spend that kinda money and something goes wrong they explode. The other part is sometimes this is a person's first camper purchase and they relate them to houses. It's soooo not a house. They have to be made loosely or they would crumble going down the road. Also, Keystone didn't make that a/c, fridge, heater, slide out motor, awning or whatever. They just installed it. The best part about selling the Montana is I can tell the customer you don't have to believe me. They can believe the last 23 years of it being the number one selling 5th wheel in the USA. So after all the RV shows, Going to five different RV dealerships, RU-vid videos, google research or whatever people choose the Montana over any other 5th wheel.

This is the first rear bed I’ve seen with a proper closet. I’d be willing to lose the bathroom window and a sink & cabinet space so they could reconfigure it to put the WD back there. The 63BP is my preference, but either way I like Montana’s version of this layout best. Thanks for the tour.

I see good and bad with this, the 2 bathrooms are essential to any home, thats a plus. I dislike/hate a king size bed..how do you make it up with nice full comforters? You dont..they don't tell you that the mattress has to slide almost off the bed frame to make it up. Pantry looks too small for full-time living.. The couches should be cloth, that leather, that stuff starts peeling after awhile. So otherwise a very nice trailer
@happycampinggeoff
@happycampinggeoff 8 месяцев назад
Are you sure you are commenting on the right video? You can walk up and pick up a pillow off the bed practically without even bending over. There is almost two feet of clearance on the side of the bed. That and the furniture is made out of the newer sport cloth material. It flat out does not flake or peal. I do agree about the bathrooms though, lol.

That's the thing with campers. If you add two or three feet to the bathroom you have to take it from somewhere else. So where are you willing to give up two or three feet? Shorter kitchen? Oops, then there is no counter space. Put those recliners right in front of the tv? Can't do that, you would have to remove the tri-fold sofas? I hope you see where I'm coming from.

Have they fixed the frame flex issue?? Montana is the highest reported frame flex caused by inadequate frame design from Lippert .
@matthewholzmueller6292
@matthewholzmueller6292 7 часов назад
Frame flex is fickle to say the least. Lippert fabricates frames for many manufacturers, all to individual specs. The strength not only comes from the frame but the walls, how and what materials the walls are constructed of but ALSO very important how these walls are attached to the frames. All of this comes out to finger pointing and the customer giving the run around buy a few different manufacturers.

That’s why it has shelves on both sides. They are large enough to store a C-Pap machine. If you add two feet of night stands it’s either two feet longer or you take two feet from another room.

I think they will always find a way to get in. However, with the way Keystone seals the bottom and then runs a secondary subfloor above the tanks it's about as good as it gets.

Quality control is so bad the gaps where the pipes go into the rig, the slide seals, the opening between the slides and the floors all have gaps. My 3725RL was a giant peice of dung that Keystone refused to fix after the one year, or should I say 6 month warranty since I live in the midwest where we have winter. Keystone SUCKS.

I used to sell Tiffin Phaeton motor homes. The number one seller in the US for over a decade. Yes, they had problems also. They all do. But some more than others. I'm still going with the statistic that the Montana has been the number one selling 5th wheel for the last 23 years. They must be doing something right!

Cable slides?

That depends on the size of the slide. Main floor and super heavy, no. Bedroom slide with little weight, yes. Also remember they use their own system called 'True Fit Slides'. It's pretty amazing. You can find more information on Keystone's website. When you do, look up the 'Innovation Lab'. It's amazing.

Negative comments for a keystoner RV. I love those floor vents for such a high end RV, what a joke, nobody there straight enough to figure out how to install those in or under cabinets? You have to be stoned to buy this piece, lipstick on a pig is what this is. Cable slides on a high end RV, don’t think so.

I just saw what you said about the cable slides. Do yourself a favor and go to keystonerv.com and look at their innovation lab. Look up 'true fit slides'.

Alliance is a good product but by no means is it better than the Montana. Does Alliance have max turn technology, giggy box, hyper deck flooring, can they run all three a/c's at the same time, ice makers in the fridge, hitch vision, second sub-floor heated section for piping a lifetime roof warranty??? I can keep going but I think that's enough. I'm also friends with a person that used to be one of their factory reps. They aren't doing that great these days compared to when they first started. I do appreciate their customer service. It's really off the charts. However, they can make all the promises in the world but they can't make the dealership fix their campers any faster than any other camper. Yes, I used to sell Alliance.
