On our Road Warrior, the kitchen sink has it's own grey water tank. The access door is located toward the rear of the trailer on the "off door" side. When you open the little access door you will see the pull handle back in there. Gently pull the handle out and you should be emptying the tank.

That sounds good. I always like to keep it around 55mph-60mph max, with cold tire pressure at the max rating listed on the tire itself. I've read a bunch of articles from "RV Experts" saying not to exceed 60mph in order to prevent possible tire problems.

wingfoot, I do not have a Ford F250 but I do have a Dodge 3500 dually. I always use the Tow/Haul option when pulling heavy loads. The Tow/Haul feature is supposed to work with the transmission to ensure that proper gear selection is occuring. My question to you is, what do you consider...

Over the Labor Day weekend, we went camping for 3 days on the Northshore (Lake Pontchartrain) during Tropical Storm Lee. In our location we received an average of 4" of rain a day (1' total) and experienced wind gusts up to 40mph. The slide toppers helped to keep the water off the top of the 2...

I have a Reese 16k and it does a fine job.

My advice to you, go with a diesel truck. Your fuel mileage will increase and if you ever decide (down the road) to purchase a bigger trailer, you will already have a strong tow vehicle.

Hooray!!! Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum and hopefully soon to the Heartland Owners Family. Y'all made a great choice in the Road Warrior model. As Jim said, do a complete PDI and inspect/test/use everything in the unit before leaving the dealer. Be sure that you are satisfied that...

......is like: LSU winning another NCAA Football National Championship!!!! A great thing! GEAUX TIGERS----GEAUX HEARTLAND;)

This is a great thread and a wonderful original post!! It is nice to hear praise when folks do a terrific job. Sometimes all the negative posts get out of hand, but when things are going great nobody says a word. Heartland, keep up the good work and continue to build quality RV's with service...

IMHO, do not use jacks for the slide outs. Also, if you are going to be away from your campsite for a few days it would be a good idea to run the slides in. Better safe than sorry.

lvstotrvl, the RV market is really kind of strange. Folks are always buying, selling, tradeing up, tradeing down, etc. Some people decide after 9 or 10 months that they want a bigger unit or a smaller unit. Others buy a unit, then decide they don't like the "camping thing" anymore. And of...

timbuktu, i'm glad that you have the Cyclone at the top of your list. Before we purchased our Road Warrior almost 2 years ago, I spoke with Mike A. (Heartland's Toyhauler Guru) on the phone twice. He was very friendly, answered all my questions, and really impressed me with his overall...

Dave, your joke about that really makes me laugh. Reminds me of the first time I ever backed a 5th wheel into a campsite. I always did fine backing in our previous 27' travel trailer toy hauler, but backing in a 37' toy hauler 5th wheel was completely different! Before my show was over, there...

The best tip to remember--STAY WIDE before making your turn. Do not try to cut corners.

Congrats on the new toyhauler. Y'all will really enjoy the 305 model. We bought our 305 RW almost 2 years ago and have enjoyed every trip in it. As a matter of fact, we just got back yesterday from an 8 day camping trip (Spring Break). If you have any questions about it, just fire away and...
