New Montana 3761FL

Hello to all. My name is Jack and I will trading my Arctic Wolf 3550 Suite this weekend for a Montana 3761FL. The wife and I are really looking forward to having a much nicer rig.

I will be towing it with a 2021 Chevy Silverado 3500HD Dually Crew Cab. This is by far the heaviest camper I have ever towed. Looking forward to using it.

Welcome we have the same rig only a 2021 model. Love it especially the front living room area. Only downside is the 1/2 bath being off the kitchen. Everything else we love we did add a washer n dryer.

I see you have a new truck as well. That is a nice truck. I think the GMC front end looks better than the Chevy's.

Greetings!


I noticed that my F350 DWR was much more "comfortable" with the 5er than it was with my travel trailer (even though it was 1/3 the weight). I think you'll like how it pulls/rides.

Congratulations on the new rig.
I would suggest getting a RVInspection if you can.
Same truck as mine (different year). It will pull fine.

Thank you sir and I agree I like that front end of the GMC.

Greetings. My wife, Gail and I have a 2021 Montana 3760FL. We absolutely love "Monty" -- the space and comfort. We also have a 2021 Chev Silverado 3500HD. It is NOT a "dually', but can tell you the Silverado will pull the Montana without issue and provide a comfortable ride and trip!

Enjoy the new "digs" and travel.

I have the same exact model that we purchased a couple months ago. We went from a class A to the Montana and we couldn’t be happier.

Welcome to the MOC, we have the same RV and love it. We are fulltime and travel the country This January I had 8k axles and disc brakes installed on it and it stops much better now. We are Towing it with a F350 DRW. FYI I have the brake gain at 6.5 but it was higher before the disc brake installation. I am sure you will be happy with your new rig!

Thanks for the welcome! That is an upgrade I wouldn't mind having done.

The only upgrade that I plan on doing is to some sort of shelving to the half bath for more pantry type storage.
