Montana is a state that gives you the feeling of freedom and possibility that captures your heart. Come discover the beauty and get ready to capture moments that will keep your memories hooked even after you’ve left the state. From the moment you set foot in Montana, you'll understand why Virginia City is treasured so much by the locals. It’s where the locals gather for powwows and wooden boardwalks still echo with frontier stories that honor the vibrant traditions of the Blackfeet, Crow, and other Native nations who've called this land home for countless generations. I promise that you’ll never forget your first drive through the Crown of the Continent- Montana's Glacier National Park. It sees over 3 million visitors annually, where the Going-to-the-Sun Road showcases jagged peaks, alpine lakes, and wildlife, revealing views that’d literally stop you on the tracks. Tourism heavily powers Montana’s economy. In 2023, non-resident visitors spent $5.45 billion in the state, supporting about 66,550 jobs and injecting $414 million into state and local coffers.
Outdoor adventures are endeared by the visitors so much that they keep returning for it, like river rafting on the Yellowstone River, fishing on Flathead Lake, and cross-country skiing in Whitefish, etc. Little Bighorn Battlefield and the Lewis & Clark Trail are historic sites you can visit to relive the cultural essence of Montana. The ranch stays near Paradise and Gardiner immerses guests in authentic Big Sky Country experiences. So, whether you're soaking in the healing waters of Chico Hot Springs after a day exploring Yellowstone, sampling local brews at a downtown Missoula gastropub, or watching the sunset paint the limestone cliffs of the Missouri River Breaks with gold, Montana offers authentic experiences that stay with you long after you've returned home.
Montana's automotive landscape is vast and diverse, with over 1.2 million registered vehicles serving just over a million residents. The locals rely heavily on durable trucks and SUVs to navigate harsh winters, access remote ranches across the Bitterroot Valley, and traverse the rugged terrain surrounding Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. Travel and trucking related to agriculture and tourism keep gas stations and service shops busy. Although there are no major car factories here, dealerships and repair shops are an essential part of the system. The state's 270+ dealerships and service centers employ nearly 14,500 automotive professionals, generating $735 million in annual economic impact. From the oil fields of the eastern plains to the logging roads of the western forests, Montana's unique geography demands vehicles that can handle extreme conditions, where temperatures can swing 100 degrees between seasons and where the nearest service station might be hours away across the Continental Divide.
Montana's vehicle warranty laws provide specific protections for consumers across the Treasure State's vast distances. Under Montana's ‘Lemon Law’, new vehicle buyers have protection for 2 years, or 18,000 miles (notably longer than many neighboring states). The law requires manufacturers to repair substantial defects after three attempts or replace/refund the vehicle. Unlike more restrictive states, Montana extends certain protections to used vehicles and leased vehicles, recognizing the importance of reliable transportation across its rural expanses. With approximately 37% of Montana drivers living more than 50 miles from major service centers, these consumer protections are particularly valuable for residents from Kalispell to Miles City. Vehicle owners should document all repair attempts and maintain service records, as Montana law places the burden on consumers to properly notify manufacturers of recurring defects within the warranty period.
Montana’s culture of independence means reliability is prized. RPM Extended Auto Warranty is tailored for such terrain. RPM’s plans cover engines and transmissions that could fail under heavy load (think steep climbs with a camper in tow). RPM includes 24/7 roadside assistance over wide areas, useful if you break down on US-93 or I-90. Their warranties allow repairs at any licensed shop, helpful when far from big cities. Unlike some competitors, RPM covers off-road components (like 4WD systems), crucial for ranchers and adventurers. With RPM you won’t fear a motor failure on the Going-to-the-Sun Road or a cabin trip to Bozeman. Start your Montana journey safe, enroll with RPM today and keep your big-sky travels covered!
