    Front Cap Fade

    I have a 2011 Big Country 3250 and the front end cap is badly faded. I spoke with a representative of the Owners Forum at the RV Show in Tampa this weekend and he told me that Heartland is aware of the problem and may give me an allowance to have it painted. I called Heartland today and they...

    Rubber trim

    I have a two year old Big Country 3250 and it has rubber trim strips along the sides. The strips are about 3/4 of a inch high and they are grey to match the color of the fifth wheel and they fit into aluminum strips. Each of the rubber trim pieces has split the long way and are falling off. Has...

    Tow Max Problems

    We have a 2011 Big Country 3250 with Power King Towmax ST235/80R/16 tires. Both tires on the rear axle have separated belts and the tire on the left side is much worse than the one on the right. It has heavy wear on the inside of the tire and I don't know if that was caused by the belt...

    Diesel run-on - "dieseling"

    Yesterday I was pulling a U-haul with my 2008 Duramax from Baton Rouge to St. Petersburg through a driving rain storm. My cruise control stopped working and when I stopped to get fuel (3 times) the engined ran on for about a minute after I shut it off. Today the cruise control is working and the...

    dinning room slide stuck on my 3250

    When closing our dinning room slide it appeared to stick at the top when it was about half way closed. The bottom continued to move to ward the closed position. By the time we noticed it the slide was racked at about a twenty degree angle from vertical. We opened it back up and then closed it...

    Wall covering in dinette slide

    We just noticed that the wall covering is pulling off and away from the molding on the corner in the dinette slide. It is the side where the window is? Has this ever happened to anyone? How did you fix it? Just curious about what would cause that? I believe ours is still under warranty so will...

    Nitro in tires

    When I got my used 2500 HD diesel it had nitro in the tires. Never having had nitro before I was curious what you should do if you lose some tire pressure and there isn't any at the local service station. Can you mix air with nitro or do you have to let all of the nitro out and replace it with...

    Landing gear fuse

    I had the misfortune to fully retract my landing gear at the first camp site at our first outing with our 3250. The fuse blew immediately and I didnt have an extra so it was lots of hand cranking. Needless to say I bought a fuse at my first opportunity. Is this normal with a 3250? I would have...

    Trailer button

    I asked earlier about the mileage on my 2008 DruaMax 2500 HD and got lots of good information. Thank you for your input. However, I forgot to ask about the trailer tow button on the end of the gear shift lever. Do I engage it anytime the 5er is hooked up or just when going up or down hills? Two...

    After much research, we have put a deposit on a 2011 3250. We will get to see it next weekend. This weekend we just got our chevy 2500 for our unit. We have been reading all the posts about what hitch to buy. It seems like everyone likes the hitch that they have. With that in mind are there...
