I had a friend that worked delivering FEMA trailers. He said they all carried 12 ton bottle jacks. So I got one too. And a tire iron. Tony

Hey All, We are at the Fall Rally in Spring Texas. And a few members have asked about our stained glass window. Here is the link from where we found ours. They have great service and a really nice product. http://www.rvstainedglass.com/ Tony

Jay Please add Tony and Brenda Stewart to the list, we will be there

Is there anyway to circumvent this known "hole"? Unfortunately we must think like thieves in order to prevent them from breaking in. Tony

Happy Campers I went to Camping World in Katy and met with Joe French and Kevin today. They took prompt care of the issues we had with a prior service issue. They have really turned the service deptartment around. It is not like it used to be. I would recommend them as an excellent service...

Just a note to let everyone know that Joe French PM'ed me and invited me to bring the camper in to look at it again. He is trying to correct the problems that the service dept had in the past. Thanks Tony

JFrench If you are really interested in bridging the gap of some of my bad experiances with Camping World in Katy, I would be willing to let you repair some of the warranty work that was done. The fan motor for the heater was making a loud noise. They found that the blade housing was rubbing...

It is obvious that Camping World has had a change in the Service Dept. We bought an 06 Bighorn and warranty work was a nightmare. The camper sat there for months without getting the work done. After a long period I would call and ask about it, they would say "Oh Yeah it has been done" Then I...

We leave our RV plugged into shore power 24/7 at the house, and the refrigerator is always on. And we leave alot of common things in the frig, ketchup and mayo. This is only my second RV, but this encourages us to camp more. It is almost ready to go, 15-20 minutes to load a few things from the...

I didn't get the tool for the rear jacks, Lippert sent me one, free of charge. But I was told that the tool for the hydraulic pump was not included. So I found a bit to fit my cordless drill.

Jay I am sorry to say that Brenda and I wont be able to make it this time. Some friends are getting married in Lousiana. But the good news is, we met some Big Country owners last week at a campground and they had never heard about the Heartland owners forum or the rally, but now that they...

I have a boat trailer that binds up, if the trailer is pushing the truck it binds. So I have to pull forward a little to allow it to latch. I would give that a try, but carefully. Tony

The TV in my living room came with two sets of straps with clips on it that criss cross. The chairs in the living room came with the same type of straps. So I took two sets and mounted them on the bedroom TV. And strap it down criss crossed also. I have never strapped the chairs in.

This looks great. Would users manuals be part of this site? I have some Lippert and Winegard manuals, that were downloaded from their sites. If you are interested I will forward a copy on. Tony

We built a metal building for our camper. It is 20x 45'. I ran 30 amp service and water inside. I put two concrete slabs where the tires sit, the rest of the floor is crushed concrete. The door is 14 x 14. I decided on 45' because we dont think that we will ever need a fifth wheel longer than...
