I researched 5ers for two years. Looked at numerous brands and models. Decided that Montana was the most for the money. Yes we had china tires fail but GY gave us full credit, 5for5, and all expenses allowance toward G614s with which we are pleased. We have an 06 Chev. 3500 Duramax / Allison DRW. It has 75000 flawless miles. Plenty of power and Trans. is bullet proof. On another forum they interviewed a retired Allison engineer. He said that with "TranSynd fluid and changing filter every 75000 that it would go 300000 miles easily". We did buy extended warranty on 5er but not on truck. We are very happy with both. Our Monty is 2010 3455sa. We have had few warranty issues, all handled well by selling dealer and Keystone. I don't think you will do any better, IMHO. Larry If I had known that Big Sky Package was going to be offered I would have waited and purchased it. Expensive but worth it.
