I feel it would. I think your only side effect will be "pooling" of the cover where it sits on the "A" frame. We opted for the 11 gallon LP tanks, so we are tight fit. No room between the jack, LP cover, or bateries Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Our thought process on this was not only complete coverage for a uniform look, but also for UV ray wear on the plastic parts of the tanks, battery covers, and the jack. Plastic is light, but it only has so much life. I have had those jack covers crack after a few years of UV exposure. Sent...

I am curious about that also. The new outlets have USB ports built in. Maybe they are tied to the back of the outlets somehow? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's a thumbs up [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hopefully a year from now we look back on all this as no big deal. After all, we still own one of the first 266. What if they decide not to make anymore? Then our rigs will be like the Holiday House, unique for years to come! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Obviously I feel for you that your dealerships are letting you down. At least we all have a forum to share and learn from each other. I have yet to get any return calls or emails from Heartland, except for one service guy who genuinely cared and even followed up with me to get the dealer...

I have reached out to Heartland people multiple times with the only response being from a service rep who is in the loop about the front panel. My wife agrees with you. When we get back I am going to start making calls and leaving lots of messages until I talk to someone. We love our RV, and are...

Well we knew the last fix was done in a hurry to get us back on the road. We were all aware that the front panel has insufficient support. Going 65 into a 40 mph head wind just made it loose again. They will need to fix Heartlands mistake, so they have to tear it all apart to get a good feel on...

Ok I will let you know. Furious had a post earlier with a recommendation I will go look at. BTW to everyone, the front panel broke loose on our 5 hour trip to Lassen. We are sitting here looking at the roof peeling back again! Already called the dealer. We will have to bandaid her to get her...

I found a new issue this morning. Two areas at the rear on both sides of the rig. The panels are only secured by the sealant, which has already failed. Is anyone using a product that is super good for these areas so we don't have to keep sealing them? I feel like I need to go through and redo...

After my discussion with the dealer yesterday, I was surprised to find out this problem is not as rare as you would think! They said they get a couple of these a year, usually after the unit has flown out in transit! The main issue is the flimsy metal is all that holds the unit in. After this...

The trim is screwed to the microwave.....the trim holds the microwave in the cavity. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We are prepping for our trip to Lassen tonight. My wife looks over at the microwave and see's a crack in the trim. The entire microwave had come loose in the enclosure! Come to find out there is a 1" drop under the microwave and it's hanging free. I did an emergency plywood fill of 1" to make it...

As a contractor, I deal with leaks more often than I want to. The funny thing about water is can travel inches or feet before it comes out. So look at your RV from a birds eye view. Check your deals at the roof line (we had our roof come loose because the front panel was not sealed properly)...

That tile looks great! We bought the stuff to do it then decided to wait until we do the tub conversion. I have a feeling we won't actually get it done until winter. We did our 8th trip this past weekend to Yosemite, and we are going to Lassen next weekend. Although we would like to get it all...

We plan to just use our cover during the summer when UV is the worst. We don't want moisture being held under the cover and getting mold. We are just trying to keep the dust off as much as possible. The rear of the trailer seems to catch dust really well! We finally got our cover on (kind of)...

I know this is a bit off topic, but is regards to your earlier response about what storage is left after the redo......do you have any plans to improve the under bed storage? It is one of my high priority projects for this winter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome to the Terry Family! So we are experimenting with a light weight cover (which we bought 2 months ago and have not put on yet because we are using the rig so much!). It's a Tyvek material we bought off Amazon. I will let you know how it goes. We paid for the poly coat that is...

Re: Wheels So i learned a little bit about our issue today. The lug nuts on this rig are covered with a chrome slip cap. So brand new they are 19(?) mm lug nuts. However, if they are over torqued OR a 12 point socket is used instead of a 6 point socket, then the chrome cap comes off. Now you...

Sorry for the delay in getting back to this.....been crazy busy working! So the dealer took my advise. They removed the inside "headache cushion" and drilled all the way through. They put three machine thread bolts through, and nuts and washers on the inside. Put the cushion back on and all...

Figured we should start pooling the history of our RV for current and future buyers https://www.google.com/amp/s/tincantourists.com/blog/2016/01/21/featured-brand-holiday-house/amp/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So we have an ongoing problem that everyone needs to be aware of. When we picked up our rig from the dealer, the door arm was missing. Come to find out later it was ripped off in a wind burst. The dealer tried to put new screws in, but they ripped off. Then they tried rivets. They ripped off...

Super cute! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Although an upgrade to the Terry speakers is on the ToDo list. [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am sure where in the build your unit was. (I tried to get the info from Heartland but they didn't number the first 266). The four that our dealer got had EXCESSIVE clear silicone (or RTV sealant) under all metal trim around the window. We had goopy silicone streaks on all the glass, which we...

That is so crazy that the first unit built were different like that! A big selling point for us was the three burner with the stove! We have used that appliance on every trip so far. We have the two leg table. We continue to play with ideas of what to do there. We need the ability to convert...

Just a follow up: We got the rig back and took it to Yosemite and back in very windy conditions. Everything held! So onward we continue with our adventures, ever so cautiously watching. The dealer took the entire molding off the top and resealed back behind the front panel. Then they added...

Well we got our rig back today. The dealership has fixed the immediate problem. They removed the top angle piece, re glued the roof back down including around the front, and re secured the angle piece. Then applied new sealer on top and clear sealer between the panel and the angle piece...

I am going to have to dig through emails. Someone emailed me (I thought it was you) after I posted about the loose front panel. They are a Terry owner. Their roof started to "bubble" after their road trip. I never heard back and they never posted on this page. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did they get your roof fixed? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We were planning on doing something similar in the bathroom. I am 6'2" and have the same issue with water in the floor Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well guess what. Sealing the front didn't help. The roof is starting to tear back. Just called the dealer for emergency repairs. See what they say tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We spent Memorial Day Weekend at Ghost Mountain Ranch in Pollock Pines, Ca. Well the RV was a hit! We knew we had something special, but we were totally surprised by how many people came by! It just confirmed to us that we made a great choice that is both unique and suits our lifestyle. And...
