John, CT allows a COMBO plate for well over 11,500. Fee is based on the GVWR and is only about $20 more for the 11,500 as opposed to the 10,000. One of the stipulations is that the registered weight cannot exceed the vehicles GVWR which in this case is 10,000 according to the sticker, even...
Malcom, Thanks - Whether 1,980 or higher, we are probably above the 10,000 GVWR per the sticker on the truck. My initial concern was that the truck couldn't handle what we were towing but it seems that it can handle it and that there may be a compliance issue which is much different. Now I...
Bohemian - That is sort of what I am trying to figure out. Apparently Ford has a 10,000 GVWR option on its F350s. This is a zero coast option. What I am trying to find out, is whether there is really difference or if this is something else? If the issue is just that they put a sticker on...
We have the 3.55 gears and the tires are the Michelin LT275/70R18 tires. Don't get me wrong the truck works fine but if it is truly a 10,000 GVWR then I have potential safety issues but if it is truly 11,500 GVWR and just stickered differently I don't have the safety issues. There may be a...
Jon,
So there is actually some physical difference between an F350 with an 11,500 GVWR and a 10,000 GVWR? I have seen some posts that say that there really is no difference and that they just change the rating on the sticker.
thanks
Jim
Good Day everyone. we currently have a 2102 BC 3690 (empty: 12,500 loaded 15,500) and are towing it with a 2012 F350 Lariat short bed Short bed diesel. The sticker shows the track with a 10,000 GVWR. The F350 is a 4X4 with a tonneau cover and a pull-rite hitch. When we weigh the truck...
Thanks for all the advice!! We did a pull/drag test and the wheels didn't turn! We made it safely out of the VA mountains with a couple of hard breaking situations an shad no problems!!
We have a 2012 Big Country 3690SL. We had two tires blow out on our current trip. We replaced both tires and the spare as it was the same age as the two that blew out. There is some body damage and there are some electrical wires on the right hand side of the RV that have been pulled out and...
We have a 2012 Big Country 3690 and at 5AM this morning we woke up to find water coming out of the shower drain and over flowing onto the bathroom floor. Additionally the hall way carpet was wet and a small portion of the carpet in the bedroom (near the wall with the Bathroom) was wet. I...
We talked to Heartland Cust Serv and they sent us a troubleshooting manual. The manual indicated that we should have received a flexible shaft with a 1/4 inch hex end with the RV. Of course we didn't and went to one Depot and got one for $12. We were able to use that to partially open the...
OK all - That wasn't the problem - The slide worked once without a problem and we are back to the same issue - I have checked all the cables and they seem to be fine - Is it possible that the fuse is bad? Is there a manual way toy open the electric slide - I do know how to open the hydraulic...
Thanks as I said I am still learning terms. We had an EV24 battery that came with the RV. This had a 20 hour rating of 85 and was what I was calling, mistakenly, the 90 amp battery. We had problems with that battery and replaced it with a DC27 which has a 20 hour rating of 105. This is the...
