Wait, you didn’t get a 3611 as a mobile office or to haul a couple kayaks or bicycles? Congrats on the new rig and a dealer who worked with you! At least you got rid of it before your wheels started to break or springs sagged. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It isn’t too hard to overload the springs and axles on these 3611JS. My parents is over axle ratings with water and gear, no toys in the garage and most of the food unloaded. When you changed the axles and springs, why? Was there problem(s) beyond the tire wear? Are the bushings on the spring...

I will strongly recommend ALL 3611js, 3600, and 3713 owners load up for camping and hit the scales before going out again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What do you haul? Have you weighed the RV loaded? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s a shame the 3611JS is so limited because it is, IMO, the best floorplan Cyclone offered. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not yet. Have a complaint with NHTSA under review. Heartland reps told us we don’t know how to weigh an RV, one rep hung up on us. Certified letter with delivery confirmation was received with no reply. Dealership washed their hands of the situation. Heartland currently offers 2 models with...

The 3611 doesn’t have any carry capacity. 15,305lbs dry weight on 17,000lbs Gross. It could be you already bent your new axle or springs. Good luck. I hope the solution is easy for you. The reality is if you use the 3611 for dry camping or hauling toys the entire suspension, axles, wheels...

Necessary trade offs? Like no water, no fuel, and minimal food, clothing, and wares? Our 3611js weighed 16,100 without water, without fuel, without Propane, without food... I get it. You guys are rooting for the home team. You try to deny these units are way too heavy to be “side by side...

It’s also not only dealer misrepresentation of the capabilities of these floor plans. Both floorplans for these models with same GVWR but higher dry weight show SxS in the garage. But there’s more... Both in the features tout a SxS friendly garage. Too bad they can’t carry one without being...

Unfortunately Heartland offers 2 models now with HIGHER dry weight on the same GVWR. We will check this. Thank you. The later is the current plan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I may sound like a broken record asking about the dry weight vs gross rating on the 3600, 3611, and 3713 models. However, the silence instead of answers is deafening. All of you know that isn’t enough. All of you know that my parents aren’t the only one who purchased one of these models not...

As my “mommy and daddy” are retired, I was working because the dealership is only of M-F and is located 100miles away. Dealer never pointed out the stickers, never mentioned the capacity, but did tell them the unit would be perfect for them and their needs. I will ask you, is 15,400lbs dry...

Think twice about getting a dual axle Cyclone currently offered by Heartland or the CY3611 model. In the future I hope somebody does their research, finds this post and is informed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My 70+ yr old parents were duped. They don’t do internet. They don’t look at the specs. They expected a toy hauler to be capable of hauling a toy. When I talked to the manager at the dealership he told me he has never pointed out or explained the stickers to a customer and doesn’t expect his...

You can try Facebook groups devoted to problems with heartland rvs, where I have found others with similar issues. I will ask, do you think a dry weight of 15,400 with a GVWR of 17,000 is a toy hauler? 100 gal of fresh water, and 10 more in the water heater takes up another 1,000lbs. Leaving...
