There is no safe way of mounting a generator that is meant for outside use and put it in the confined area like the front of the Montana. Both the exhaust and the heat from the running engine would be to much to try to exhaust out of the front of the Monte. Since you already have the Honda 7000, I would suggest like other here and mount it in your truck bed ahead of the hitch. It would get plenty of air for cooling the engine and the exhaust can be vented out via a modified exhaust pipe going above the bed. You can also install a second power cord hookup in the front of your Monte and a cut-off switch to make it easier to hook power from the generator to the unit rather than run a cord all the way to the back of the Monte. If you sold the 7000, I'm sure you would loose money on the deal and then have to buy either a smaller genny or even two of them. Good luck and let us know what you decide to do.
