    Patio awning

    I've seen several 5th wheels with a patio awning mounted on a slider. I don't mean a slide topper but a normal size awning to fit on a slider about 10 to 12 feet.

    Chair

    We didn't get the chair either. Started using a dining room chair. That got to be a pain. Now we use a fold a chair that is easily folded up for more room in the living area. It also gives us an extra chair if needed. Store it in the closest when travelling. Jim

    Screen Door Plexi Glass

    I did my own. For the rounded corners i found something that was similar is shape trace it on the glass and it with a plexi glass cutter, smoothed the edges with sand paper. I used velcro to install on the inside of the door so that i can remove it easily. Jim

    Has Anyone Done This?

    We just did this, but haven't travelled with it yet. The movement inside the 5ver seems ever so slight. What i'm going to do is protect the table with padding against the window the other side the slider will stop it from moving. If i think things move i'll figure out some way of tying the...

    First Ever Heartland Encounter

    We arrived at Thousand Trails Chesapeake Tueday 10-16 and to our amazement there was a Bighorn 5ver sitting on a site. This was our first sighting of a Heartland RV other than at a rally.
