I am happy to say with much excitement, that in November we will be the proud owners of a new 4012 . Our 2 year search has finally come to an end. We just got back from the Heartland Factory tour on Friday where David Porter, Regional Sales Manager at Heartland took us around the Cyclone line and spent 2 1/2 hours answering all of our detailed and technical questions with the assistance of Greg Dischler Product Manager.
We like the changes that they have made to the 08 models. The extra pantry in the kitchen, the larger bathroom giving you the cabinet like in the 3912. The only thing that I personally wasn't happy with, is that by doing this the bedroom is now smaller and there is a slide pocket door instead of a hinged door (I of course can live with that). DH liked the fact that they moved the side garage entry door forward. This will work out better for the Etrack that he will be placing on the wall.
We also decided while in Indiana (a 11 hour drive from where we live) to take in the sights and participate in the Jayco tour (slightly interested in the Recon model), but after attending their tour and spending an hour in the Recon model, we were even more convinced that the Cyclone would better meet the needs of our young family.
Thanks again to David and Greg at Heartland for the special attention and time that you spent with us. Thanks to all of you who frequent this forum and offering up all the great advise, suggestions, problems, etc... You all helped as well with this very important decision.
