Do any of you fulltimers use a Mail Forwarding Service? Or does anyone have and suggetions :confused:. Thank you Tankie

TXBobcat, I bought a thermometer w/sensor on 12ft cord and put it under kitchen sink down along the water lines to monitor underbelly temp. Verdict is evry time I turned off furnace temp. dropped, so I have to leave it on just have to eat the propane until temps climb. I plan on putting heat...

Luckyhat12, are you installing holding tank pads? I am going to start putting insulation in, but the gray tanks are tight against the underbelly cover which provides no room for any insulation. Also I am considering low voltage heat tape for water lines or just rapping with insulation. I want to...

We have been below freezing since last saturday the lows are around 0 and the highs are in the mid to low teens, but today was a balmy 21! We use our water but must use heat tape and the furnace needs to be on all the time to keep the under belly warm. I put a thermometer in the docking bay at...

rickbsgu, Did you have to adjust the the speedometer with the bigger rims and tires?

We are here working so we will not be moving until Feb. or March. we emptied or fresh water tank because we went home for holiday just left the heat on and did not have a problem. We do not usally travel with heat on but have not moved in freezing temps. We left it on one time and it was fine. I...

We are camping in our 3670 this winter and temps have already dipped to 19. We have our water line wrapped in heat tape covered with foam pipe insulation. We also keep the furnace around 70 at nite to make sure the basement and water lines stay warm. When temps stay below 32 we use the furnace...

Jim, our leak happened where the line goes between the furnace and hot water heater...

goldenbetty, we had a hole in that same line ours was in the basement by hot water heater. If you open up that panel in the basement there is a shut off for that line.

Hello, we are wintering in Moses Lake, WA. for work reasons. We wrapped heat tape on our water line and put foam pipe insulation on. We had to buy a new water hose that would handle the heat tape but that was only about $12. We rented a 120lb propane tank so I would not have to fill our tanks...

wyleyrabbit, I towed a hitchhiker to northern calif. down I-5 from WA. and then bought a BH in calif. and just made the return trip back to WA. The trip home was much smoother plus the BH tracked better. The HH started to sway at 60 mph, I do not have the swaying problem with BH. I have towed...

jmgratz, where did you have this done?

Forrest, Thanks for the info and photos I did a little looking around back there not much on electricity so I finally got to Dealer and now have a cracked cooling unit which is leaking which is on order. Thanks again, Tankie

Hello, we have a dometic RM1350 in our 2009 3670RL, fridge would not stay cold. I checked it out and the 2 little fans in back where not working so I put a 7 in. elec. fan in back to move air tell I could get to a dealer that would do warranty work. The fan was working great even had to turn...

geeksrus, what is your unit doing? We have that same model in our 09 3670RL and it has some problems it shuts down and when used in convection mode it sparks like its in microwave mode. Thanks

We have a 12 cu ft side by side in our 09 Bighorn and the fridge would not cool down stayed in the 50's. Found out the 2 little fans in back stopped working and the heat would build up and it could not cool it self. The frezzer was fine, nearest dealer is 175 miles away so I went and bought a 7"...

Uncle Rog, was your 3600RL preped for second A/C? We elected for the fan and was wondering if a 2nd a/c could be installed? We have very little airflow and the thing runs all nite and it is cooler outside! Thanks

Jason, We have a 09 bighorn that does the same thing. I turn off the gas switch for 5 min. and it starts. I am not sure what the problem is, I plan on contacting a dealer. I am interested in hearing from others. Thanks

I think camping wanted to sell me a roof mount setup. Did you do a rv agreement? Direct told me I needed to get the dish and they had the recivers. I will have to call them back and get more info. Thanks for all the info!

bsummit, do you have a single or triple LNB? I talked to camping world in Denver and he says the triple LNB is hard to setup.

busted and bsummit, thanks for all the feed back, looks like Direct gets another customer! Did you guys have to sign a contract? We are full timers and some parks have cable and some don't would like the option of suspending my service but not sure how that works. I am going to call Direct...

busted2341, Thanks for the info. I have called dish at least 5 times and they seem to know less than I do. Do you have your dish set up on a tripod?

bsummit, did u have trouble getting a signal with dish? We just moved from CA. to CO. and I cant get a darn thing have called dish 3 times and they want to sent out a retail guy. I am not very happy! think I am going buy out of contract and get direct tv

babyhorsie, We got the call from dealer on Monday our unit arrived! We picked it up Friday! this will be our second nite in it we love it!!! I think it would of been here in a week but the 4th was Friday so the dealer was closed. But all went well only had had one real issue the dinette table...

babyhorsie, congrats on your new 5th! we ordered our 3670RL last week of May, they also said 2 weeks. Talked to dealer Thursday and they said it just came off production line Wed.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! should take a week to get to CA. wooo hooo!!!!!!!!!!! So they were close, they said when we ordered...

We ordered a 09 3670RL due to arrive in a week, 2nd ac was a option. If you get the fantasic fan you can not have the 2nd ac, one or the other. If you are looking at a lot model keep that in mind if you want 2nd ac.

TXBobcat, we have one receiver that has dual mode w/two seperate remote on Dish that allows us to watch 2 seperate programs works great that only needs one cable, otherwise I think you need a seperate cable for each receiver but a call to Directv will answer that for you

Good point pmmjarrett, slow and easy down the we go

bsummit, thanks for the info. we are now in a 35ft HItchhiker all wood construction listed hitch wt is 2240 has after market gen. so a little more (plus all wife's clothes ha ha)!

Pulltab, the base weight is 4397 front and 2682 rear total 7079. So I am carrying 781 lbs, wow not as much as I thought! plus granddaughter is not with us all the time. I think you are right about them going conservative, the info I got off dodges web site states that all payload and max trailer...

Weight my truck today at a CAT scale w/ me ,wife, grandkid,full tank of liquid gold, tool box full. Front 4660 Rear 3200 total 7860. Can tow trailer of 12140 lbs, so u need a 1 ton to tow just about anything big enough to live in. Still the numbers these companys are putting out make no sense...

So do drw have more braking capacity? I understand that they have more payload because of the drw but I don't get the more braking issue. I have a 2007 Dodge 2500HD GVW rating 9000 lbs GCVW 20000 LBS according to Dodge. According to Trailer Life 2008 Tow Rating Guide max trailer weight is 12800...

Please correct me if I am wrong, Dual rear wheels still only have one set of brake shoes per side not two? Lonnie

Ordered a 3670RL 4 weeks ago will have to call dealer and see if it is to late to have disc brakes put on. If to late will have to see if I can find a shop to replace them. thanks Don for your info. Lonnie

Drum brakes are a pain! I know that NU-WA has them as an option on their units I wish Heartland offered them. Does anyone know if you can replace them with disc?

Jeff, who put your carrier heat up on and if you don't mind how much did it cost? We have ordered a 3670RL are fulltiming and not real crazy about the furnace. Thanks Lonnie

Hi, We are Lonnie & Trudi and we ordered our new BH 3670RL 2 weeks ago so the wait has begun! We are fulltimers currently in a HH Discovery. Considering a roof mounted satellite and was wondering if anyone has had any issues with trees blocking reception? thanks Lonnie
