FYI...with 110gals of water, 30gals of generator fuel, and a smart car in the garage I'm pulling just over 20k with my F450 Dually...I drove home today from Marble Falls in super heavy rain all the way to San Antonio and I drove with one hand on the wheel because the dually is so stable and...

Sorry G-Town, I've been offline so long I forgot my password to log in! I agree with your choice of a 5th wheel to full time in, especially if your not going to be moving around a lot. We just spent 4 days in Marble Falls, (2 days with another couple) and there is just so much more usable...

Re: Inverter for fridge problem My ice cream was a bit soft at 6 degrees, then I set to the lowest setting of -6 F for Freezer and 33 F for frig and ice cream is really too hard now...will try 0 on next trip

Re: Inverter for fridge problem Residential Frigs are not new to RV's...It's only new to this price point, and if cheaper MSW inverters performed exactly like PSW inverters Liberty, Featherlite, Marathon, and others would have them...I've found that MSW inverters work fine for Televisions...

Re: Inverter for fridge problem I understand the re-worked inverters are simply being changed from Pure Sine Wave to Modified Sine Wave...I'm no electronics expert but I was a trucker for many years who used various inverters over the years. I have found that everything will "initially" run on...

Re: Inverter for fridge problem So does your new Magnum have the same 1000w shell with the electronics inside reworked? Or did they send you a Bigger 1800w Magnum? I can't wait to hear how your new unit performs in 100 degree heat...Hopefully you'll test with a Hot Frig...If it can take your...

After spending the last 4 days on both patios of the 4200 in the South Texas Heat, I have discovered another great reason for the 2nd patio...To get away from a setting sun that the awnings can protect you from! And the BEST part for me as I just discovered as a very early riser...I can watch TV...

Re: Inverter for fridge problem Hunter11, sorry about your continued slide seal problems...I imagine the fact that it's such a simple repair makes it that much more frustrating

Re: Inverter for fridge problem Somehow, I don't think an MS2012 Approval is going to help with your Bedroom Seal Problem--Or answer the age old question as to what a Seal is doing in your Bedroom anyway??? But if you've gone through 3 Seals already, I guess anything is worth a try!

Re: Inverter for fridge problem Thanks for sharing information on how the MS 2012 corrected your Inverter problems, I too was just approved for the MS2012 repairs...I can't wait to vacation once it's repaired as we've loved everything else about our CY 4200!

Re: Inverter for fridge problem I just called customer service and asked if they would share with me what they are going to pay CW to put in the "Improved" 1000W Magnum...I told them I would then like to pay the difference to have a 2000w Magnum Pure Sine Wave installed. The gentleman took my...

Re: Inverter for fridge problem Thanks for sharing, so glad you have solved your problem with the 2000w Magnum...Hopefully Heartland will see this post and help all of us who have no working residential frig's while traveling.

Re: Inverter for fridge problem I wish Heartland would simply tell me what they are paying CW for the inverter upgrade and simply allow me to pay the difference for a 2000w Magnum "Pure" the labor is exactly the same--Trust me you don't want to have to run across the nation running a generator...

Re: Inverter for fridge problem Wow! You mean Voltage is STILL having problems with their Slides? I heard about that 4 to 5 years ago! I guess an inverter is nothing compared to preparing to return home and you can't get your slide in...Still it's frustrating, the finest coaches on earth use...
