    Failed To Meet Expectations

    Our experience with getting our new Bighorn serviced was far from satisfying, and sharing this has been a long time coming because the problems keep coming! October 29, 2010 we picked up our new Bighorn 3585 from Curtis Trailers in Portland, OR. We live on the Olympic Peninsula in...

    Lippert level up

    Dave, We ordered it on our 3585 also, have had it in for service and still won't work. First service visit said it needed to be zeroed. But when I got her home, same issue. Drop her off the truck, turn on auto level and watch it go to work. Grounds the unit first, then starts the right side...

    Removing TV in 3585

    Found the piece holding the TV down to be easy in and out by rotating it down behind the set, same rotation when putting it back in. Was easy to remove, now putting a 1 1/2 inch hole saw through that desk top was a challenge... HARD wood! Cutting a hole behind the set, 3 seconds, same hole in...

    Removing TV in 3585

    Not necessary Larry, the trim piece above holds the TV down on the bracket... it's not going anywhere.

    Removing TV in 3585

    I need to access the rear of my TV in the livingroom of our 3585, anyone done this? What's the best way to get access to plug into the set? Found out how, remove the screw in the upper right corner of the TV that runs into the cabinet, then slide to the right.

    Forwarding Mail

    Greetings, My wife and I will be heading out soon for our first Winter getaway and would like to ask all the experienced travelers for suggestions on the best way to handle forwarding of mail. We'll be on the road for about 3 months, spending from 3 to 14 days in each location and aren't sure...

    From Excited to Disappoint

    Last 6 are 229355. I called the dealer again earlier this week and was told they were still waiting for the power cord reel. Asked him to call Heartland to find out the status. Called the dealer back later that day and was told "it is in transit." Asked if that meant UPS or FedEx, which are...

    Room for bigger bedroom tv in 3585?

    We did the same as SJH and ordered our 3585 without the bedroom TV and later installed a 27" LCD on a tilting mount. Fits like cabinets were built around it and is more than big enough for the bedroom... well, a 60" might be better.

    Duratain Protective Sealant

    Appreciate everyone's comments. We said "no thanks" to the dealer for the obvious reasons, but was curious if anyone had used the product. Perhaps Wade would be interested in proving the value of his product? It appears we both live in Washington, so I'd be open to having him apply it to my...

    From Excited to Disappoint

    UPDATE: FINALLY off to pick up our BH from the dealer... over a month and they say the repairs will be done by the time I get there... been in the shop twice as long as we've owned it. Hope this is the end of shop time. It is now Dec. 14th and we've not heard from either the dealer or...

    Duratain Protective Sealant

    What is Heartlands view of using a product like Duratain on the exterior, underbelly and interior as a sealant? Has anyone had Duratain applied to their coach? My dealer is really pushing it, next best thing to amour plating.

    Booth Dinette for Bighorn?

    Thanks for the comments everyone, looks like we've been talked out of the booth and will go with standard table/chairs. Still working on how we're gonna approach our salesman about the "price increase" by the factory :rolleyes:

    Booth Dinette for Bighorn?

    Re: Question For Factory Follow up. Just got off the phone with the Factory, seems there was no price increase... my dealer lied to me... go figure, an RV salesman who lies to a customer. I would never have though that :rolleyes: Now if anyone does have a photo please share, factory says...

    Booth Dinette for Bighorn?

    Greetings guys. I have two questions, first strictly for the factory: 1. We had a deal worked out to purchase a new BH 3585RL equipped as we wanted and to be ordered from the factory. The sales contract was to be faxed to me last week, today I called and asked why it was not and why no...
