Need Advice between which camper to buy

So I’m stuck between 2012 crossroads cruiser Sahara and a 2007 keystone Montana 3400rl both very nice campers. Montana is 18000$ and crossroads is 24500$ I’m wondering if it’s worth the extra 6000$ to get the newer camper? I’ve posted links to both. I’d appreciate any feed back thank you please copy and paste link.

    My concern is if you can use the one or the other with the slides in. Can you get to Fridge, bathroom and bedroom? Never know when you will need to use those.

    I wonder how many people buy rvs and dont realize the refrigerator in not accessible with the slide in?

    Forgot to suggest searching this Forum for each for previous posts.

    Thanks for the making the links. I’m not married so it’s whatever I want ????. I’ll have to check and see about using it with the slides in on both. I think I could do it in Both but would have to check. Do any of you guys have any experience with either brand? I’m curious on longevity and such tol

    Newer is usually better but general "feel" is most important long term. If possible spend more time, good time, windows open, closed with air on that sort of thing.

    Copy-Paste and they work.

    I did and they didn't work. Maybe I did something wrong?

    The last thing I'd check is the cargo carrying capacity of each. It should be a sticker on the doorjamb or thereabouts.

    Clicky links for each:
    Sahara

    Montana

    For us, the shower being in the bedroom of the Montana would be a non-starter. My wife refused to even consider rigs that were setup like that.

    I'm also curious what's with the big fans setup in the one picture. As well as, what is going on with the mattress on the bed base? It's like they put a queen size mattress onto a king size bed base. Though, the drawers and storage in the bedroom looks great.
