G614 on 2013's?

As G614's and tires in particular seem to be a popular topic lately, I was looking at the Keystone website earlier and noticed that in the 2013 model specs "E" rated tires are listed. When you roll over the illustration in the exterior features, "G" rated tires are listed. Look at the options and "G" rated tires are not listed as an option. I'm wondering if others have noticed and what Keystone is really putting on the new models.

If I had to guess, I would say that the pics you are viewing are pretty much stock photos...I doubt that G614s will be the standard issue...too expensive. Just an opinion.

The Keystone web site is a work in progress. There are many errors, omissions, and inconsistencies to be found there. Under "Options" notice the category "Hickory Edition". The 2013 models feature Walnut cabinetry. The TV size is wrong for most of the models (pretty much all TVs are 40" now). They list "Solid surface kitchen counter tops" yet the 2013's supposedly have gone back to Corian. The pictures are of earlier models without the new entertainment center cabinet.

You can't believe too much of what you see IMHO. When I have a question about Montanas, I ask my local dealer. They are ordering these things all the time and know what is available. Even my dealer calls the web site a "joke"!!

I agree with the inconsistancies Carl, but not just the website-Keystone in general. Case in point:Our 2013 3402RL has the old 2012 floor plan with the angled entertainment and desk. I don't have the 12" frame. We do have Corian counters. The cabinetry is definately hickory.

Montana makes changes several times a year. The latest 2013 changes (new entertainment center, larger frame) are on models manufactured after November something. Just ask Mazboy. He had had two (maybe three) models since August.

E rated tires are going to be stock as long as Keystone can get away with it. Since they know better, they will continue to offer G rated tires as an option.
