2025 295rl

Glad to part of this forum. Traded my old 34ft fifth wheel in for the new Montana High Country 295RL.. i live in Northern Mi, retired, and I am a wood turning artist. I enjoy hiking, biking kayaking, fishing & hunting. Looking forward to going cross county camping.. Hoping I don’t run into the major issues like frame flex.

Welcome aboard! We've enjoyed our HC for the past 6 years. The 295RL replaced our 305RL in the HC line up. They are very similar in size and weight. We have had no issues at all with frame flex. Seems like you should get similar performance...here's hoping

Again, welcome and enjoy the travels

Welcome to the club

We are from Houghton Lake and have a 2020 294RL. The was the same model as yours with the gas/electric fridge. We have made several long trips, Florida 2 times, Arizona, and Glacier National Park in Montana. We love ours. Have replaced the top cables on the bedroom slide and the black tank drain cable. Pretty minor issues. I have done alot of mods and additions. This year I did a lithium battery, solar panel, DC to DC charger before our Glacier trip. Spent a week in the park with no utilities. The system worked great. Even had enough power to keep the mini fridge in the basement powered up.
