Helllo From Sunny Florida
My wife and I just bought a 2017 Montana 3820FK. We have camped in tents, popups,a 24' Terry travel trailer and a 33' CC Silverback and now our Montana. We live in southern Florida year around, we have two seasons here, Summer and HOT SUMMER. We have been full-timers for about 3 years. We are still working full time, I work Maintenance at a RV Resort (Yes I have stories) and my wife is a Nurse at a Hospice House. I have been reading this site for about a month now and can tell their is a great group of people on here.

I see we might be butting heads come football season. I may live in Florida but I am a Michigan native so you know I got to back the Lions. But that is what makes football fun is a rivalry. Yes I will be telling some Life working in an RV Park.
Thanks Everyone for the welcomes.

Does anyone know why the front kitchen model doesn't offer a residential refrigerator? Is it the additional weight effect on the hitch? That's the only reason I can think of.

Just bought a 3820FK......I suspect it's not a weight issue, more likely keeping dual power fridge.

It may also be the depth issue with the way the dinette is. I watched a video of a salesman showing one on you tube and he said there was a model 3821FK but I cannot find any other reference to this. I think he maybe referring to the 3811 model and that is not a front kitchen.
