New Montana house


After five years of getting on top of the Montana to put on and take off a cover I felt at my age maybe try something else. The crew showed up at 7;15 this morning and were done 2 1/2 hours later. No coffee breaks. I think I will like it.

Looks like a good job and great idea. How much and who makes it?

CORattler, I called the outfit I bought it from and was told they just order the parts from a local shop and the crew installs it. I'm sorry I do not have a Brand name. The cost was 3900 for a 40x18.

Looks to be very sturdy and well made...NICE! Wish I could store mine at my house!
What is the top material? Appears to be metal of some kind?

Thanks Dick. It ought to keep the rain & snow off the top. Any plans to enclose the sides?

Nice set up Dick!!! I know you don't like going up on the roof.....after all you had me install your TV antenna in Quartzsite while you were comfy inside with the kitties and an adult beverage

Very Nice. I'm going to look into doing something similar. I have to find out if it can handle our winter snow load.
