Wrecked Our Monty Part II
Well folks it has been a week since our mishap and I would like to start by thanking all of you for your kind thoughts and encouragement.
Things have moved quickly through our insurance company (AAA)and so far we a very pleased. They totaled the Monty (2006 2955RL) but the TV can be repaired, I pretty much agree with their finding. We have not yet been given a settlement amount but they have been calling around to the dealers checking replacement cost, I guess that explains why I've gotten calls from every RV salesman in Central California expressing their heartfelt regreats and the offer of a great deal for the replacement.
We very much like the layout of this model plus I am still impressed with the integrity of the interior equipment of the Monty after experiencing the collision and roll over.
We have looked at the Heartland Bighorns in the same size class and they have some very nice features, anybody had any experience with these unit?
We should have our settlement info early next week so we'll update as things progress.

While not familiar with the Bighorns, we did shop the Sundance. They seem to very nice and well built. If we had not already seen the Monties we would have put them at the top of our list. Heartland is only three years old so there probably is not a lot of experience out there. Hope you find the perfect trailer.

I can't help you with any information about Heartland Bighorns, but I am glad to see that your insurance company is acting so quickly.
Are you choosing to try to collect from your own policy instead of the Mustangs?
I posted about possible medical problems further down the road. I hope that you don't have a need for insuranc coverage, but it is good to keep that portion of your loss open.
Good luck with your insurance loss.

Glad to hear things are progressing along for you. We have looked at the Big Horn and was impressed with it - loved the huge closet, not so much the basement storage being completely open (easy fix). We had less choices when we were first looking for a 5ver - no Big Horn (too new or now out), Cardinal, etc. in town but fell in love with the Monty and looking to buy another one. Good luck in a replacement so you can return to rving enjoyment.
