This is a bit long, but not as long as the grief it caused. My wife came into the unit and found a "puddle" in the corner by the left bottom of the fridge, next to the carpet. Curious as she is, she thought that the heavy rain may have caused the water to be blown under the vent area. She...

If anyone is interested in the factory shades from an '09 3055, let me know. We retrofitted with darker shades and full curtains. I'll UPS them to you COD for the cost of freight. 1 large window shade and 2 side window shades. The hitch is a 16K Reese hitch in good shape. Towed a Doubletree...

We have made a 3 month trip to the Western U.S. to see many of the National Parks, while we can afford diesel fuel. We've run in to many Bighorns around the West. When I'd introduce myself, many said they weren't on the Forum and some didn't know what it is. We're currently in West Yellowstone...

HEY! Where's everybody going? We're heading West on I-10 from Van Horn to El Paso from Terlingua, and saw 4 Bighorns at different times heading East. We're staying at Roadrunner RV in El Paso for the night (NOT recommended), and there are 2 Sundances here. Diesel is $4.05 at Rudy's Bar-b-q and...

We have replaced the factory tires with a better quality tire. So...we now have "3" Mission 235/80R16ST tires for sale. We're keeping 1, just in case we need a 2nd spare, or a tire swing. We'll ship them UPS or Fedex COD for $100.00. We also have 1 Goodyear G614 (235/85R16) for $50.00, same size...

We have replaced the factory door with the window with a 2nd door that has no window. D/W wanted to replace the door because of the light and she's a very late sleeper. So...that's been done and now we have a 3055RL Bighorn door for sale. If anyone's interested, let me know. Best offer over...

I didn't quite know where to place this question, so the general forum it is. We are getting ready to take off from our corner of East Texas in mid-April and make our way through the Pacific Northwest and Canada for 3-4 months, or as long as the fuel card holds out. The 2 questions that have so...

Even though we have a less than 3 month old unit, we see the carpet showing a lot of wear. Especially on the steps, where the slides rest when in, and the vanity area. Has anyone replaced the factory carpet with a better and thicker grade of carpet? I'm curious of the tolerances regarding the...

I'm wondering if this is a problem of our unit, or a universal issue. While showering, I get the water just right, then use the cut-off switch to wash my hair and face. When I push the switch back on, I get a 3-4 second blast of very cold water. What happened to the hot water that was set just...

This may be explained somewhere, but I'm too lazy to figure it out. I see the tags of Senior member, Junior member, member, and other tag lines. What does this mean and can I be a "Tired and Retired member"?

We have a question on sound-proofing the bedroom of the 3055. Patti uses the unit in Dallas when she's at her part-time gig, and we've noticed that we have considerably more ambient noise in this unit than the last RV. She tried the sleeping with her head at the foot, which does some good...

Has anybody heard from Princes Kathleen and the status of the Luv Shack since the "Incident"?

I've re-read the threads about slides leaking and we've got a "same, but different" problem. D/W is in the unit in Dallas, so I can only go by what she's telling me. Last night, it rained and this morning she stepped out of the bed to a wet floor. She didn't have much time to look at the problem...

Well, the week of winter has come to Northeast Texas and I'm a bit concerned. Our 3055 has a draft of cold air that is coming under the fridge area, through the vents. I assume that the vents are for the refrigerator. The warm air that is generated is being drawn into the vents when the heater...

Has anyone had experience with adding a skylight shade to block out some of the light? We had a water-resistant shade very similar to a window shade on our last unit, but this skylight is larger. Surely, someone out there makes a darkening shade or cover for this size skylight.

We're replacing the bedroom side curtains and exit window curtains, along with the factory shades. We like sleeping in, so we're installing darker night shades and better curtains. SO...if anyone is needing a set of lovely cream and blue( our unit is Majestic Blue color scheme )curtains, let us...

I have had the chance to spend some time in the new (5 week old ) 3055 unit and thought I had figured out a way to add a couple of outlets. But, I was wrong. I'd like to have a 110 outlet close to the floor on the back side of the kitchen sink and without doing a lot of carpentry. Has anyone...

First, a belated Merry Christmas and an early Happy New Year to all. Now...my latest dilemma. We're not old and feeble, but I have gotten very used to having a hand-rail on the stairs to the bedroom. Maybe it's just a habit, but I like having the stability, especially on the late night(no light)...

I'm impressed and very happy to say that a factory rep read my post on the "ask the factory" section, and will make a change on our new order. I tried to post my reply in the "ask the factory" section, but it wouldn't accept it because of a server error(?). I wanted to delete the oven from our...

Something that has concerned me was the inability to have the factory delete the oven. We have just placed an order for a new 3055 with Explore USA (last week) and wanted to have the oven deleted and have 2 drawers similar to the one under the oven, instead. We don't use the oven except for a...

Please pardon my question if it has been addressed previously. As an avid RVer for 21 years, I've owned some great units and some not-so-great units. One commonality, that is always present, is the people that are RVers like to talk about upgrades, problems, and wish lists. I've really found the...

While we are planning the move from a Doubletree 36TK3 with plenty of space, we're considering where to install the small refrig that we currently use. In the Doubletree, we use the W/D closet for it, and then we installed a wire shelf unit for storage in there, as well. In the 3055 we are...

I know this has been discussed many times, and here's another stab at it. We have ordered our new 3055RL from Explore USA in Texas and are expecting it by Thanksgiving. The dealer has told me that there is no telling what will be on the feet of the unit when it gets here. I questioned Goodyear...

Well, the time has come to put up, or shut up. We're talking tough to a dealer for a 3055RL and the hitch is a sticking point. The dealer "says" the factory rep has advised against a bike rack, or any reciever hitch addition. The rep even went so far to say that the warranty, and after market...

We are in the hunt for a 3055 and are changing from our '04 Doubletree 36TK3. The reasons are quite simple. What we had to purchase the 36TK3 for is now available on a smaller unit. We've made several inquiries and don't mind driving to make the purchase. Has anyone had dealings with "Hartland...
