New to Montana

After several years of Jayco ownership, we decided to upgrade to a larger rig and found a very nice 2020 Montana 3761RL. We're now filling the fiver with our things, clearing out things we didn't use and learning how to use everything in this coach. Of course, we're running into some issues but so far, we've muddled our way through. We are very impressed with the coach and really like the layout and amenities. Not to mention the storage under the back of this unit...WOW!

A couple of things we may be searching for some help on are:

We can't seem to get the heater to kick on in gas mode. I've lit the burners so I assume there's gas in the lines but the heater won't kick on. The electric heat pump works like a champ but a gas heater will be needed from time to time. If anyone has some hints, feel free to enlighten us.

We also want to put in a Splendide washer/dryer combo in the closet where it is plumbed. We find there is little if any room for a dryer vent so it looks like we have to install the unit facing 90 degrees so the back of the W/D is against the outside wall so the vent can go straight through. That should be a fun project but I think I have some ideas. If any of you have installed a W/D combo in a Montana 3761FL, I'd sure like to hear from you.

Looking forward to pulling this rid. We have a 21 Ram Dually 3500 Diesel and it handled it well on the way home. I am installing Airlift 7500 air bags on the Ram to help with the weight.

Hope all is well with everyone. We'll be headed to Arizona in a week or so...
