After two years of dreaming and planning, we've been out on the road for almost a week now! We love our home!! We moved in with the pets and all about a month and a half ago, staying at a local RV park while we finished the sale of the condo and last minute tie-up-the-loose-ends kinda stuff...

WOW!! It's sure a good thing you and your family aren't full timing...what the heck would they do then? Is it too late to tell the dealer to $*#(@? and give you your money back? I've never seen a worse example of customer service in my life...Heartland, why don't you intervene?!

Wow...now I don't feel so bad about our purely cosmetic issues....I am rather picky being a finish-carpenter's daughter. So far we've had ZERO real issues, knock wood! We are having an RV detailer put better seals on the slides, put silicone seals around the shower (NONE there!!!!) and I've...

James, we have a Road Warrior 405, which has a small couch across from the dinette. We store our long guns under there, with bags of Absorb -dry pack pellets that they ship in the bags of motorcycles, our mechanic gave us 5. We also are looking at cutting a hole in our bed frame (ours does not...

We have a 'no barking' unit that blasts an ultrasonic sound only animals can hear, and since my dog is my service dog, she gets to come with me anywhere, even an airplane. But there are still some situations when it's safer for her to stay in the RV. (we are full timers) We also cannot take...

Wow...I was gonna keep my mouth shut, but.....we also ordered our rig from the factory, and I couldn't agree more! You'd think with a custom order (or ANY order with the $$ amount we're talkin' here!) there would be just a wee bit more inspection or QC! I had just put it down to being a...

Thanks for the tip on the liner! The snap together fasteners are made by 3M, and are hanging on displays with all of their other 'stick on' products. I really like that when you want/need to move it, it doesn't tear up the walls. It kinda looks like velcro, but is far from it. It also...

Hi! We just took delivery of our 2012 RW405 which has the Jensen DVD/stereo system. We did not get any manuals for it other than for the speakers. Can you point us in the right direction? We have this wonderful system and NO IDEA how to play a DVD or watch a movie from our camcorder! Thank you!

We survived a literal "Shakedown Cruise" home, as we got rerouted by a closed interstate 90 at the WY/MT border and ended up detouring through the Bighorn Mountain Range. The last 30 miles to MT took over an hour as it was all gravel and washboard road. We're really, really happy we went for...

FYI I did manage to pull down the foam mattress from the loft and put it on the bed. I had to use King sheets, but it worked nicely! Now for all of the hard choices of what to take, what will fit...the fun part!

The mattress is great for me, but too soft for Pirate, so we're going to try pulling down the loft mattress and putting that on top. Can't believe we made it home alive, you guys! The traffic, which thank goodness wasn't this coming Memorial Day traffic, was still awful, with idiots that I...

We're here at our first campsite! We're having some issues figuring out things...the owner's manual sure needs to be more specific!! Even after the demo, of course you don't remember EVERYTHING!! We'll see how the mattress sleeps tonight, but it feels great! Even the one in the loft is...

FYI about General RV Centers...they pretty much 'make' you stay the night at their facility...all roped off, separated from the public...and they go through EVERY system with you. They want you to take a shower, make meals, work all the systems THERE so any issues are discovered before you take...

We got the happy notification our new home is done!! We will be traveling to Michigan to pick her up on May 14th. It will take us about 3 days driving to get there, and we figure at least 5 days back for our 'shakedown' cruise. We saved over $25,000 by ordering thru our dealer and picking it...

Thank you, yet again, everyone! I really appreciate that there are no 'dumb questions!' The Pirate is enjoying his first Monday of retirement and we look forward to the phone call saying our hauler is ready to pick up. We are working on cleaning out our years of possessions. I'm sure our next...
