We brought home the 3500RL on Friday. I am very pleased with the unit. There were a number of small items to resolve based upon the inspection list that I verified the unit with (Thanks to the forum).
I do have one major concern. When the trailer sits at an angle to the towing vehicle, it appears that the front axle tire cam levers and the rear axle does not. I have owned other types of tandem trailers and have not experienced this. I had the Service Manager at the dealership observe this and he has stated this is normal. The cam lever appearance is on the inside angle of the Montana from either side when the Montana is angled from the TV at approximately more than 20 degrees and less than 70 degrees. Have any of you observed this issue with your Montana? I will continue the remainder of my inspection over the next two weeks. The dealership has and continues to be very cooperative.
