Hello
Hello everyone.
I currently have a Montana 3820 FK 2016 model. I started RVing 4 years ago in an Alpine 2730 FB model 2013. That was not what one would think of as a good start. Nonetheless Keystone stood by their product and worked with me through the issues. I am presently satisfied with the Montana. But just like many of you I have questions and am looking for answers. I shall be happy to share my experiences. I pull with a RAM 2500 diesel 2012.

Welcome to the forum from Southern MD. What issues did you have with the Alpine. Glad you like the Montana.

The large slide containing the kitchen frig oven and entertainment center had not been built correctly. The whole slide would pivot from the top outwards every time the RV turned right. The contents of the refrigerator, freezer, and entertainment center would be on the floor when we get to our destination. Keystone finally had the dealer fix it (tried twice). It also had other construction issues less severe and more like what you see in other fifth wheels. Many of the cabinet doors did not close properly etc.

Thanks. I looked at some Alpines last weekend. We are planning to upgrade to a 5er next year.
