    Water leak

    I have a 2008 2800 RLS. When filling the fresh water tank to full, I experience water leaking up under the underbelly where the blue and red low point drains are (on the curb side just behind rear wheel). It leaks about 3 or 4 gallons and then stops. The fresh water fill is on the street side. I...

    Water Leak

    Hi All, Last week when I filled my fresh water tank on my 2800RLS in preparation for going on a dry camping trip, I noticed water leaking up around the base of the blue and red hoses that come down on the door side of the rig just aft of the rear wheel. First, what are these blue and red...

    Sacramento RV Show

    Got a chance to check out the RV show in Sacramento yesterday. Heartland was there represented by Bighorn and Big Country. The striking thing that I noticed was the quality difference in the Heartland Products versus the other manufacturers in the same price ranges. It reminded me of why I was...

    Slide floor height

    Hello, When my slide is in, on the inside of the rig, there is a 1-1 1/2" gap in the leading edge of the slide (higher) than the rest of the flooring in the rig. For example, you have to step up on the slide if you want to sit in the dinette. If you stand on it, it seems to give a little. So...

    A scene right out of "The Long, Long, Trailer!"

    Well, my worst nightmare came true Yesterday. While backing my Sundance 2800RLS into my driveway, I clipped the corner eave and gutter of my neigbors house, breaking a roof tile and tweaking the gutter (60' gutter). I was lucky that the damage to my rig was only the ladder (bent up). I started...

    Hi, Found out today that Ray's RV in Sacramento (not the dealer that I purchased from but one I have used quite a bit with previous rig), is closing their Service Department for at least 30 days perhaps more.

    Dealers do not want to do warranty work

    I purchased my 2008 Sundance 193 miles from my home in September. Now I have some warranty work that needs to be done, and not wanting to drive all the way down to my purchasing dealer (which I know is always preferred), I called two local dealers that sell Heartland products (Ray's RV in...

    Warranty Work Needed

    Hello, Well, after taking one trip last month in our new 2800RLS, we had not found anything worthy of warranty work yet. However, yesterday I brought the fiver home to get ready for our weekend trip next week, and we had our first heavy rain of the season last night. I went in to check it this...

    Where is the radio antenna?

    Hello, We just took delivery of our 2008 (new) 2800RLS two weekends ago. One of the things I noticed is that I get hardly any radio reception when I turn on the unit. The DVD functions fine. I noticed that there is no radio antenna on the roof. Both of my previous TT's had radio antenna's...

    Unscrewing the Free Standing Dinette

    Hey Everyone, We have the free standing dinette with our Sundance 2800RLS. My wife wants me to un anchor it from the floor so it can be moved (Her justification is that if we have several people in our rig playing cards or something, it will be easier to get more people around it if we can...

    Greasing the Kingpin

    Hey Everyone, I bought a teflon pad that went up on my kingpin so I don't have to grease the saddle. People I talked to said that it works great. Have pulled with it once so far, and it did work good. I have a question though. What about the Kingpin. Do I have to grease it? Or just leave it...
