I know ... this topic is for ideas for improvements. A place where we can all point out what isn't right. But as I sit inside my 26LRSS Caliber Edition on an unexpectedly rainy evening, I look around and see all of the things that Heartland has done right.
- Windows: I don't believe there's a single model out there from anybody else in this size range that has 20+ feet of window space in the living/dining area. Coming from a popup and loving the outdoors, that's a huge plus for me.
- Lighting: If I turn on every interior light, it's like broad daylight on a dreary day. Again, I would be hard-pressed to find a model from someone else that is so well lit.
- Interior Finishes: From the solid wood cabinet door and dinette table to the solid countertop and window treatments, the interior is just right. Not cheesy. Not faux upper crust. Tastefully done and a treat in the price class.
- Electric Everything: Part of the reason for moving on from a popup was the hassle of setting up. So electric stabilizing jacks, electric slide (of course), electric awning, and electric tongue jack (admittedly added by me) make setup and departure such a pleasure that I practically look forward to the task.
- Axle Rating: Having 4400# axles and tires (even if made over there) under a 6200# dry weight TT gives me a warm and fuzzy that I have enough spare capacity to never sweat any trip down the road.
So in light of all the above, from where I sit there's nothing to improve. Any little thing that's "not right" or "needs improvement" pales in comparison to what Heartland got right.
