    Heartland gear for xmas...NOT!

    Bob&Patty, Did you read the first line of the original post? I'm not talking about the fact that his wife may have accidentally ordered the wrong size shirt,I'm talking about the fact that when she contacted them, she got the run around and Heartland told her they would have it and give her a...

    Heartland gear for xmas...NOT!

    I'm with gpshemi on this as far as heartlands customer service goes. Good luck getting them to call you back. I been trying to get some flooring issues resolved for months. I've heard good things about Heartlands customer service, but that hasn't been the case for me. I talked to Steve Kennel in...

    Water In Garage Tool Box

    A tarp works great. Just lay the tarp down, put your muddy stuff on the tarp. When you get home, unload your stuff, pull the tarp out and wash the tarp instead of the trailer. I do wash the ramp from time to time though.

    how long will the generator run?

    Thought I would give ya"ll an update. Due to our 3 year old getting sick on friday our weekend started a day late so we had plenty of fuel. We ran the generator non stop from the time we left home to the time we got back, running everything as if we were hooked to a 50 amp service, including...

    how long will the generator run?

    Thanks for all the replies. The weather is supposed to be nice this weekend so maybe we won't have to run the generator 24/7. I think I'll carry extra fuel and funnel JIC. Kinda makes me wish I had got the extra fuel tank.

    how long will the generator run?

    I have a cyclone 3812 with an Onan 5500. We will be boon docking for the first time this weekend and wondering if we could run all weekend on a tank of gas. Thanks for the help. Todd

    Any experience with the truck wash?

    Gotcha.. Thanks for your information. Good to know the truck wash is safe. Sure beats the heck out of washing it by hand every time. Todd

    Any experience with the truck wash?

    Thanks for all the feedback. So what about the brightener? Is it just to harsh on rv's, period? Thanks, Todd

    Any experience with the truck wash?

    I was wondering if anyone takes their rig to a truck wash, such as the Blue Beacon to have it cleaned. I've taken my cyclone there before and they really did a pretty good job. My concern is, with a truck wash place being more of a chemical cleaning than a hand wash, will the chemicals they use...

    New pics of our 2011 Cyclone 3010 HD--With full garage!

    Yes the ramp is pretty slick when its wet. It seems like most of the time when we get ready to load up, the mud is already dry, so it's just a matter of sweeping off the dry dirt instead of having to spray it off with a water hose. Todd

    New pics of our 2011 Cyclone 3010 HD--With full garage!

    Hey nice rig. Speaking of getting your garage muddy, here's something we do that seems to work pretty well. I bought an 8'x10' tarp and before we load the muddy ranger in the garage to come home, I lay the tarp out and load the ranger on top of it, that way you only have to clean the ramp.

    Outside Light some call it a scare light bulb

    I had the same problem finding that 1295 bulb, even the dealer didn't have it. I just went with a 1156 bulb, which is the bulb that has been used in trailer lights for years. I had never even heard of a 1295, neither had anyone else I talked to. The dealer did find it in a catalog and said he...

    Poor man's level up

    I have one on our Cyclone and love it. Maybe they have changed the design of them because the transmitter on mine has an on/off switch on the top. When you're not using it, simply turn it off to keep from running the batteries down. I'm normally setting up by my self so it saves me alot of going...

    3812 Cyclone Pantry Storage Solution

    I built some adjustable shelfs for our 3812. I got some metal shelving strips (like you would see on a book case) Screwed one to each of the four corners on the inside of the cabinets. Then bought a laminated shelving material from Lowes (that is actually really close in color) to cut the...

    2011 Cyclone 3812 HD - possible AC issue?

    you might try closing off your bed room vent since you have a second A/C. This may force more air to the back. Just a thought.
