Montana or Silverback input please

Have a 2013 29RE . Nice-es trailer I have ever owned. Have no complaints about anything. I hate the term entry level. How about different model. I don't want the longer & heavier Cedar Creek.

I have a 2015 Montana and I am in the process of having a new roof put on because of poor workmanship from the factory and they will not pay any of the cost, The rubber roof started coming loose from the membrane,They say this is not a manufacturer defect, I have had other issues with this trailer as well,Unit is 13 months old,So I would say go with anything other than a Montana,Read the Montana Forums,There is a lot of problems with the Montana roof and Keystone does not want to stand behind their product. Hope this helps you in making your decision.

We were looking at Montanas until we stepped into an Alpine. Not many dealers around but saw them at an RV show and bought one a year later.

We've had our 33IK for a year. The only issue I've had was a defector CO2 detector. The dealer mailed a new one and I replaced it myself. Our current unit has not needed to go back to the dealer. The SOB 5th wheels we had all went back to the dealer numerous times and one had to go back to the factory. So far I really like the idea of the hung wall vs. the laminated wall construction. That was a major reason we went with CC. PM if you have additional questions.

I don't have one but I dislike the cathedral ceiling slideouts for 3 reasons. No slide toppers, possible water runoff inside the trailer while retracting slides and finally, depending on floor plan ( 33IK) rain water dumping right on the front steps. Love everything else otherwise.

The Silverback will be a step down from your Montana. In the FR specifically Cedar Creek line up the Silverback is considered the entry point. Not that they are not nicelly equipped, but just saying. Their floor plans are geared more toward families.
Our CC is fast approaching 12 years old. Except for some wear it still looks like new. I can still call CC parts and have the correct part a week later via UPS.
