It is with much disappointment with the first RV purchase we made that we recently chose to start over and buy new rather than used (and all the issues that can be associated with used RVs). We had hoped Landmark built or had plans in the very near future to build a similar floorplan to the LM...

OK folks, you've just decided to take that leap of faith and dump anywhere from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand dollars of your hard earned dineros into your future home on wheels. You have researched well and know all you should know to make the right choice, or so you think...

NOTE: I would hope that the moderators and/or administrators of this forum choose not to pull this thread as one might construe that action as an attempt to hide to truth: Back in 2006 Landmark Mount Rushmore Suite Pin #6197 was built at the Heartland factory and shipped to a dealers lot in...

As a newbie to large RV ownership, riding out the tropical storms and hurricanes in Florida are of great concern to us. We'd really hate to loose our fiver in the wind! I've been told by my RV service tech "You always want to pull the slides in during one of these storms to make the unit...

Bedroom slide floor on our 2008 Mount Rushmore has broken completely loose from both end walls of the slide box, and is only attached (barely at that) to the longer side wall of the slide. Yet the plywood floor has had no water damage and is not rotted. I'm told that the screws holding the floor...

Needing to have the main roof a/c replaced on our 2008 Mount Rushmore. Original burned up and quit cooling. (remember the Micro/Conv story? LOL). I want to have the biggest and baddest unit known to the RV industry put on as the replacement! We do have the 13500btu a/c heatpump in the bedroom...

OK, I know there lots of threads on "Extended Warranties" here on the forums, but limited on time to sift through em all in search of. Anyone had experience with this particular one [Xtra Ride] as far as filing a claim for repairs and/or replacement on the covered items such as furnace, refrig...

Well here we are four weeks to the day that we took delivery of our beautiful MR, only to have it almost burn to the ground this morning. Not a good thing! What started as a routine day, wake up, get dressed , walk the dog, cook breakfast for wife, dog and I. Now all was good until cook the...

As I look at, and crawl around underneath our Mount Rushmore and look at the frame, axles, and think about all that beautiful [and extremely heavy] granite throughout, I truly question if two Mor/ryde IS axles with Goodyear tires is really adequate for this fiver. I'm not sure if the GVWR of...

Got to see first hand how our 2008 Mount Rushmore performs in extended periods of below freezing temps with hard freeze warnings of 9-11 hours here just north of Ocala, FL the last two nights. I can happily say we are pleased and impressed. Our Landmark may not have come with the R-ratings of...

An instruction manual explaining how this works would have been helpful! Hehehe Based on the attached photo showing the four valves in my basement, there is a contradiction in the actual valve orientation (on/off) and the instruction sticker. I'm on city water hooked to the city connect on the...

As you know, I have been searching for the original owner(s) of our 2008 Mount Rushmore Suite #6197. We bought it with little history as to ownership, maintenance, or past warranty issues and repairs, which are the hazards of buying a used RV from a dealership in many cases. So you go with your...

First let me say Heartland products wasn't even on our short list, much less our intermediate list of fifth wheels to purchase. Instead we had our head in the clouds looking at Tetons, Excels, Mobile Suites, Newmar and the likes. ALL with a price tag to go with them to. But, the bank helped...

Our 2008, or is it a 2006? Mount Rushmore ain't getting it in the keeping us cool and comfy department so far in center Florida, and it ain't even summer yet. Dealer checked rear A/C (blowing @ 55 degrees) and front (blowing @ 52 degrees) before walk through inspection for delivery. Been in it a...

What do you do when you buy your first RV and it comes with no instructions? Fake it! LOL Seriously, never set one up before, thought I had it figured out: Grass site, fairly solid ground. Chose 12x12 inch by 2" thick wooden pads for a good stable footprint (doubled up) Shimmed up with 1x10x10s...

Photos are just after our fiver was delivered and leveled up. Awning isn't out yet. Our car and our toter parked in front. Yes, I have to admit our toter is almost as big as the RV!!! [Toter = 35' long, Fiver = 38' long]

I'm sure this issue has been discussed here before: Being new to these forums I would like to ask help as to what typically has been the experience of others with a similar slide issue, more particularly the bedroom slide in the Mount Rushmore Suite. Ours appears to be in alignment from front...

Having just bought this beautiful unit used from a Florida based dealership, and it having no owners manuals with it when they obtained it, I'm at a loss on many things related to our new to use Fiver. Upon inspecting the undercarriage I'm not sure what type of suspension (name/type) this unit...

First I wish to say greetings to all, we just joined the forums today. Looking forward to reading and learning more about the Heartland's Landmark product line here from actual owners. With that said, after two years of researching manufacturers, months of looking at used Tetons, DRV...
