Montana arrives

Our new 3295rk rolled into the dealer today. We have been too long without a camper, and are really looking forward to picking it up tomorrow. Have a little anxiety about pulling it as it is quite a bit larger than the 28rls savoy. With that said I'll speculate that I'll be feeling fine after driving a few blocks. And it will really be nice to be at the lake this weekend.

We will keep you posted and hopefully post pictures soon.

Congratulations! I know you will love that 3295; it is a wonderful floorplan!

I also sympathize with you about the size of it. Sometimes, Marsha and I look at it from the right--or wrong--angle and are overwhelmed by the size of it. For a few days last week, we had the old Prowler sitting in front of it on our gravel driveway in the back yard, and the TT looked like a child's toy!

Congratulations on the new 3295. I'm sure you will love the new trailer and like you stated once you get it to the lake and set up you will be walking towards it with a big ole smile on your face that will take months to wear off. Once we got used to turning a little wider corners and watching a little closer for overhanging tree branches we had it made.

Congratulations on the new rig, it's sure is exciting isn't it? Be sure to make the dealer do a complete pre-delivery inspection with you. I was so excited when we did ours, Shari had to keep bringing me back down to earth to make sure we checked everything. Dealers aren't making money when they are delivering, only when they're selling.

Congratulations. You will love the 3295. It's a great floor plan. I know the feeling of it being big. Every once in a while I'll look at ours sitting in the drive way and think man its big. But pulls great. Enjoy. We have.

Congratulations! We also really like our 3295RK. I know the feeling of it looking very big but it tows beautifully. As others said, just remember to take the turns a bit wider and watch out for low hanging branches and gas station canopies. I've been known to pull partway in and then climb the ladder to make sure we'll clear those hanging lights. By now you have the rig and have found out how nicely it tows.

Enjoy the new unit. I know the lack of trailer pains. As Steve indicated, check twice and move once. My CB antenna is almost the hight of the trailer if it twangs I know I am in trouble and stop immediately.
Good luck and tow safe.

Congratulation on your new Montana! I know the feeling. I took delivery of our Montana last week and took it for our first trip this weekend. Matter of fact, I'm typing this from the campground. Good luck and enjoy it!

Thanks to all,
We just got back from our first weekend trip and we just love this new Monty. I am in awe at how easily she tows. Several thosand pounds more than the Savoy but I believe it tows better. On the return home she went in the driveway on the second try and my driveway isn't the best for a fifth wheel.

We will post pictures later.
