    Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Hitch

    I've read that the Reese Goosebox hitch is approved for use on Heartland trailers and won't void the warranty. What about the Andersen hitch that works on much of the same principle? The Andersen Ultimate retains use of a traditional 5th wheel hitch i.e. Trail Air, but adds an adaptor box on...

    What's the poop on composting toilets?

    I never really gave them much thought until recently. I know they've been around for years and common in boats. Lately, I've been reading up on them and their application in rvs is appealing to me. We won't boondock so the benefit in that regard isn't a factor. The benefit I would get from a...

    Chapters and Fulltimers

    Once we get our Landmark we will head out as fulltimers. As fulltimers we won't be tied to one geographic area. From reading forum posts I gather that Heartland owners are welcome at any Chapter rally regardless of location. With that in mind, is there any benefit to being associated with/a...

    Factory Installed Options

    On the build sheets I received from the dealership it lists some of the options I want as "dealer installed options." One of those options is the stackable washer/dryer. I read in someone's post that you can request the factory drill the hole for the dryer vent and paint the vent cover to...

    Rear bicycle hitch question

    The factory bicycle hitch is rated at 150 lbs. I pressed down on the hitch at the receiver with my hand and noticed flex. I applied nowhere near the up/down force that would be experienced with a rack and 2 bikes attached as the trailer bounces down the road. Has anyone experienced any...

    2014 Big Horn 2nd A/C option

    When you opt for the 2nd a/c in the bedroom, is it fully ducted to augment the existing living room a/c or is it an isolated unit only supplying cooling for the bedroom? Is it noisy? I see the traditional a/c grate with the quick-cool slider in pictures and this has me concerned about the...

    2014 Landmark-poor quality wood stain

    While looking at Landmarks last weekend at a dealership we noticed poor quality and mismatched stain throughout the unit. On cabinet doors, the stain was applied so thinly that it gave the impression the trailer was well-used. The color looked more pink than reddish. There was also an obvious...

    Seeking dealership advice on 2014 Landmark purchase

    I believe we're getting close to making a decision. Can anyone offer up the name of a dealership where they feel they got the best deal on a Landmark? We live in Florida but are willing to travel for significant savings. When we purchased our last DRV 5'er we traveled to Indiana because...

    2014 Landmark ordering questions

    I have an order form for the Landmark. I need to ask some questions here because I suspect this form may be lacking in areas. I would ask the dealership these questions but getting a reply has been hit-or-miss lately. -It lists the Shurflo 5.7 as the standard water pump. I read within these...

    Key Largo stereo/DVD on side of bedroom dresser

    Looking at pics of the bedroom in the Key Largo I see that the stereo/DVD player is on the side of the dresser facing the washer/dryer closet. If the remote control is IR then it would seem it would not be able to control the stereo/DVD player while one is in bed. Have any of you found this to...

    Heartland vs Keystone

    I would ask this question on rv.net but that place has turned into the worst rv forum for asking comparison questions. Usually turns into brand-bashing with insults thrown at people who don’t cheerlead for a certain brand. In the end, the thread may get locked down and the OP isn’t any better...
