    Show us your first RV . . .

    This is our first RV that we had right before we picked it up. It was still in the bays shop getting the upgrades put in it. It was a 2009 Heartland Landmark Augusta.

    Paper Friction Gasket

    I replaced both of my strainers with these . They are easier to install, you can tighten them with a standard pair of 12" channel locks and just use a little plumbers puddy to seal. Also they are all metal, not plastic.

    Trailer Saver TS3

    Yes they do. It is called a Super Slide and is referred to in page 24 of the owners manual located here You will have to call Hensley at 1-800-410-6580 to get it. I could not find a video on you tube, sorry.

    5th WHEEL HITCH

    I don't have a shortbed p/u. If you have a TS3 then call Hensley and ask for a Simple Slide for it. It allows you to manually release the TS3 to move the hitch rearward. Otherwise the TS3 will mount in Standard rails in the bed of your truck.

    Grounding the rig

    When I was i kid visiting my Uncle's farm in Southern MO we stayed in a travel trailer. The old trailer was on blocks, had the metal siding that many had back then. During one particularly nasty storm when the lightning was striking close and we could see a few tree tops blowing in the valley...

    Which is which?

    If the first time the furnace tried to come on it does not light after three times it will lock out and you will have to reset the thermostat by turning it off, waiting about 15 sec and turning back on. I hope this helps.

    Satellite Television - What do you use?

    We use DISH when we have it activated. We use park cable when available and let the DISH get shut off to save money. We have the roof mounted antenna for DISH and the "Pay as you go" plan, so you can pay and turn the service on for a month then keep paying till you no longer need it. They do not...

    Not a Heartland, but man what a floor plan.

    I think you are correct to a point Dan. It would be 5' 6" less the mattress thickness above the bed, not the entire bedroom. The BH 3750 FL has pass through storage under the rear bedroom and storage under the bed. So not not much difference above the bed. The concept is nice, but for Full...

    Membership number and decal

    Since I got 2 stickers I put one on the rear window of the RV behind the ladder and the other one on the rear truck window behind the drivers side. I put the one on the rear window of the RV behind the ladder since most people IMO will look for plaques on the ladder, and they will then see the...

    E8 Error Code - Low/High Frequency on EMS

    The frequency of AC is used for counters in electronics. So if you only have 50 cycles per second then your clock will only run 50 seconds in a minute. The refresh rate on your TV will not be as fast etc. What the actual harm to the equipment is I do not know.

    Cummins and Ram might Duke it out

    The article said "2013 through 2015 model year Ram 2500 pickup trucks with 6.7L Cummins diesel engines " So right now it only applies to the 2500's.

    Changing insurance again.

    When we renewed on 06/02 with Blue Sky our rates dropped. When they wrote the policy they wrote it differently and saved us quite a bit. We are still covered the same on both the truck (Now list as a MDT) and trailer, just the truck is part of the trailer policy.

    Are You Happy With Your BigHorn & Heartland?

    IMHO, Short answer is not really. The floor plan and concept is great. The warranty process was difficult and really sucked. Now that I am out of warranty things (furniture ) is falling apart. I doubt I will buy another Heartland if we can ever afford another trailer. The Forum is great and so...

    Headed to Elkhart tomorrow

    When we went from St. Louis to GR, MI we went through Indianapolis IN. I've been through Chicago, and I will not got there again. Also going through Chicago you will be hitting toll roads as you go east from there which will slow you down as you stop and pay.

    crazy a/c experiance today

    It all depends on what you are pulling off. If it is a air conditioner only, maybe not... depends if the control board in the older unit is compatible with the Brisk Air II. If you plan on replacing it or think that you may need other parts I would call PPL Motorhomes parts department and talk...

    crazy a/c experiance today

    Oh, I am a plumber by trade, but at the time looking at spending $XXX.xx less by replacing it myself was quite appealing. I dealt with PPL and they did make a mistake on the control board part, but they made it right including shipping of the right parts and wrote off the difference in the price...

    crazy a/c experiance today

    I was removing a Dometic heat pump, so in our case we had to replace everything except the lower unit. But since the older lower unit was slightly discolored and the new one is cheap compared to the rest of the stuff... The Brisk Air II does not come with a controller built in, so you may need...

    5th wheel hitch size

    We full time in a 5'er and only add a few thousand pounds of stuff, so you 'should' be ok. BUT weighing the trailer with all the stuff, water, propane, etc is the ONLY way to be sure. Safe Travels
