I like the Montana but it is a constant work in process. Always something to fix. I just believe the frost boils would do it in. They are usually marked with cones but now and then they will sneak up on you.
I guess I just feel I do not want to be wrenching on it all the time. Seems like I traded in a much higher quality unit. Just my humble opinion.

Your post that your fifth wheel will not make the trip is an assumption, and far from a fact. Although there is some caution on that trip, and frost heaves are a concern, they are certainly not something that should prevent someone from making the trip.
