Montana

I have owned and fulltimed in 3 of them a 2004 ,2012 and my 2015 and all have been good to me with minimal problems so I keep buying them they have always been the best "bang for the buck" 5er out there for me like better pin boxes better suspensions,quality TV's and sound systems,lots of innovative floor plans for just about anybody etc.. do they make some Lemons ???? Yep but when you sell as many 5er's as Montana you here about it more.. just my experience

Our 2016 Montana 3100 RL has been great and never back to the dealer. One person on here I know of has had a Montana frame problem but it was fixed even though it took a while. I will let Fish tell us what brand has never had a single frame problem. Montana can make a lemon, so can Ford. I agree with what BO said, pay your money and take your chances.

There's a member here that owns a Montana that had a lippert frame crack. His experience to get Montana to fix the problem was a circus show to put it mildly. Other manufacturers maybe just as bad, but why take the risk.

Good luck on your search...

Almost every trailer has a Lippert frame. Many have had problems with cracking near the front upper deck. Mostly on 2008-2011 or so models. Haven't heard of many recently. I know of a couple that Lippert took care of with no questions. You pays your money, you take your chances.

Might consider something bigger for full time. Another 9 or 10 feet will add a lot to your living and storage area. Believe me.

Ask your question on the Montana Owners Club (MOC) forum for actual owner’s opinions and experiences.

As good as any in that price range.
