    Tire Pressure Monitors

    Is there much difference between the TST 507RV and the TST 510RV? They are pretty much the same price and the same options.

    Garage Happi-Jak Lower Bunk/Bench Seat Support

    Our 2015 3010 was the same way. Called H.L. and they sent the correct legs directly to me. Simple to swap out.

    Bathroom Sink Faucet

    Finally found a faucet that brings the water out to the center of the sink. Much better, you can actually wash your whole hands now instead of your fingertips. Wound up getting it from Home Depot.

    What does everyone do at night for privacy on the exterior doors?

    I would love, LOVE to have the old door with a screen door rather than the larger window that opens. Can't get the same amount of air flow as the screen door would have provided. That was my first response when I saw the trailer. What? No Screen Door? Sales person glossed it over, saying that...

    What does everyone do at night for privacy on the exterior doors?

    No, it is mirrored on the outside. But at night, with lights on inside and dark outside. It is almost reverse, very hard to see out. But very easy to see in. Example: If you have a glass storm door on you home. Turn off all your outside lights. Then, turn on your room lights. Back up away from...

    What does everyone do at night for privacy on the exterior doors?

    Sorry for the slow reply, busy day and no access to internet. Yes, that is exactly the doors. No screen door anymore. But the windows do open in the door. Bottom half slides up. As you can see, no pun intended. Just walk up and look in. From the inside, you would never know they are there...

    What does everyone do at night for privacy on the exterior doors?

    On our 2015 Cyclone 3010, the front doors have the mirrored privacy glass that works well during the day. However, at night, lights on inside and dark outside. It is there for the viewing. Curious what others have done to resolve this. I have several thoughts how to resolve it, including...

    Bathroom Sink Faucet

    I think the hardest part about switching out the faucet was deciding which way to lay on the floor in the bathroom to access the plumbing. Of coarse, the first way, using my left hand to reach into the left door got me access to the hot water line, but not the cold one. Flip over, @ 6'1", not an...

    Maiden Voyage for CY3418

    I don't know what the secret is to getting the vent-a-hood door open easily. I finally pushed up on both tabs and it released, as well as my hands into the cover. OUCH!. Have not tried to latch it back since. Hopefully, you on't have any battle scars from it as I have. LOL.

    Bathroom Sink Faucet

    Thanks for the replies. Sounds like an easy fix. Will probably pick up one from Lowes or HD this week and make that happen over the weekend.

    Bathroom Sink Faucet

    About decided I am going to replace the bathroom sink faucet. As it is, you can't even get your hands under the water stream as it dispenses about 1 inch from the back of the sink. Haven't looked under the sink yet to see how easy it will be to access the faucet connections. Anyone have...

    2015 CY3010 Electric Recliner

    I did, seems that there is a power convertor that sits inline. The electric cord from the wall to the converter came unplugged from it. All that needed to be done was for it to be plugged back in. Getting to it is a different story.

    Heartland Cyclone 3418

    We bought our 2015 CY3010 there. We looked at several different ones. Salesman was really listening to us as we said we liked this and didn't like that on each of the models. Then he told us to hang on a second while he got a golf cart. He had one he wanted to show us. We pulled up and started...

    Cyclone 3010 Radio

    Over the weekend, I turned the radio in the Garage on for the first time. Holy Cow, I need an electrical degree just to set it up. Anyway, Sounded ok in the garage and outside, better speakers would certainly help. But when I went into the living area. No sound. Out comes the book and as I am...

    Average Length of Time an RV is in for repair at a Dealership?

    Picked up the RV on Friday afternoon from the dealer. New front and rear Door seals, bottom of the bedroom slide out got the seal replaced. The "electric" recliner is working (seams there is a transformer box that the cord from the outlet plugs into. This had worked out and was "unplugged")...

    The Towmax Gremlin strikes again!

    After reading story after story of TowMax tire failures. I decided it was better to bite the bullet and spend some money upfront instead of on insurance deductible. I couldn't afford to go all the way for top of the line. But $800 for 5 tires is still an expense. Hopefully, 14 ply Carlisle tires...

    2011 Cyclone 3800 Mods to Transition to Full Timing

    That's exactly what I want to do to my stairs as well. But, my other half keeps telling me to leave it alone. Kills me knowing I can gain some storage space for shoes, flip flops, etc. and she keeps putting the brakes on. Guess I will jus t wait. Nice job on the stairs as well as the rest of the...

    Losing my Prospective Owner Status

    We have a "Private" campground that we are members of. So for, $85 / month and annual membership dues. We have a lot that we can build pretty much anything I need for my 5er. I attached a few photos of where we store ours. Some the photos show my old TH in it. I figure it is well worth the...

    Damaged Camper and Landing Gear-- Repaired--

    Re: Damaged Camper and Landing Gear This tells me to check my 5er with a fine tooth comb when I get it back from the dealership. I will run everything up and down as well as out and in, open every door and do a visual before I accept it back. Sorry your going through this, but good lesson for...

    Losing my Prospective Owner Status

    Congrats on taking the plunge. Interesting, the legs were short on mine as well. I finally got them in from Heartland and installed both. That created a whole new problem. When the new legs contacted the floor. The seats kept going a little further to stop, causing the chairs to bow up in the...

    ATF: Cyclone - Question for Heartland....

    Trying to figure out if you're saying they will buy the take offs or not. I am about to replace the tires on mine. They probably have less than 500 miles on them. Please clarify?

    Average Length of Time an RV is in for repair at a Dealership?

    When you open the slam door over the UDC and storage area on Drivers side. Look at the back of the door. you should see it there. At least that is where it is on my door. I wish I had taken a picture of it then. I will as soon as I get my 5er back.

    Interesting turn of events. Service Tech called yesterday asking if my sat dish was in the 5er. He wanted to hook it up to see why I was unable to get it to work. Delivered it this morning, tech came out and we discussed some of the repairs he had already done, as well as what I had tried when...

    Average Length of Time an RV is in for repair at a Dealership?

    Well! I took the 5ver in for its first warranty work today. Walked in and a sign above the counter said "RV's dropped the week of Jan 20 will be ready the week of March 26". I asked the service writer if that was correct, he said it depended on if parts need to be ordered or other circumstances...

    Level Up Sytem - Question

    Looking at the mounts and exposed holes. Rear show 4 exposed holes from the bottom and center show 5 exposed holes from the bottom. To me, that looks like the center mounts are one hole higher up than the rear mounts. I think Pothole has the right idea. On Level ground, set level with a 6 ft...

    Level Up Sytem - Question

    OK, I was playing with my CY3010 level up system today and I pushed everything to full extend. I can see the tires came off the ground. When I walk to the back, I also see that the rear jacks are a full inch off the ground and the trailer is being supported by the center jacks and front jacks. I...

    CY3010 - Garage Table, you sit in the dark

    When the beds are setup for dining table in the garage. You sit in the dark, well, in the shadows. I tried some the tap lights stuck to the bottom of the upper bunk. But they were not bright enough. Any suggestions? Would like to hear what others have done to remedy the problem. Sorry about the...

    ATF: Cyclone - '13 Cyclone 3010 Puck Light Control - Kitchen?

    It is similar to the white rockers you showed. But not as big. Halfway between the small switch in the MCP and the large rocker by the slide out.

    ATF: Cyclone - '13 Cyclone 3010 Puck Light Control - Kitchen?

    No Sir, that switch actually is for the LED lights in my awning. Below the MCP, all by itself, is another switch. That one does the kitchen lights on our rig.

    ATF: Cyclone - '13 Cyclone 3010 Puck Light Control - Kitchen?

    On our 2015 CY3010, the switch for the lights you have pictured are under my main panel control. You see the one for the ceiling light on the panel and then, just below the panel, is another switch that turns those lights on. You cant see the switch in this picture.

    Has anyone added "Cheap Heat" to Propane Central Heat

    If you are in an RV park for short term camping. I would much rather use their electricity than my propane. But, I really don't want to carry 2 tanks to be filled and then try to **** ant them back and host them back into their respective locations any more than I have too. Thats more of the...

    Has anyone added "Cheap Heat" to Propane Central Heat

    Looking at adding the "Cheap Heat' add-on to my Central heating system on my CY3010. Not for economic reasons, but for convenience of running my system when it drops below freezing. Getting tired of blowing the lines 2 to 3 times a month when we go out to it. Just curious if it is worth the effort?

    12 Foot garage not 12'! Polaris RZR XP 4 1000 will not fit!

    Does it effect your ride any? Extra weight at the back of the RV equals lighter pin weight as well. I am assuming that it bolts to where the ramp locks were? Pretty interesting add-on, give you an A+ for ingenuity. Looks really good.

    2015 CY3010 Microwave/Vent-a-hood

    On our 3010, when you ran the vent-a-hood, you would get a lot of air coming around the end of the microwave (yes, the exterior vent door was unlocked). Enough that your hair would blow. Over the weekend, I pulled the assembly down and, just what I suspected. Not anything between the vent on the...

Seeing we live west of Fort Worth, they told us we could use the one if Fort Worth for any warranty repairs. So far, HL Customer Service...

    Average Length of Time an RV is in for repair at a Dealership?

    As I have not taken my CY3010 in yet for any warranty work. I was curious what length of times others experience when retuning their rigs for warranty repairs? I know there are horror stories and some have sat for months. But in general, how long should I have to wait to get mine back?

    2015 CY3010 Electric Recliner
