    ATF: Bighorn - Longevity

    We love our BH3610 RE, 2012. I would like to know how long we can expect it to last. We live in it full time. We fix and maintain things as needed, but I am asking about the frame, walls, structure, etc. How long do banks finance a new one. That would be a good indication. Thank you!

    Sofa and Chairs

    After 6 years of heavy use, our sofa and chairs are looking ragged. They need to be recovered or replaced. Does anyone know of options to purchase other than camping world? The sofa needs to convert to a bed which is hard to find at a conventional furniture store.

    What do you clean your showers and kit. countertops with?

    I clean the fiberglass shower with car wash and wax. An all purpose counter spray with soft cloth works fine on the counter tops. Congratulations on you new horn. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Black Water Tank Problem!

    We just replaced our #1 grey that had a tiny leak at the top. Patched it first but to no avail. We ordered directly from Heartland, usually our best price. Only thing is they drilled the holes in the wrong location so we plugged them and drilled them correctly. Before doing this ourselves we...

    Air Condtioner cooling problem

    We have a 2012 BH3610 with bedroom and living area ACs and live in central Florida Without shade. The bedroom can get chilly, but the living area never cools more than 17 degrees below the outside temp and never has. I think that may be the best you can expect. Too bad that air from the main...

    Colorado to South Carolina

    Ok. Sounds like an exciting tour. If you just do overnights at interstate 'in and out' places and avoid destination places, you will probably be fine Sunday thru Thursday. If you want scenic camping or destination camping for several days, you may have a problem. Summertime is busy in places...
