Opinion of factory options
Hi everyone,
I just purchased a new 3810MS. Any suggestions on options to add at the dealership? I have added a 340 watt solar set up. Any other suggestions? Thanks so much in advance

I say ditto on the slide toppers. As far as the hitch is concerned, I chose the Anderson hitch and really like the way it pulls and appreciate that I can take it out and have a flat bed within about 5 minutes. We also purchased the pre-wired backup camera. That may be standard on your 3810MS. Also, something small but important is a water pressure regulator that has a gauge and is adjustable.

Not a dealer option (I think?), but get a Progressive or something similar to protect your electronics.

Wife had to have a washer and dryer. Our 3911FB legacy came pretty well loaded. Didn't have to add anything other than the w&d. Maybe add a satellite dish later on.

I think The new Montana’s you can order with Slide Toppers, disc brakes, and some sort of EMS not sure it is Progressive, but I installed one myself on all my units that I have had first one read their instructions, it is easy but take your time great investment.

I added slide toppers to mine immediately, installed an inverter and balanced the tires.
