Congratulations and great job in helping get this new chapter rolling.

If I needed to make that many mods to my truck in order to pull my trailer, I believe I would just buy a bigger truck already suited to do the job. I have driven a half ton all the way up to a semi and none had to have anything beyond stock gear to do the job. Sure we can add more power with...

Re: Camp Out / Atlanta State Park Texas Iit wasnt my intention to make it sound like 2 chapters was a bad thing. Was looking more for clarification if only one chapter is being formed or 2. It sounds like a lot from central texas area are wanting to get new one going and also several on...

I think I may have paid around 200.00 more for my slider hitch than the fixed unit the dealership recommended. They recommended a 16k non-slider but I got the 20k reese hitch with slide. Maybe i just got a good deal on the hitch if this isnt normal cost difference. I really wouldnt consider...

Re: Camp Out / Atlanta State Park Texas So are there 2 different chapters looking to form here? I see one referring to a new oklahoma chapter then another couple posts about a north texas one. From the sounds of it north texas group is looking at having events in central texas area. Sounds...

I have a shortbed f250 and went ahead and got the slider just in case I get into a spot I may need it but havent had to move it yet. I was very skeptical as well but ive had to get very close to 90 a few times and never required sliding. I think I would still get the slider regardless since...

Just curious why people arent just using a roaster oven then you can cook whatever size turkey you want. Unless you are just wanting to do it the campfire way. We dont always carry ours in the rv but have one at the house we store in the original box and can toss it in the rv if need be. We...

Re: Camp Out / Atlanta State Park Texas The wife and I are both ready to help however we can. We still both work full time but take the 5er out every chance we get. We try to go at least once a month if not more. Now I just need to convince one of my friends and his wife who own a prowler to...

are you pouring canola oil into your gray water tanks as well as your black?

Great to hear you all made it out of the storms pathway. Be safe out there, from the news it looks like some areas getting hit pretty hard.

If any of you in the path of the storms wants to head over to Oklahoma we can make some room also, and if you can drag along some of that rain with you, we could definitely use some of it here. Be safe and definitely get out of its path if at all possible. No need to take any unnecessary risks.

Re: North Texas Heartland Owners what all is needed to get this started? I also have a friend who has a Prowler TT which I see is also listed with Heartland, so Im sure I could get them on board also..

I am having a 50 amp installed in front of our 3rd garage door. A friend who is a commercial electrician in between main jobs is installing it at a very reasonable price.

that is a nice setup JohnDar how you have all the devices incorporated into the storage box.. keeps it simplified for when you go to hook everything up. I think I may have to engineer one to look similar to that.

congratulations on your new purchase!!! i am sure you will enjoy your 5er as much as the wife and i do ours..
