Yep well said,when they first came out I think in 2012 or so many people thought they were the next Big step in 5er's truth is they build nothing better than any other company or ground breaking matter of fact they are followers more than leaders in any new floor plans etc... they are nice 5er's but nothing special over anybody else out there

Even Grand Design knew when they started building trailers that they couldn't reinvent the wheel. The only way to set themselves apart was to offer better customer service. RV construction is in it's self it's own worst enemy. Most parts are not high quality and labor is running 100 mph to get their quota.
Both the Montana and Solitude use many of the same parts, assembled by the same skill level workforce. Either brand will build good ones and bad ones. The hard part is ciphering thru the info to see where one brand stands above the other.

They did step outside the box a bit with their Imagine TT line. Some nice creative floor plans. Their Momentum TH line also has some nice features. The rest are the same ole stuff. Marketing goes a looooong way.
