slide out circuit breaker Thank you Bob and everyone else. Heartland is sending me the Lippert 80 amp upgrade at no cost. With all the information from you guys I should be able to swap the old breaker out with the new one in just a few minutes. Just want to thank everyone for your help.

Jim, Did you have that back and forth motion before you switched to the mor-ryde pin box? How does it manage to reduce the forward and backward chucking? Does it use air suspension?

Delaine, I also have the B & W companion hitch. The only problem I am having is a lot of forward and backward movement which makes the ride a little uncomfortable especially on cement roadways with expansion cracks. Is there anything you know of that can make my ride a little smoother by...

We bought our 3670RL 2 years ago. We were invited by the dealer to live in our camper before we signed or payed for anything. We lived in our camper for 2 or 3 days in the parking lot of the dealer putting together a list of problems we noticed. The dealer had an electric and water hookup in...

Les, Where is the 50 amp circuit breaker? Is it the 1 " rocker switch right next to the hydraulic motor? I have a 1" square switch on the hydraulic motor mount that has a rocker switch on it. It has about 6 or 8 wires leading to it. Is this the 50 amp circuit breaker? Thanks, Sid

Bob, Thank you for the information on the circuit breaker upgrade. Just curious. My dealer suggested I should have my thermal switch replaced. It doesn't sound like it's the same upgrade you have brought to my attention. Do you have any feelings as to which is the right way to go? Or are...

Anyone know why the slideouts cutout when bringing them in or out? After waiting a moment, I am able to press the slideout switch again and they work fine. The problem seems to be happening more often now.

Dodge 3500 DRW Our dodge 3500 pulls our 3670RL very well. I added the Superchip software and keep it in towing mode. I also added the Pacbrake exhaust brake which I also strongly recommend. Maybe it's just psychological, but I feel the dual rear wheels give me added stability. We are very...

additional water Thankyou SmokeyBare, Your making a lot of sense. A collapseable bladder can be folded up when not being used and two small bladders are easier to handle than one big drum.

additional water Thanks Jim, From what we have seen, potable water is available most of the time but ferrying back and forth is necessary. We look forward to hearing how other Heartland owners have added water drums or bladders to their truck.

We want to do some beach camping next year which will require bringing additional fresh water. What is the best way to carry an additional 90 gallons of water? I have seen some tow vehicles with a large blue water drum and water pump assembly. Anyone have any web sites to go to? Where in the bed...

new tires We have decided to go with the Firestone Transforce HT. Thank's for your input.

I currently have General AmerTrac 235/80/R17 LT tires on my TV. My tire dealer suggests flipping over to Goodyear Wrangler SRA 245/75/17 LT tires. Should I stay with General or make the change? What do you think?

mistakes I opened our kitchen slide once and almost pulled one of the kitchen cabinet doors off it's hinge. Each time I open or close the slides I especially make sure the recliners aren't sticking out too far so they don't catch the slides. Welcome to the club. Every time something goes...

Satellite hookup I have a short jumper that connects the two satellite connectors in the docking station. The reason being, the kingdome cable goes to one connector in the docking station, and the jumper allows the signal to go to the living area tv. Hope this might help.

We have been using the B&W hitch for close to a year without any problems. The company has been very nice and responsive. We have experienced chucking on occasion when on concrete roadways with expansion joints but from what I read on the forum this is quite common no matter what hitch you...

Drive thru I don't know about that. Took my dually through the Burger King drive thru last week. I was more worried about the roof than the sidewalls. Worked out fine. Got my grilled chicken sandwich without a hitch.:)

tv's Just like everyone has said, any of the big three will do a great job and it's a matter of personal preference as to which one you like. Just in case your interested we love our Dodge dually.

converter problem

satellite in bedroom area We have the Kingdome. It works great. If your RV is like ours you just need to place a cable splitter in the cabinet next to the TV in the living area. Theres a cable connection on the inside wall of the cabinet that will send the signal from the spliter to the TV...

all you need is a small 30 amp to 15 amp $5 adapter that fits between your 30 amp power chord and any house outlet. You can get one at any RV store.

we also bought a 2008 3670 and love it. It had small issues but nothing like what this person had.

Like yourselves we had a 21 ft trail cruiser before our BigHorn. We would never go back to the trail cruiser but sometimes I miss how trouble free our trail cruiser was. It took good care of us and had simple systems. No PDI, no leaking water connections, no dvd or converter problems, no...

diesel prices I read in the paper today that diesel hit $5.00 a gallon here on Long Island.

Sorry for low clearances try using www.aitaonline.com and type in low clearance in the search box.

Thank you. I have the low clearance web site and I'll give truckmiles.com a try.

2nd A/C I agree with everyone else. If you can afford the extra dollars it's better to have it just in case you need it. We have not had to use both a/c units at the same time very much but I'm glad we have it to cool things down when we first turn them on. Also I find the bedroom a/c a...

Looking for a website like Mapquest that can be used for trucks and campers. Mapquest is more for cars.

Truck Driving Directions Does anyone have a web site like MapQuest that is good for trucks and trailers? Mapquest is more for cars. It doesn't recognize parkway restrictions.

We like to use our camper in the winter. We are very happy with the dual pane windows. We can't imagine how cold and drafty it would be withput them given the amount of windows we have. We have not experienced a big condensation problem. We like to run a vaporizer to keep the air moist and...

Securing glasses and dishes while traveling? Interested in hearing everyones idea on how to secure dishes, glasses, and mugs while underway.

propane usage Glendalee, We have been using our 3570 RL all winter under the same weather conditions. It looks like we go through around 1/2 tank of propane each 24 hour period. We keep the camper between 67 and 70 degrees to prevent freezing down below. I also have a portable heater with...

We have replaced the tires on our 3670 RL with Goodyear tires. The Goldway tires have 900 miles on them which represents the delivery mileage from the dealer. Best offer. Buyer will pick up or pay for delivery charges.

acquiring signal, We had the same problem this weekend. We were in the pennsyvania Pocono's and the temperature went down to zero. I decided not to take a chance so I winterized the camper Saturday afternoon. It cleared up after adding antifreeze to the system.

doggie campers I'm sure everyone will agree that man's best friend loves to camp. All that walking around the CG, meeting all those nice people who stop and give attention. Hanging out on the couch or on one of the recliners taking a short snooze. Well you know. Just like us. Just say...

kingdome and satelite TV We purchased the kingdome dish for our Bighorn. After 3 months I finally got around to switching over to direct tv from cablevision. I got a special deal from Direct TV that gave me a high definition dish for my house, 4 satelite receivers, house installation, and a...

Dodge Ram 3500 Flash, As you can see by our signature we own a Dodge 3500. I recommend the long bed for tracking and the dually for stability. Not that you couldn't get away with a short bed single rear wheel. They would probably work just fine.

The side wall on my tires recommends max load cold 80 psi. What tire pressure are you using when both towing and not towing your rv?

Aquiring signal, We have just about the same rig and havn't had a problem. We have our 2008 3670 parked in the Pocono's where the temp has been going down to 18 and 19 degrees. I just keep the temperature at 65 degrees and have a portable heater down below behind the basement partition wall...

Cold outside but nice and toasty inside by the fireplace We just got back from the long weekend in the PA. Pocono's. Our Bighorn was great. The dual pane glass windows and fireplace confirmed that we made the right decisions. We used onboard water the whole weekend. Just kept the thermostat...
