    Gateway vs. Montana High Country

    My advice would be to visit the Montana web site and ask about the Montana High Country there. Plenty of folks here to answer your questions about the Gateway.

    Re: EVENT: Heartland Regional Rally: IA, Amana - 9/27/2014 to 10/5/2014 I wanted to see if you'd catch it. By the way they also serve chicken, salads, deserts and good ice cream.

    Clips for MCD Shades

    I installed my own MCD shades on my BH. It is a pretty job. Just make sure that all the clips are perfectly in line with each other. If not, the shade won't snap in very easy or not at all.

    EVENT: Heartland Regional Rally: IA, Amana - 10/3/2014 to 10/5/2014

    I have no problem with SOB's coming to our rallies. The thing that aggravates the holly molly out of me is when the same ones come over and over. If you want to hang out at our rallies so bad that you come over and over, then by a Heartland. And that's my opinion.

    Will my furnace run on 15 amp land line?

    Most likely you're plugged into a 20 A receptacle at your sons house. While I have run the AC at my house before, I did run into a problem at my cousins house a few years ago on a SOB. He had very low voltage at his house and me using an extension cord that was too long(and I know better), I did...

    My Ladder Broke!

    Jim.Allison I love my "useless decoration" and use it all the time as I did on my previous four fivers. While I agree that the ladders in the RV industry need to be improved to call them useless decoration is ludicrous.

    When we ordered our 2014 BH we asked the factory to install it with the opening towards the steps. I was under the impression that all of them are installed that way now.

    ADCO RV Covers

    After covering my last rig(a BC) for one season my dealer could tell that I had covered it. When the cover flops around in the wind, it can cause chafing. I no longer will cover any of my rigs. And don't think you can get the cover tight enough not to cause problems.

    Cover 5th wheel for Winter?

    I had a cover on my brand new BC. After I removed the cover my dealer looked at it and asked if I had it covered for the winter. He could see the damage the cover had caused. Oh by the way I have a cover for sale.

    Prodigy brake controller issue

    Bobby A you ask if these things go bad. Personally I can't think of any electronic equipment that couldn't go bad. Instead of finding someone that has a meter, go and buy one. They are very inexpensive and no RV'er should be without a multimeter.

    Refinishing Countertops

    Don't waste your time and effort using sandpaper if you just have rub marks. Use the Meguiar’s #50 as shown in post#3 and a buffer/polisher. If that doesn't take it out, you can always go the sandpaper route.

    Any reviews new Flex Air pin box?

    I tried to put money down on one of these. Luckily he would not accept my money. Found out later that it is a piece of chunk. Like Jay says ask Dave he had all kinds of problems with it. I know a guy that pulled a Mobile Suite with it. All cells collapsed on him. I saw it. I suppose there is...

    Don't know if Heartland uses this model in any of our rigs, but a friend of mine has one in his Jayco (I know, I tried). His door just fell off. A friend of his has the same refrigerator and his door fell off too. Just a heads up.

    Does it ever stop? Another problem

    I would be tempted to put a plate between the plug and the fiberglass. Make a large hole in the center to accommodate the plug and a hole in each corner. If you can't get the wires through, you could make it a two piece plate. Make it a little larger so the screws will go into something solid...
