This and similar topics have been addressed before. The official Montana position is that the Montana is not designed to have anything hanging off the back, -------------------------------------

That's a good position liability wise. But at the same time I see more and more boats hooked up back there on all brands of fifth wheels. I wonder if any of them except the newer Montanas have a pair of 10" I beams as the basic frame elements.

One day at the Cabelas Store parking lot at MItchell, SD I Saw a new Montana with a platform on the back carring a Honda 500 cc ATV. That had to be at least 500# plus the weight of the carrying platform.

I also have seen a generator mounted on the back of various 5th wheels over the past year.
