Thanks, everyone, for all the ideas. I'm turning it over to "the boss" now ! ! !!

My Tom has asked me to post a question on the forum . . . . .so here goes: What, if anything, does everyone do regarding the sediment that accumulates in the bottom of the water heater ? Flushing it with water only gets some of it out. Is there a way or has anyone "created" a small vacuum...

Thanks a bunch Tom & I continue to try all suggestions in an inconspicious spot . . . the goo gone seemed to adversely affect the finish so we won't be using that! Keep the idea coming . . . we appreciate all the help. Tom & Sandy:)

It's hot and humid down here in Arkansas !!! Has anyone come up with some sort of additional window coverings other than the stock day/night shades, that helps to keep the trailer cooler during really hot/humid days so the AC doesn't have to work as hard (Big Horn 3055 RL w/15,000 btu) :confused:

Hi folks ! Need your help ! We believe we have picked up a slight amount of yellow highway striping that was wet. It is located just after the wheel well on the slide gelcoat. We've tried everything we can think of including: rubbing compound (dealer did that !); simple green; JiJi; bleach...

Hi to all. Well, we were warned, and it just happened to us. On a Sunday afternoon on Interstate 40 at the beginning of our most recent trip, one of the Kenda Loadstar Karrier tires installed by Heartland on our 2008 Big Horn 3055 completely disintegrated on us. Fortunately, Tom was able to get...

Hey everyone . . . count on Tom & I to be in Goshen next June. We had a great time in Branson and really enjoyed meeting & greeting everyone. . . . we'll even bring Buddy Bear for everyone to dress !!!!

Hello RVers . . . We have two items that we have for sale if anyone is interested and we will bring them to Branson for delivery for anyone coming to the Rally. 1st: A beautiful Wenona (sp ?) 14 foot 2 person canoe. Near new, excellent condition . . .with cover and wheelie cart. The canoe...

Hi out there . . . has anyone had their kitchen counter extension shear off at the top of the metal hinge ? We've been over some rough roads before but yesterday was nothing in comparison but, upon arrival, one of the metal hinges had simply broke in half. We've removed the counter piece and...

SMART Membership Hi Jim and All . . . . this post doesn't really belong in the Arkansas thread so feel free to move it where you think best . . . .we wanted to invite Heartland members who might be retired military RVers to check out our military organization . . SMART. As I mentioned before...

Regions Hi Jim . . . We're members of SMART (Special Military Active & Retired Travelers) and they have a pretty good regional split. You might check it out on their website www.smartrving.org Sandy

Arkansas Chapter Hi Jim . . . Southwest Region ?!?!?! Wouldn't Arkansas be more in line with the Southeast Region or, perhaps, we could initiate a South Central Region with a North Central as well. Just for tickles and grins !

Arkansas Chapter Hello again . . . .still would suggest dedicating time at the 08 rally for those of us from Arkansas to formulate a chapter with an appointed leader and go from there. It's pretty cold for the next few months here in Northwest Arkansas then Tom & I have travel plans that would...

Arkansas Hi everyone.....Tom & I are still very interested in forming an Arkansas contingent. Maybe we could get something organized at the 2008 get-together in Branson. We'll be on a two month trip from March to May but would love to get together with others over a weekend after May...Petit...

Mobile Direct TV Hi . . we have Direct TV only for our Bighorn. We have cable in the house. We had to apply for a mobile account with Direct which allows us to get the Distant Network Stations (DNS) from Los Angeles and New York. We had to sign that service would be only used in RV, fax them...

Hi y'all ! We are owners of new (2008) 3055 RL Bighorn and we noticed that the sound coming out of the surround sound speakers was just the am/fm radio broadcasts and the sound from any DVD. The sound from the TV was from the TV speakers only. You also had to crank up the volume to hear the...

Thermostat Controls One item that I wish the factory had considered before installing the controls in the narrow hallway at shoulder/hip level . . .why not recess them in a box or frame so folks don't have to worry about hitting those tiny little black levers and breaking them off. You have to...
