    Bighorn dealers seem to be far and few between

    Your right the Bighorn dealers seem to be far and few as noted. We ended up buying ours at Rv Wholesalers which is only about 35 miles from us. I was initially skeptical but have to say I had a great experience with them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    2018 Bighorn traveler mattress

    We also have a Denver Mattress and really like it. The Denver mattress sleeps very well, it is slightly firmer than the TempurPedic we have at home. I actually prefer the Denver over the TempurPedic. My experience with RV mattress’s is that they have all been pretty poor quality. We just...

    Heartland Overhauls Bighorn Fiver Lineup

    I prefer carpet over vinyl flooring. I think they intentionally use/used such a crappy grade of carpet to “force” customers to vinyl. Hopefully the overhaul will put some quality back into the Bighorn which I believe has been diminished over the past couple model years. Sent from my iPad...

    Accumulator installation

    Lyle, how large (capacity wise) is your accumulator? I have been thinking about doing this but the ones I have looked have relatively low holding capacity. Just wondering if they would still be effective? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Can't get hitch off the ball!

    When lifting the coupler latch are you also pushing it forward toward the truck? Some latches once raised have to move forward . I have had some stick to where I had to tap forward with a hammer while raising the latch.

    Can't get hitch off the ball!

    Do you have a good solid base under your front tongue jack? Are you able to raise it high enough? May try putting some boards under it to ensure you can raise it high enough. Just a thought. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
