New Montana fiver
We went and picked up our new Montana yesterday. WOW it is nice when compared to the one we traded. This is the firs Keystone RV we have had. It is the Montana 3811MS. We have had several different kinds of rv’s But this is the nicest one. We plan on a full time lifestyle in a few years.
Any tips or tricks you all can share would be great. My name is Arvis and my wife is Brenda. Thanks for the add to the group.

Congratulations on the new Rig and welcome from SE Michigan! May you have many happy camping memories.
Just to let you know, the second highest state attendance at the National Montana Rally was TEXAS!  Hope to see you there in September!

Well it seems no one wants to answer you question. If you don’t have Sailun tires, I recommend them. Read forum on additive for hydraulic system. Use a tire pressure monitor system.

Welcome to the forum! May your new rig bring you many years of wonderful memories. And yes, if your rig didn't come with Sailuns you need to do something about the tires.

No, the HC does not arrive with Sailuns. Mine came with Rainier tires. I was happy I made it 43 miles from the dealer to the tire shop to have them replaced with Sailuns before I made a trip. Dealer gave $150 for 5 Rainiers and we both think we got a bargain.

The OPs 3811MS is not a High Country.

Welcome from Arizona. First thing is to grange the tires and be sure to do a complete PDI. Then have a great time and be safe.

Welcome! Hope you have many wonderful adventures in your new rig. This is a great place to ask those questions you just can't find answers to in the manuals! It seems someone here always has an answer!
