2nd AC is a must for any warm weather camping...we enjoy it so much after many years of single AC camping ,)
I should have purchased the dual pane windows...another great option for controlling temps (hot or cold) in the unit.

We love the floor plan of our 36qbok as we usually travel with a posse. The super lounge was a great decision as well as the 2nd AC. The slide toppers gives it a nice look and we love the central vac. A leveling system is my top desire bit I'm sceptical that a 4 point would do the job on this big fiver. Just went to the Louisville RV show last week. Wouldn't trade ours but the new Sierra with the party deck and outside kitchen/entertainment center was interesting. Would have to give up the bunkhouse and not ready to do that yet.

My new 5th wheel arrived yesterday at the dealer. They already have it prepped and ready to go. We're doing the walk through next week. It was a hard decision between the Mountaineer and the 36QBOK

Congrats...it's beautiful. Take a video cam to record the walkthru. Lots of stuff to go over and then try to remember it all.

Which model/ what floor plan? We looked at some montanas, very nice units. But couldnt find one that really suit us.

It's the Montana Mountaineer 356TBF. bath and a half bunk house with outside kitchen. Was fairly similar to the 36QBOK. 5 slides though.

This isn't meant to be snotty, but did they finally upscale the outside kitchen on the Mountaineers? We looked at them back when we were shopping- they were just very utilitarian at the time.
Either way, sounds like you're happy and that's a good thing!

I think it looked as good as most out there. No microwave but I don't use one much anyways and there's one inside. There were some models with outside kitchens "Pimped" out but we were happy with the over all build quality and floor plan.

Just checked out some photos- yeah, TONS better than 2 1/2 years ago:
Didn't mean to detract from your enthusiasm. Go have fun!

Also very similiar to the Blue Ridge 3715 BH. In fact the kitchen and living room have the same layout.
Very nice unit. Congrats!

Thank you! Really looking forward to getting the camping season started. We had 3" of snow yesterday which is depressing for mid-April
