Subscribed, Gzopete, please keep this thread going with info about how these issues are handled /resolved by Heartland & your dealer. We had a busy 1st year at the dealer with issues but all were corrected to our satisfaction, I know that doesn't help with a spoiled vacation, so hang in...

Two Hands: I would check with the service mgr. at you dealership to identify the proper material / technique for this repair they are usually very helpful / knowledgeable. As jmgratz said cleaning off the old is very important. the service dept. should also stock the proper solvent & tool for...

Hello & Welcome, We absolutely love our Big Country and enjoy camping in National Parks & BLM, State Parks, Etc. It tows easily and is not hard to maneuver in campgrounds. I'm not familiar with the 3285rl but the photos on Heartlands website sure look nice.:D I would also look into the Elk...
