1st time around was 08-09 with a 07 Montana Mountaineer. Took a job in Wilson NC and didn't like the prices of renting and figured I could by a 5th wheel for less then renting an apartment. Used it full time while I worked down there. After that, I sold it to my son in 2010.
Fast forward 3.5 - 4 years and I am finding myself missing it more and more. Started looking for a replacement. The 2011 & 2012 Keystone Montana 3402RL and 3625RE have caught my eye but not having much luck finding a gently used one in my budget. Oh well, I'll keep looking.
I'm retired Navy and hope to get my "full time" 5th wheel soon so I can set it up the way I want, and paid for before I retire for good.

Welcome, Chris.
And, coming from a fellow veteran, thanks for your service. Maybe we can share a campfire sometime and I can run down the Navy and you run down the Army. I currently have a co-worker that is retired Navy and she gives just as good as she gets in the "insult" category.

Welcome Chris. you've come to the right place. Friendly people on here willing to share and help.... and yes, poke a bit of fun at us Navy types. All in good fun, which is why we like this place. Sounds like you'll be ahead of us but that is OK, we get to learn from you too. Then we get to pass it on

Navy Vet, welcome to the second time around. It does get into your blood doesn't it? You'll find your rig, we hope for you that it's soon.
My husband, Jesse, is USN retired as well but wasn't a "target" on the surface.
