Thanks,I need all the help I can get. I've got lots of notes written down from all you good people. I'll get this all sorted out yet.:) Safe Travels, orkirk

Sounds good to me! By the way,what do you do with the rear heartland jacks? I was going to order electric until I found out about this Level up system. Now I may be able to save that cost. Kara told me they charge $2250 for the basic level up system. Then if you added the $800 for the...

Banks is shipping all three Items to me by mon.09-21. At least that is what they said. I'll find out mon. I can't wait to put it on and see if it is going to work. I think you said it wasn't too bad to install. I still wonder why it didn't work for you. You're the only one that I've heard...

I did talk with Kara ,but I'm going to call her again since you all have given me all this good info. I was thinking I could get Heartland to install the Landmark Hydraulic landing gear at the time they were building the 5/w. Then after I talked to Trailair I didn't think they could combine...

Thanks for your help and I'll check that out. All the tips are great! Safe Travels, Oscar and Reta (orkirk)

Did Heartland or Trailair upgrade your front jacks? I talked to Trailair today and they said to make sure Heartland upgraded the front Jacks with the round and pinless Jacks,not the orignal square jacks W/pins. We are going up to Heartland Factory Mon. 09-21 for a personal tour. After we get...

I think I may be off on that 35" after thinking about it. I'll measure it next time I go to our storage building. We are ordering the stackable W/D so that space is spoken for. Next time we are looking at a BH I'll have my tape measure with me. So the fluorescent is still a 12v light? It...

I found out you have to look in the fine print to get the whole story. I called Banks to get some info on the speed brake. I found out that Camping World's price includes only the speed brake and the docking station,but not the PDA. I then went online and looked and found at the very bottom of...

We do have a 5 cu ft. freezer that our daughter used during her college years. I think it is about 35" tall. I didn't think about using an Inverter for the freezer though. I will check on the amp rating on our freezer it may take more than the 800 watt inverter that you have. I think the...

Thanks for the info! We may be able to order a 2011 3600RE. We are helping our daughter with our new grandson till may of 2010. We are going to order our 3600RE about Jan.2010 so we can get it by Mar.2010. That way we will have a couple of months to work out the bugs here in IN. before we...

Thanks for the info! I'm hoping mine installed will work great too. orkirk

We also are replacing an 2005 Open Road with the 3600RE. We thought the Open Road was good quality,just needed more room. We are going to get a portable Icemaker and give us more room in the freezer. Did they forget to put in the sink clips? That's the first time I've heard about that . I...

My wife didn't like the W/D up front. She was afraid the washer would leak and mess up the bedroom carpet. Myself,I like the separate commode room. We do like the rear entertainment though. It is hard to find exactly everything you want in a floorplan. We found it is a give and take affair. I...

HI Ken and Kathy! (KAKAMPERS) Sounds like you are enjoying your RV. I'm sure we will too. It's nice to hear from the experienced fulltimers before you invest big $$ in a RV. I've looked at a lot of RVs and the BH seems to give you more for your money. Thanks for all the tips ...

Can you order disc brakes on the BH? I didn't see that option. That would be a plus.
