Hey gang, Sold the Sundance last week to prepare for a new rig in the spring. I have my eye set on a couples 5th wheel 30-35', 10-11,000 lbs. auto leveling with 3 slides, two couches, Washer hookup and an outside kitchen....something Heartland does not offer. I had it narrowed to the Jayco...

Just go back from Pirateland in Myrtle beach on Saturday and there was a fellow camped behind me with 2 blowouts on the way there. He called a tire service and they put on 4 new Goodyear Endurance tires. They are a new tire that I had never heard of. Turns out they are Goodyears response to...

I run mine at 60 psi when hauling the 5th wheel. I keep 15 lbs of air in the bags at all times, and hook up first. If I were to add the 60 lbs first, my truck would be too tall for the hitch process. I try to remember to dump the air before unhooking, again, because my truck rises with that...

WOW! At least you had putty tape!!!! Guess you all missed my thread about my Sundance: https://heartlandowners.org/showthread.php/61976-Hope-I-fixed-corner-leak-surprised-at-findings

100K! WOW! We did FLA twice, SC twice and the Smoky Mountains and a few weekend trips in between this year. So I'd say between 9-10K.

If you want a real nice place close by, It's only 20 more miles to the Hilton Head Harbor RV Resort. My favorite campground so far, and only in 2nd place to Disneys Fort wilderness.

Just got off the phone with the PA State police vehicle enforcement 9/12/2016 @ 1:30 PM You can reach them at 717-346-7347. And as I thought, we are all EXEMPT from any combination registration and semi-annual inspections except standard vehicle (PA class 4 or so depending on truck) and your...

I think what's confusing everyone on this issue is that we are using light duty trucks to haul non commercially. These PA laws all cite "truck tractors" and those are specially manufactured vehicles designed to only tow trailers (think every tractor trailer you have very seen). And yes, truck...

I plan to read up on it, but you should be registered for the truck gross weight only. I can tell you this for now, inspections are only need to be semiannual if you are over 17k gross vehicle weight, not gross combo weight.

I have a class a commercial CDL, and work for a semi major construction company and many of the vehicles tow over 10k on a regular basis. None of these vehicles have yellow PA cab cards or get bi-annual inspections except the vehicles that are registered over 26k gvw, which is dictated by the...

I live in PA and have to ask why you are registering your SRW 350 for that much weight? The truck can only gross out at 10 or 11k......that should be your reg, not gross combination weight. You're throwing away a lot of cash or no reason. Take a look at that before you renew.

Check out the nitto dura grappler. I ran them on my old diesel and thought they were they smoothest, quietest, most stable towing tire I've ever ran. And they looked very aggressive for a highway tire.

I see this is old, but we haul ours in the bed of the truck. Front tires off, standing upright and just a simple bungee to keep them standing straight. Is this not an option for you guys?

Sorry to hear about your roof. I must say though, I am always surprised by the number of 5th wheels I see on the road with the front 3 feet of roof bellowing up in the air like a balloon. I hope mine doesn't do that is all I can think. Looks to me that's exactly what caused your issue.

Sorry to hear this about your trailer. Check my post about my findings today, maybe similar to your issues.
