    Edge no longer made. Would you still buy one?

    Im in the market for a light TT. I was looking at an Edge 18, or the MPG 184. Turns out neither of these are made any longer. Would you current/previous Heartland owners buy one of these TT's now that they are no longer in production. There just doesnt seen to be anything out there as light...

    Slide or Not to Slide

    This really helped me decide to go with the slide. I was looking at the weight as well. But it seems the pluses way out weigh (good one huh) the minuses.......

    Added Solar

    I would really like to create a solar system with two good sized panels on the roof. This is a good place to start. http://www.wholesalesolar.com/RV.html

    Edge versus Wilderness

    Interesting, the Wilderness models are WAY heavier than the Edge models. I wonder if it was simply to costly to make the Edge line?

    Towing an "Edge"

    Hello everyone, Im a newbie, but Im looking at either an Edge M18 or an MPG 184. So everyone seems to think a no sway and weight distro hitch is the way to go. Anyone seen these Anderson models? They look pretty nice...

    My solution for adding inverter to my Edge M21

    Very nice. I was thinking of adding a dual panel set up to my M18. Do you feel you could properly add panels to the roof of these trailers.

    Solar power for an Edge M18

    Hello, Im looking into either an Edge M18 or an MPG 184. Id like to add a solar power system to either trailer for extended outings. There are many very nice systems available. My question is do you know of anyone who has mounted a system (read solar panels) on the roof of either of these...

    Another tow vehicle question. Thank you in advance

    Yes. I have a Green Diesel Engineering Hot engine tune and their trans tune as well. I have a Suncoast torque converter and an Transo shift kit. The truck has tons of power and Im getting mid 30's MPG on the highway with her too. So you dont think the tongue weight difference will mean much...
