Travel update and comments on rig ,etc

We have been out a few times this year.
In March we went to Maple Grove in Randle Washington... nice park... a KM resort, used our reciprocity from Thousand Trails and RPI. $10 per night vs. $37 for non-members. No issues with rig.

Went 2 weeks ago to Thousand Trails at Silver Lake WA.
Again nice park. Recommend a site farther down in. Montana performed well. No issues. No cost.

This week we are at Ravenwood near Silverwood Water and Amusement Park near Couer d'Alene Idaho.
Ravenwood is a new park. 1st full season to be open, so not all facilities are up and running.The people are very nice. Kinda pricey for full hookups, but as with many parks it has to do with location to attractions.Worth checking out,and recommend it.As it matures,this park will be a 5 star, or 10. IMHO.

So far our 2013 3750FL has performed with no issues. All systems are operating as designed.Maybe we are just lucky and got a good one compared to some of the Members here.Any issue we have had has been my error...lol.

This is a forum for folks to bring up problems so we seldom hear your kind of stories. Very refreshing, however. Thanks!

This is where people come to get help and tell of problems. If you don't have a problem or need help nobody ever hears from you.

It's nice to hear positive feedback for a change, instead of all the negativity.

Hopefully some of the comments to your post will not stop you from posting! This is a Forum for "Good and Bad" things about our units and we enjoy all. If we have comments on something bad that has happened to a unit, we make them and hope to help those that post them. We also like to see and hear the "Good" things that happen to us and our rigs. We hear about the bad things but seldom hear about good things. It's refreshing to hear something good happening to one of our members. Please keep posting of your experiences while enjoying your Monte! Come and join us at the Fall Rally in Goshen, IN if you can and I think you'll really enjoy the company and all that goes on! Keep posting jimandlaurie, I'll keep reading and sure glad we hear something good every so often! Enjoy that Monte and your experiences in it!

Yep keep Posting For sure Jim glad to hear you love and having a great time in your Monty like We Love our Monty ,This is a great Forum to get help with problems ya might have AND just B.S about other things besides problems. but some folks use this Forum JUST to Vent and complain for WAY too long about their issues and it gets old IMO ,By the Way we are at KM Resorts Maple Grove in Randle, Wa right now,great resort but FREAK'IN HOT here 96 Degrees but the A/C's are working great and we are comfortable inside although I wish we could be out on the Golf Course here now

As I write this post, our Montana has absolutely nothing wrong with it, and has operated flawlessly for the past 12 months except we lost an AC, which Dometic warranty covered, and a broken window, (believe road debris) replacement cost minus deductible covered by insurance. Can't blame Keystone or Montana for either.

Jim, it seems to me that you misinterpreted a couple of comments of this post. The way I read them is that your post is a welcome addition to a forum that is mostly about problems and unpleasant experiences. Please correct me if I am wrong but I believe all responses in this post are positive and meant to thank you, not chastise. KEEP the positive posts coming.....

I agree with rmthelen. I am very capable of writing or saying something that doesn't really express exactly what I meant to as interpreted by other people!
