One interesting (suspicious) thing. They tout the Ford Eco Boost, but the only generator option is propane.
I wouldn't be surprised if the same people weren't involved in both.

A Montana LLC can buy a motorhome with no sales taxes...and the plate is permanent so no yearly visit to DMV or inspection etc.
So the owner can live and park the thing in any State...never ever even seeing MT.
This is why many motorhomes have MT plates- a tax dodge.
There are anumber of services which will walk your LLc paperwork through, and act as you agent supplying an address for Docs.
I ran into a fella buying used motorcycle parts- his Prevost motorhome was purchased just that way- he saved enough ( he said) to cover a Harley FLHTK and a lift.
That might explain any MT connection
