    Auxiliary fuel/ toolbox combo

    I checked on the RDS, Titan and Transferflow and purchased the FTC60 toolbox-fuel tank from The Fuelbox. We opted to have ours with their Z liner option which is like a spray on bed liner. We had the tank drop shipped to our installer and put in a couple of weeks ago in our 2013 Silverado 3500HD...

    Hitch advice request

    Bought the Trailsaver BD3 last October and used it for the first time last weekend. Quite a difference from towing with the rigid Reese. Smooth ride, no chucking and easy hook up. Definitely has my vote.

    Hitch advice request

    We have a 2011 Big Horn 2985RL that we pull with a 2009 Silverado Duramax 2500HD. We have Firestone bags on the truck and a Reese 15K hitch. I'm hearing of stress applied to the coach with a rigid hitch and pinbox and I'm trying to decide whether to buy a air pinbox or air hitch. Any help with...

    Strong-Arm Stabilizers

    I ordered the Steadyfast system directly from Steadyfast for our 2985 and had it installed last month by the dealer where we purchased the RV. We used them last week for the first time and they worked extremely well.

    Thanks to all for the input. I removed the plugs and screws and are now free to move the table. Haven't had it move at all!

    What to use to fill gaps in front storage compartment.

    Point taken gottoys. Your definition/acceptance of inferior design and poor quality is obviously much different than mine.

    What to use to fill gaps in front storage compartment.

    I have the same issue on our 2985RL Big Horn. Hadn't seen this before in any of our previously owned FW so contacted Heartland and they stated this is the way they're built. I consider this to be a major quality/design flaw.

    Surround Speakers

    I find the speakers in my new 2011 2985 RL to be of inferior quality and plan to replace at the first opportunity.

    ATF: Bighorn - Bedroom TV Mount

    We purchased a new 2011 2985RL 3 weeks ago and inquired on the same issue. Turns out my coach does not have a backer. Please see response from Heartland "The 2985 does not have a backer in the wall. We attach cleats to the sides of cabinets and attach a backer board. You could probably...

    ATF: Bighorn - Dining Table

    My dining table is fixed which does not allow much room for getting in and out. I would like to know how to make this table free standing so I can move as needed. I saw the plugs on the table legs, are the mounting bolts located under them? If not, how do I disconnect? We just purchased this...
