    Black Water tank valve cable

    We have been having issues with the black water tank valve in a 2010 Landmark Grand Canyon. It never has worked very smooth and easy from day 1, the grey water tanks so far are much better. The cable finally came apart behind the handle, it is still attached at the valve. Which I must add is...

    Grand Canyon bedroom slide

    I have a 2011 Grand Canyon which at purchase I had intended to keep updating every two years or so. Well, it didn't happen and the year I was going to do it, when I looked the super slide bedroom and desk with kitchen peninsula was no longer available! So, even though my husband says get rid...

    Heartland's -- 2011 LANDMARK LM Grand Canyon

    Just came across this posting and am wondering if you bought the 2011 Grand Canyon, and if so what you paid for it? I have one I am thinking about selling this fall. We are happy with it, just thinking about something different or retiring. We use it June-Nov. just my husband and I in it...

    Water freeze up where?

    Well, it thawed out about 2:00 yesterday afternoon with sun and running the furnace much warmer than I would have otherwise. Last night it got down to mid 20's I think and everything good but I did put a small fan heater in the basement and flushed the toilet during the night. The furnace was...

    Water freeze up where?

    We have weathered our first cold spell in SD in a 2011 Grand Canyon. I filled the fresh water tank and figured on running on that until it warms up. Got down to about 20 degrees last night and this morning no water and the pump calling for it steady. The gas furnace was on but turned down to...

    washer/dryer

    I had the Splendide stack factory installed in a 2011 Grand Canyon and it is great! Works well and fairly quiet, looks good the way it fits too. The vent iWould be s just out the sidewall, quite high of course. Had a smaller stack in a previous unit a dealer installed without the "pan"...

    Give Heartland your feedback on the 2012 Landmark - what do you want?

    I bought the 2011 Grand Canyon specifically for the desk area! You have to keep that so on the road self employed have floorplan for it. Definitely do not like the furniture arrangement, if you go back to the couch fitting on the back wall and the recliners in the slide out (yes, they should...

    No napping if someone is walking around in 5th wheel

    I went with the Steadyfast on 2011 LM and they help a lot, settles down the washer too. You also need to train people to work on developing their "trailer walk", our son is 22 now and no longer along with us, but he still has a habit of walking lightly on the balls of his feet when shoeless...

    Dometic RM3962 in 2011 Landmark

    Well, it has been really humid too. I'll try turning it down, had to turn it up at first as it didn't seem to cool well. I don't remember what they were for refrigerators but the last Holiday Rambler fridge the fins stayed perfectly clean for sure, and I think the King of the Road frig. before...

    Dometic RM3962 in 2011 Landmark

    This may be premature as I haven't gotten out the Dometic book, but isn't this supposed to be an auto defrost model? The fins in the frig are getting pretty thickly frosted up, I thought they were supposed to defrost into the drip tray under them. Still cooling well, at first it seemed to take...

    Landmark grey tanks

    Yep, same here but haven't gotten around to moving the striker. Don't know if I'll move the latch to hold it open or just keep pulling on it to latch it open. Used the label maker to mark under the bedroom slide control OPEN BEDROOM DOOR, seems pointless to have it marked at the top of the...

    Tow vehicle

    Ted, What are you getting for mileage with the 2011? Heard the urea burners are doing well. I get about 9 1/2 mpg with the Grand Canyon (depending, of course) and about 18 running empty, but always pretty hard with the 2010 F350. I pulled a 40' MacDon flexhead (tricycle trailer, no wait on...

    Landmark grey tanks

    Pretty sure bathroom is grey 1 and kitchen grey 2. I have a 2011 Grand Canyon also, does your bedroom door work OK? Mine is about a half inch high to both shut and latch open, haven't gotten around to fixing it.

    Tow vehicle

    I've been pulling a 2011 Grand Canyon with a 2010 single tired 6.4 F350 and it is fine, am probably just over 2000 miles now since May. Also have a F550 dually but it really isn't necessary for the Landmark as it pulls easy for what you've got there. We had a 40' King of the Road we pulled...

    Water Softener

    Just an update to say I bought a softener from a water guy on ebay putting them together himself for $248. shipping included. Not fancy but works fine, manually regenerated.
