Montana high country quality

I just recently sold my 40' diesel motor home and are now looking for a fifthwheel. We will only tow it approx. 1,500 miles a year in the form of 3, one week trips. We originally wanted a 2016 Montana 3160rl but I have started looking at the Montana high country 305rl. The build quality looks similar to my old 2004 Montana fifthwheel. I know I would like some of the new Montana features like the automatic leveling, bigger fridge fancier amenities but do to our limited use, I could live without them. Does anyone have any insight on the difference in build quality between these two units?
Thank you

    You might ask your question on the Montana Owners Club forum. There are owners of all the various Montanas there and should be able to answer your question.

    I also know some of the differences between the two include a 10" I beam frame versus a 12" I beam frame. Since it is a smaller unit and I'm not using it that much, I don't know if that would be a factor.
    I was also looking at a 2011 kz Durango but I don't know anything about that brand, it's quality or the value.
