Saw a Dutchman (Thor) Grand Junction on Friday when I went to the N. MI Montana Dealer. It was impressive. about $7k-$8K more than a Montana. Just like a Montana PLUS:

Mor/Ryde suspension AND Mor/Ryde pin box (bragged in the literature that they are the only mfr in the industry to do BOTH). Basement was insulated w/ foam AND covered with 3/8" plywood. Gave me a great idea for my Montana when I get it. Also had a SEPERATE bathroom - stool/vanity/shower ALL in a seperate room. TWO fireplaces - one in the bedroom (a selector switch. Guessing they can't have both running at the same time). Bedroom also had a seperate easy chair and footstool. Soft vinyl padded ceiling. Dry weight on website for the 35 MTS model posted at ~11,200 #, Actual of this one on sticker inside cupboard was 12,100 #. CC of 4,203#. Most of the construction materials were the same as Montana uses. 2, 40# LPG tanks, and a 40K BTU furnace. The one I looked at had a 2nd A/C - probably reason for higher "sticker" weight.

OK, Montana - let's take some notes here.
