    Fuel station mystery

    I have run my fuel station dry two times now and each time I fill it I get only 20 gallons. The label attached to the side of the tank indicates the capacity is 30 gallons, all paperwork that came with the trailer says 30 gallons, a Heartland Rep back in Indiana told me it should be 30 gallons...

    Upgraded water pump

    I am looking to replace/upgrade my water pump on my 2011 RW405 to increase the weak water flow and silence the noisy pump! The problem is that I am not sure which model of Shurflo is currently installed from the factory. If I read my Shurflo manual correctly it appears that it may be a 2088. The...

    Integrated BBQ

    It's not there. I know ours was manufactured in Nov 2009. Would that make it then an early 2011 production or late? And, if not, are we eligible to have one?

    Integrated BBQ

    Mike, our 2011 RW405 did not come with the LP quick connect. Is this something to take up with the dealer or with Heartland directly?

    light switch

    Speaking of light switches, one of the things I thought was an oversight on our 2011 RW 405 is the lack of a light switch on the wall immediately as you walk in the front door. Having to open up the control panel above the kitchen sink and feel around for the correct switch when it's pitch black...

    kitchen faucet

    We took delivery of our 2011 Road Warrior 405RW and changing out the kitchen faucet was the very first thing we did! Bought a nice Moen spray model from Home Depot along with a couple brass fittings to facilitate the connection, and voila! MUCH nicer! And no drilling. We made sure it was an 8"...

    Is it a Heartland issue or a dealer issue? I'm getting conflicting messages.

    Thank you ALL!! While our purchase transaction hasn't been all that great, getting feedback and prompt responses from all of you has been a sense of relief. We have put a call into Mike A. in the toyhauler division, so hopefully he will be able to assist with our few remaining items. We...

    Is it a Heartland issue or a dealer issue? I'm getting conflicting messages.

    Thanks on confirming the awning brand. They did replace with a Carefree, so I feel better about that. They have "fixed" the jack switch, but I certainly don't hope we have future issues with it. That is one component you don't want to fail. When you say no ladder came with your coach, is...

    Is it a Heartland issue or a dealer issue? I'm getting conflicting messages.

    Exactly our point!! We saw that in 2011 models HL was including the battery from the factory, but our dealer keeps telling us that is not the case for this particular 2011. They state HL changes what they do with their coaches with each release. Normally we wouldn't have paid the PDI fee, but...

    Wiring two 6 Volt batteries together HELP!

    LOL..ok now you guys have me confused again! I have a white, red and black cable. The diagrams only show using a red, black and jumper. Which terminal do I connect the white one to? and, what is it for? If you say the white is the same as black or neg, why isnt it depicted that way in any...

    Wiring two 6 Volt batteries together HELP!

    Ok..I am confused!!!! I am trying to wire my two 6V batteries in a series and can't seem to figure it out. I look at diagrams online and it shows jumping the two batteries together from pos to neg then the pos from the coach to a pos terminal and the neg from the generator to the neg. Then I...

    Is it a Heartland issue or a dealer issue? I'm getting conflicting messages.

    We tried to research dealers charging for the PDI, but nobody seems to disclose that from a dealership standpoint. The PDI was $695 (which we were taxed on at 8.25%). Their justification for the charge is that they install the battery, give you a battery box, clean the coach and fill both...

    Is it a Heartland issue or a dealer issue? I'm getting conflicting messages.

    We were super excited to pick up our 2011 Road Warrior 405 last Friday. Before our purchase, we noticed a couple of "issues", which we asked the dealer to remedy. However, as we did our PDI walk-through on our day of purchase, our list of concerns got longer. This is where we started to question...
