Rear slide bunkhouse -- RV type large two-door refrigerator

We are in the market for used 5th wheel. I really like the bunkhouse floor plan of the 2020 Keystone Montana high country 335bh. Especially the rear slide with the bunkhouse extension. ONE MAJOR PROBLEM it has a residential refrigerator. We do a lot of boom-docking and therefore need a large propane RV type refrigerator.


I know I can add solar panels but this creates the question of how many and the cost of the inverter and extra batteries. In addition some of our ideal boondocks and sites are surrounded by trees and not a good location for solar units.


Does anyone know of the floor plan which has the rear slide bunkhouse extension with a RV type large two-door refrigerator?

That unit had the option of an absorption fridge. With the res fridge comes an inverter to run it when traveling. Changing it out is difficult and expensive. Keystone isn't even offering absorption anymore. They have been replace with a 12 volt compressor fridge. Around 5K? Check to see how many watt inverter you have. If it's a 2K that would suit you fine. The unit (should be) solar prepped. Meaning you should have ports on the roof to accommodate at least 2 panels. Add a 2 200 watt panels, a victron solar charge controller and 200AH lithium and you should be good. Oh and a portable generator.
I was looking at the model and it looks nice.

The model you are looking for is the Montana High Country 334BH.

MHC's come in 2 models, the standard RV refrigerator model and the residential refrigerator model. The models are identical except one comes standard with only 1 battery and the RV frig. The other comes with 2 batteries, an inverter for the refrigerator, and a residential refer.

The lower number is always the RV refrigerator model. The higher number is always the residential refrigerator number.

Here's a link to the 344BH model at the first dealership that had one when I searched the internet. Click here (But it says this model has been discontinued. Maybe you can located a used one.
