Spoken like the true self-absorbed snob that you are. My paperwork said it would be safe. It wasn't. I expected there would be problems. I didn't expect to have to re-build the whole thing. 1) I had days to get something; not weeks or months. Living with my sister and brother-in-law was not...

This RV IS NOT a luxury by any stretch of the imagination. It was this or homelessness within days. I am 70 years old with life threatening health problems. I saw my income drop from a little over $6k to just what SS gives me when my (common law) husband died and his VA benefits were cut off. My...

Being forced to purchase an "As Is" RV due to a lack of credit and/or funds is jumping from one desperate situation into a never ending nightmare of frustration, physical danger and extreme stress. It is far worse for seniors and the disabled because they are not physically capable of doing any...

Thank you to everyone who replied to my earlier post, "What Model are You?" Also, a big thank you to Heartland. Thanks to you I finally got the correct VIN and model numbers straightened out. It's a 34 ft. 2015 North Trail 30RKDD originally sold in Souix City South Dakota. None of the first 3...

On the RV by the door it says 30RKDD. On the paper work it says 31BHDD. Interestingly, the actual physically measured length of the RV is 34 feet. The dealership paperwork says 36 feet. The DMV registration says 38 ft 8 in. The VIN number from all the paperwork matches. It's raining now, but...

Just purchased a 2015 North Trail, but the owner's manual does not seem to match the RV I have. For example, there should be a fresh water connection and city water connection at the rear. The city water connection is there, but the fresh water connection is on the side up a little from the...

Finally found instruction manual for the water heater. It's an Atwood. Could be either a 4-E or 10-E or neither. Pulled open the panel and it looks alot different from the manual illustrations. Only thing I see that might be the drain plug is on the bottom with a bunch of rust around it. It...

Okay. So where is that? The owners manual I have doesn't discuss any of that.

How do I drain the water heater on a 2015 Heartland North Trail?

Water is leaking into the power cabinet where the power box and fuses are. Where it's coming from I don't know. There is a valve in there that you use to cut off the potable water tank which also leaks which is for that useless "city water" feature. This is the third issue to pop up and the one...

Didn't know. Don't know how long the RV just sat around, but that seems to explain the nasty that came out of the two grey tanks. Thank you.

I do not have a vehicle and Uber is costing a fortune. There is no one I trust to get a ride from here. Have lived at this park for 30 years. Not moving. The next nearest park is 20 miles away and costs twice as much meaning Uber would be 4x as expensive and my doctor's out of reach. I have a...

I have one. Hate having to use it, but, you know, any port in a storm.

The "poop" pile happened in my previous RV because it had been leaking out water and we didn't know. Flushed it out and got a flusher for it. Second time we had to leave it open we would flush three full bowls of water down it and run the garden hose with the spritzer attached plus we dumped two...
