    Lack of dealer support and Heartland's inability/unwillingness to deal with it

    I bought a 2013 BigHorn 3570RS in the first few days of December, 2012 ... just over 3 months ago. Multiple warranty issues including a bad living room TV (Sony), cracked bottom in the fiberglass shower pan, pocket door for bathroom where the hardware for retaining the door open during travel...

    Dynamic wheel balancing ...

    I've used these on my various motorcycles with awesome results. Anybody used these on a 5th wheel trailer? Seem reasonable vs classic balancing issues and costs. Once and forget it.

    Can the 3-piece sliding shower door ... and

    IMPOSSIBLE to clean. I know it allows a wider entry point, but it makes it absolutely impossible to clean the overlap areas of the shower doors. And, EVERY item on the remote control fob should have a manual backup switch and that includes the stair light! And, while you're at it ... add a...

    2013 BH3570RS - want to upgrade to LED for clearance/marker lights

    I'm taking delivery of a brand spanking new 3570RS Friday morning. I upgraded all the marker and clearance lights on my 2008 Sundance 2800RLS to LED lighting with a simple bulb change. Now I face a challenge with the 3570. Rectangular marker lights are easy ... The issue is going to be with...

    Just traded up from a 2008 Sundance 2800RLS to a 2013 Bighorn 3570RS !!!

    TOUGH choice. Looked at least a dozen different 5ers including a Landmark Grand Canyon and a Big Country 3510 and (gasp) a Dutchmen Infinity 3400RL. And I seriously considered a wide range of used motorhomes, but momma wanted the trailer vs the motorhome, and if momma ain't happy, ain't NOBODY...

    Upgrade from Sundance to Bighorn 3570RS ... an interior layout issue

    I am looking at an upgrade from my 2008 Sundance 2800RLS to a 2013 Bighorn 3570RS. But my wife wants the recliners at the rear window inlieu of the sofa. The sofa (4 cushion) is too big to sit in the spot to be vacated by the recliners. So I am looking for a shorter (the OEM sofa is 82" wide!)...

    De-winterizing ...

    I had my Sundance 2800RLS winterized by the dealer. I just couldn't find the time to do it myself. Now it's time to bring the beast out of hibernation, but I've never done so. My motorhomes were all stored in heated storage so I never had to winterize them per-se. I just emptied the water...
