I want to thank all the Heartland Forum members who so patiently answered my questions and concerns over the years of owning our 2008 3670RL Bighorn. We have sold it and replaced it with a cabin. I highly recommended to the new owners that they join your site and continue to benefit from all the...

I took your advice and did the same thing to our 3670RL 2008 last summer. It was an evil job to complete by myself but I won't let my huge husband on that roof, no matter what! Now I don't have to worry about caulking, ever again! :D

Re: Login since 1/11/19 Forum Upgrade I am having the same issue.

We have used the fireplace to heat our unit (2008 3670RL) during the cool spring and fall days, as well as during the night for almost ten years. We have never had any issues at all, and I prefer the quiet electric heat over the furnace firing up right under our bed! We also have installed...

I also need to replace all the slide seals on my 2008 3670RL and am baffled by the descriptions on line, as well as the photos sent by the Heartland service department. Apparently they DO ship to Canada but I will likely be horrified at the shipping costs. The seals on our trailer seem to be a...

I battled barn swallows continuously making nests under our slides and in the pin box until I discovered that hanging some cheap windsocks (with the long, fluttering strips) would keep them away. I periodically had to go untangle the strips to keep them flapping properly but no birds nested...

I bought a Costco Salton brand induction hotplate for our camper last year and I liked it so much I bought another one for my kitchen counter at home. It is quick and easy, boils water so much faster than the kettle but the fan noise is a bit annoying. I also like that it is a safer heat source...

We towed our Bighorn to the factory for a frame flex repair and stayed in a Heartland recommended lovely suite of rooms for a very reasonable rate. During the five days of our factory repair we explored the nearby Amish country and met some delightful people, including the gang down at Pete's...

A small crack in the fiberglass in the bottom corner of the bedroom slide is what alerted me to something amiss. The next year, a crack appeared in the opposite corner and at that point I contacted Heartland with photos, VIN number, etc. We bought our 2008 3670RL Bighorn new, so we were still...

Our 08 3670RL had several fibreglass cracks at the bottom corners of the bedroom slide that alarmed me, as well as the pin issues you describe. (This was in the fall of 2012.) I took photos, contacted the Heartland factory with our VIN number and they promptly got back to me. We arranged a...

Okay...Ellie (OP) is back with an update on my deceased Apollo Half Time Oven. I found a black Panasonic Genius (Inverter model) that fit very closely in the black bevel surrounding the Apollo. After my husband heaved the Apollo beast into the back of my truck for me to take to the recycler, I...

I KNEW you folks would help me out!!! I have taken measurements of the actual unit, as well as the size of the opening with the trim piece so I will now search for a microwave that fits. I rarely used anything but the microwave mode so that is all I will look for as a replacement. I am assuming...

We have the original Apollo Model AAC24BIB in our 2008 3670RL Bighorn. The microwave function quit today, but all other modes work. We are located in Saskatchewan, so I doubt we have a nearby repair dealer. Has anyone suggestions about troubleshooting? I would consider replacing with just a...

We had some very persistent barn swallows building underneath our slides at the lake where we park our Bighorn for the camping season. I found the only thing that worked was to hang a windsock with streamers at each end of the slides. (I had to trim some of the streamers so they didn't drag in...

I refuse to allow my husband (260 pounds) to climb the rickety ladder on our Bighorn. My terror of heights was overcome by my desire to NOT be a widow, and I do the climbing when necessary. We use our 3670 as a cabin during the summer, therefore I have access to a six foot stepladder in our shed...
