    What Type of Slide Does the Sundance Have?

    We had a 2009 North Trail travel trailer that had a cable-type actuated slide that had rollers that rolled along the actual floor or uderside of the slide box. Does the Sundance (fifth wheels and travel trailers) have the same type, or is it a hydraulic or gear actuated with slide rails under...

    Slide Construction

    A few questions about the slide out on the M-22... How does the slide on the M-22 operate? Electrically? Is it cable driven? Does it have actual tracks on the underside of the slide, or long rollers that roll across the underside floor of the slide? What kind of seals are on the...

    Edge Shell Construction

    I was trying to cure my curiosity and could not find the construction details of the Edge. The Edge literature does not show it, but I did find the video on Heartland's website mentions the entire shell of the Edge is all aluminum. There is no wood in the structure. I assume that means the...

    Pictures of New Red Graphics?

    Does anyone have photos of the new red graphics on the M-22? We saw them at the factory a few weeks ago, but would like to see them again to pass along to some friends. Thank you.

    Shower Plumbing In M-22

    I have posted elsewhere about the shower in the M-22, but have a question or two... Why is the shower head plumbed from the sink faucet? Is it a cost reason, exterior wall plumbing freeze reason, or some other? Is there a potential future redesign for this shower plumbing? We are...

    Changes to 31BHD After Early 2009?

    We have an early-build 2009 31BHD. What changes, upgrades, etc have been offered on this model since our 2009 was built? I know of the following: 1) New Graphics 2) 15" LCD TV w/DVD (Optional) 3) Wall at foot of the bed w/entertainment center built-in 4) Electric and gas hot water heater 5)...

    M-22 Queen and Bunk Dimensions

    I would really appreciate if one of the M-22 owners here could confirm the mattress size of their two rear bunks and the size of the front queen bed. My literature conflicts. Thank you.

    Intrigued by the Edge

    We have a 2009 North Trail 31BHD and really love it. Although it would be extremely tough to "downsize", some days we feel that we could really do better with a smaller unit for the weekend type of camping we generally do. Many times our discussions lead us to downsizing to get into a 1/2 ton...

    Shower in M-22

    I see the shower head in the M-22 is "watered" by connection to the sinck faucet. How awkward is this to operate while showering? Is there another faucet block in the shower I can' see? Is there an issue getting water all over the floor trying to adjust the water temp/flow, or water just...

    2010 Sundance Brochures

    I have been seeing several 2010 Heartland trailers on line, but have yet to see a 2010 brochure. Any 2010's out there?

    A Few North Trail Suggestions of My Own

    Here's a few I'm thinking of. Some of them I will add, and due to time being short, I'd have considered these options, if they were available, leaving me more time for other things. 1) Factory-Mounted Surge Guard 2) Power Shore Connection (Twist & Lock Type) 3) LED Tail and Clearance Lights...

    Looking for picture of NT front cap issue

    Does someone have a picture of what this front cap issue is? I have an early build 2009 (January 2008) that I'd like to be sure does not have any issues before I take it in for other warranty work next weekend.

    Stud Locations on a 31BHD to Mount Rear Ladder

    I'm considering mounting a ladder on the rear of our 2009 (early build) 31BHD. Does the factory have a drawing of where the 2-1/2" aluminum tubes and rod deck joists are located so I can attach to some good framing? This will also help me in fabricating the ladder to the correct dimensions...

    Any Items We Should Check While In For Warranty Service?

    Our new North Trail 31BHD is going shortly to be winterized, and while it is in, they will be taking care of a few warranty things we found on the walkthrough - and since then. Are there any things you North Trail owners have noticed that we should double-check before we take it in to try and...

    Anybody Mount a SurgeGuard in their North Trail?

    Has anybody mounted a SurgeGuard in their North Trail yet? We have a 31BHD, and it looks like the room behind the converter may be limited. I mounted the same SurgeGuard in our last Jayco, and installed it with “peek holes” through the paneling so I could monitor the L.E.D.’s. I intend on...

    Way to Override the Water Heater Thermostat Setting?

    We are a little disappointed in the hot water heater on our 31BHD. With the water heater capacity being limited to 6 gallons, I used to turn up the temperature on our last trailer so we'd use less hot water and more cold to prolong the length of shower time. This was especially helpful when...

    Why Such Dirty Units From the Factory?

    We just took delivery of our 31BHD this weekend, and I can't help notice how dirty the unit was delivered. The dirt is in places we'd never really expect to look at delivery time. We looked under the slides, and could literally fill two cups with sawdust and shavings that were under the...

    Cheap Fans in North Trails

    I can't figure out for the live of me why Heartland builds such a nice trailer, but insists on providing such a junk bathroom fan. We rely on our Fantastic fan in our current trailer's bathroom to ventthe entire trailer, which it does extremely well. The fan in the 31BHD we are currently going...

    2009 North Trail 31BHD Upgrades

    We are purchasing a new 2009 31BHD this week, but it looks like it does not have the diamond plate or the dual service hot water heater. The unit may have the updated graphics, though. Does anybodu know if Heartland have our dealer install the diamond plate and gas/electric hot water heater...

    Towing an XLT with a Half-Ton

    So, if you can bear with this newbie here, I'd appreciate it. We are new to fivers and I have a few questions. We have a 27 foot Jayco travel trailer and are considering upgrading. Our dream has always been a fifth wheel, but we always figured it was out of our league. This past weekend, we...
