I know this is an old thread but I have the same setup as you do a 2023 Mallard M210RB that I towing behind my 2024 GMC Sierra Crew cab with the 5.3L. I get 20plus mpg when just driving (freeway) but I'm lucky to get 10mpg when towing. I just took a small trip to Falling Waters campground using...

Where were you able to fine 1in. PVC? Now that sounds like a plan.

Okay thanks. I'll try to contact Heartland about the floor.

I saw a little bit of wood rot under the main slide out on the door side and put some water proof tape to help divert the water but I guess it didn't work because now the carpet under where the table and chairs go is wet. Does this mean ripping up the carpet and replacing the flooring or is it...

I just want to say hi. Was fulltiming since 2008 in a Tiffin Phaeton with my wife. We moved onto our daughter property here in northern Florida in 2016. My wife of 47 years passed May 2019 from Pancreatic cancer. Had to file bankruptcy. I lost the Phaeton and bought this Big Horn. Won't be...

I would have been just happy with one battery as I'm going to be stuck to 50amp service for the next five years but I already purchased the two batteries based on 1) dealers statement and 2) my failure to check before buying two batteries. So I'll just hook the spare up and be on the safe side.

Yes that's my thought also. in fact just got wire and post clips yesterday.

The 5th Wheel did not come with a generator but I have a 2000w Yamaha I plan to place in the holding area for emergencies. Not sure how that will effect the batteries as I'm hooked up to shore power 100% of the time (long story and don't want to boor you here) and only need the generator encase...

Thanks Dave I was thinking the same thing. Rex

Thanks Guys, This was another case of check twice before cutting or in this case buying. When I was looking at the RV before purchasing the dealer said it has two battery boxes but only one battery and if I wanted to use the other box I would need to buy another battery. Already knew I was...

Hello All, I just got my 2011 Big Horn 3610, lived in a Tiffin Phaeton for the last 10 years so I'm familiar with RV living but not all the little ends and outs of this RV. I have two battery boxes one in the side compartment that is hooked up to the 12v system, but I have another box in the...
