We ordered a 2007 and were told we are getting a 2008. Were told that the bedroom slide will have 2 side windows, the front cap is to be the same as the Montana's and the interior cabinets are an ashwood finish. Will find out if this is true soon as our's is to be built June 1st.

Our 2007 3000RK with a build date of 4/12/07 has the ash cabinets and two windows in the bedroom slide.

We purchased a used 2005 2955RL last fall. Upon inspection of the weight plate, I discovered that it was manufactured in May of 2004. A plastic folder that held all of the trailer's original manuals had 2004 crossed out and 2005 written next to it.

Montana/Keystone is listening to your suggestions.
I went an looked at the 2008 2955RL (I have an early 2007 2955RL) to see what has changed.
1) In the side to side compartment they have straps to hang and hold both cranks (spare tire/rear pads and front landing pads.
2) they added a heat vent to the side to side compartment (I guess too many of us have beed trying to live down there).
3) Moved the dump hose compartment from under the water heater to same side below the last side window (between the slide and back of the unit, I don't like that spot as well as its further away from the unit connection.
4) Added a white plastic launder basket (they store the 50amp power cable in it)

Probably others, but these caught my eye.

As RichFAA points out, they incorporate changes all the time. My 2007 3000RK built in Feb of 07 has all of the above changes with the exception of the dump hose comp. Mine is not under the window OR under the hot water heater but just forward of the slideout and about 6 inches forward of the connection location.

So, are you telling me you don't have to do the Limbo to dump? If true, I may have to get rid of this old '06 model.

Our Montana 3400RL is a 2008 with a medal tag on it that indicates July 2007 completed. With nothing to compare as it is our first, it does have hdtv in LR and the older model tv in BR but I don't know if that was also 2007?

My '07 3075RL built May '07 is also as "Bill & Lisa" noted.
