My Wife and I will retire soon and looking to get the 2012 Montana 3700RL Big Sky RV. We plan to tow it with a 2012 F350 DRW diesel 4X4 King Ranch. My question I haven't found any reviews does any one have this unit and what are your thoughts?

Looks like a nice unit - the DW liked the side aisle with the side by side WD when she saw on at the show.

We sat in one at the RV show in Destin, FL and chatted with the Kestone rep for quite a while. What a beautiful RV. I loved the zone a/c, side by side refrigerator, autolevel hydraulic jacks, full body paint, and on and on. I'm hoping that when I retire...we'll be able to trade up to that level of 5th wheel to replace our Outback. The only thing I might do differently, is a 3500 DRW Dodge HO Cummins  I'm partial to Dodge after having had a RAM for the past 14 years. I will reevaluate when the time comes.

Nice RV. Really like the features. I assume 50 amp? Are you going to get 2 ACs? What kind/size of tires? Do you have room for 2 6 volt golf cart batteries? Sorry for all of the questions but these are the questions that I would be asking.

Ask this question on the Montana forum. You'll find a number of folks who have them. http://www.montanaowners.com/

I have owned 3 Montana's and had no major problems from any of them. Recently traded for a 2013 Landmark Grand Canyon which is very similar to the 3700 Montana floorplan. You will love that floorplan.

We just took delivery of a 2012 3800re. It is basically the same as the 3700rl but has a different living area. Other than a few minor nit picky problems, we have had no other trouble. The rig will be ready from the dealer this Friday. There is a 90 day 100% nit pick period we took advantage of. From the day we picked up our unit we have lived in and traveled with it. I would highly recomend any Keystone Montana products. We had a 2006 3650rk and had little trouble, that is the reason we bought another Montana. We also opted out from the Big Sky edition because of clear coat burn out, like with some cars. We ordered our rig with all the Big Sky options and saved about $5000.00 for the paint job. I hope you have the same luck that we have enjoyed in our 2 Montana's. See ya out there!! Dale Hubka, Helena Mt.
