My 3400 RL is in my driveway finally!!!!

Did the P.I.D. On my new 3400 RL. today. Ordered it back in January. It was built Feb. 20th, 2007 it came with 7000lbs axles and with 14,000 GVRW label,slide awnings, washer dryer combo,2 six volt batteries,3 smoked vent covers. Mike and Matt at Lakeshore RV Muskegon MI. did a great job. After 5 hours of testing and checking we only found rusty lug nuts and fridge wouldn't work on a 110 volts. I towed my first 3400 today with my GMC 8.1 big block with an allison transmission. Pulled like a dream. It was a very good day.

Congrats folks on that new 3400. Here is hoping you have many more good days. Ours came with rusty lug nuts as well and we are awaiting a new set. Hope they are better!

Congatulations DScott!! Wow, that's 4 this week.

Your Sticker is wrong, and you should as to have it replaced. With 7,000 lb axles, you should have a GVWR of 15,500 lbs (axles plus pin weight). Check to see what the GAWR (gross axle weight rating) is on the sticker. It's probably not 7,000 lbs.

Here is a picture of the correct sticker (courtesy of mailmanguy)

We'll pick up our new 3400 RL in 9 days in Salt Lake City Ut. We traded in the diesel pusher motorhome and took the big plunge to a 5er.... we really like the Montana's. Hope I did the right thing.... Very sure I did

Great unit, we pick up our 3400RL on Monday. The sticker for axle and GRVW was wrong. The email we saw from keystone said they had 1052 units with the wrong sticker. Call the dealer and they can work with keystone to get this corrected.
