Good choice! We loved our Montana High Country, but had to sell it because it was just not the right trailer for us. Although, we bought a nice fitting Heartland 5th wheel. I will never go back to a travel trailer again, ever...

Thanks everyone. Really enjoying this. Was very surprised at the difference in how they both pulled and, will never go back to a tt.

Our finalist 5th wheels we were trying to decide on for almost a year was a Montana High country or the Grand Design Solitude. Both great trailers.
Congrats!

Nice new rig Mike...... We'll never go back to a TT either. Although, that was like 5 campers ago! lol... We went from a toy hauler to a full living area 5er. Liked the last 2 toys we had, but, like the living area more....
