Hello From SE Texas

[Charlie]

I am new to this forum stuff so bear with me as I hope I get into this correctly the first time. We ordered our first Montana, a 3295RK that should be in about the first week in March. I have been reading posts and have obtained some good info so far, think that this is a good site. There are a couple of questions I would like to present. What is the experience with the granite impregnated composite counter top? Does it scratch easily? Is it new in the '05 model or has it been out for a while?

From what I have read, it appears that the Montana is not the perfect unit. Did anyone opt to buy an extended warranty? Does this
have to be done at time of purchase or can it be picked up after the
original warranty expires and what would be an ideal contract?

I had some reservations about pulling as this is heavier than my last one, but looks like I should be OK from what everyone is saying.
Have an '01 F-250 7.3L Super Duty diesel with a performace chip, Extended Cab with full 8' box and 16K Draw-Tite hitch. Air bags may be necessary, but don't really plan to load it down too heavily.

For those that have been discussing floor plans, there is now an option for king size beds. This is why I ordered and did not buy one from inventory. In order to make room they had to move the washer/dryer hook-ups into the forward closet on the door side of the unit. Not sure which units it is available in, but saw one in a 2955 RL.

I would appreciate some info on the questions.
