Is the Big Country and Big Horn comparable, in other words are they the same from a build, specs, features and quality perspective, or is one higher end than the other?
Appreciate your feedback.

Bryan, the big one for me that drove me to the Big Horn over the BC, was the hydraulic front landing gear. I got tired of all that waiting with the slow electric jack. Ridiculous, I know... we're camping, right? I was told it was not available on the BC at the time I placed my order (about 5 weeks ago).
The other standard BH upgrades over BC are not what sold me (solid wood cabinet stiles, etc). It was mostly about the landing gear!
Unless something's changed recently, the slides on the BH all work from a single switch inside the coach. If you want to run them separately, you have to do it from the hydraulic manifold on the side of the rig by opening/closing the appropriate valve. That is handy, at times.
That is what I really wanted when we found the Cedar Creek but after touring the BC 3650 my wife and I feel it is the best floorplan for us but I really didn't want to compromise on auto leveling or hydraulic landing gear. Since my last post the dealer has called me back and said Heartland would install the hydraulic landing gear at the factory. I may now ask if I could have the Lippert 6 Leg System instead because the rear electric jacks were also painfully slow.Here is another option for the Big Country, I had the Lippert 6 leg auto level up system installed in ours. Now I have an all hydraulic Big Country, and it was wayyyyyyy lower than a comparable Big Horn, that had hydraulic front legs, but no level up. It all boils down to personal choices. I am very happy with mine.

The bedroom slide is now on it's own switch (at least on the BH3670). The others have the hydraulic, lock out selector feature on the same switch.
