Well, you wondered and now you know. I think it was about a 50-50 split. I switched to "G" rated and stayed with the ST and no more blowouts. So far anyway.

Thanks for the tip. We do have two outlets in the bedroom so we'll try that as soon as we get it back on the road in a couple weeks.

On our 2013 Bighorn, we have no cable or antenna reception in the bedroom. The living room works fine. We do have the Winegard Satellite dish installed on the roof, which was done by the dealer, and receive satellite on both TV's. We made sure the power booster was on and the TV tuned to...

The key to getting your Level-up system fixed and working properly is to get it to Lippert. I went through three service facilities and six weeks in the shop and the system still would not level in the auto function. Most of the system was replaced to no avail. While at the National Rally this...

The service tech at my dealer used the level-up system to change all four of my tires. I will use it for a tire change should the need arise. The warning from Lippert is to cover them from a legal standpoint. It's like any jack you would use to raise your car or trailer. Always use a jack stand...

Hey Guys: John and Deb here. Enjoyed seeing you at the rally. We are still making our way home also. We are currently in the Black Hills area. We were supposed to get on the road tomorrow, but we decided to hang around for another three days. Man, this retirement thing is tough, tough on the...

Sounds like you had a safe trip from Indiana. Enjoyed meeting you folks at the Terre Haute KOA. Guess you took the heat with you, but you forgot the rain. We had plenty of that today. Safe travels home. John & Deb

I've heard that Keystone was purchased by Thor, the parent company of Heartland. Can anyone validate this?

Not sure where you will be parked, but I pulled out Tuesday morning from the IF area for a Lippert appointment and returned around 4pm with no problems. Be advised Lippert is very busy and parking is almost non-existent.

I called the fairgrounds and they are allowing me to come in two days early on the 9th. I'm in IF511.

Re: Route to Goshen We are leaving CA. for Goshen in a couple days via Rt. I-80. I've been watching the weather in the mid west; Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa etc. and am a little concerned. Just wanted to see if anyone has experienced the storms and could provide some info.

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - Vendor Specials Posted! TOM: Sign me up for Monday 17th and could probably fit Wed in also. Thanks

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - Vendor Specials Posted! John Kramer jdfishing IF511 jdfishing@comcast.net 707-208-4452 Arriving on June 9th. Have to break camp and pull the Bighorn to Lippert on the 11th, so lets please try to avoid that day. There are 22 golf courses within 18 miles of Goshen...

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - Vendor Specials Posted! Anyone have any knowledge/recommendations on golf courses in the Goshen area? This is my first time at a national rally, so I am all eyes and ears. I think Big Al from Idaho, can't remember user name, was interested in putting something golf...

Re: Goshen Rally - Vendor Specials for Rally Attendees > Under-Chassis Storage Boxes I seriously considering having the Mor/ryde Rubber Pinbox installed at the rally, but I know nothing about it other than what I've read. Will it reduce the "chucking"? Should I consider other options?

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - Vendor Specials Posted! Only one or two? Is there any type of organized golf outing planned? Count me in.

Most of the rattle in the bike racks comes from loose tolerances in the receiver. Try an "anti-wiggle" threaded locking hitch pin. Solid as a rock on 2" receivers.

A word of caution on selecting a bike rack. Not all are designed or recommended for use on the rear of trailers. I had a rack on which the bikes are suspended by their cross member. As long as I used a gazillion bungies, it worked for awhile. Then on my last trip, California's great roadways...

I use a 12v transfer pump attached to a 40 gallon bladder in the bed of my truck. I power it with a cigarette lighter adapter. And yes, turn the valve to take fill.

I had the same symptoms on my Suburban furnace as you are describing. Turns out it was something called a "fan relay switch" located on the back of the furnace. The tech did a couple simple checks and found the problem quickly. After you've ruled out the obvious, you may want to let a service...

Champion's customer service is great. I accidentially broke a part on mine right after I got it and Champion sent a replacement, even though I told them what had happened.

Rumaco: You still gonna be there in August?

I ran into a problem last year when trying to use my Access Pass in California at a Forest Service campground. Called Recreation.gov to make the reservation and they would not allow the 50% discount because the site had 30amp service. I explained the Forest Service policy, which states, "if the...

Re: ATF: Bighorn - Help finding light switch Yup, check your remote if you have one.

Re: No response from Heartland Trace: Based on my own personal experience with Camping World, that's how they do business. Give you the run-around and pass the buck.

Thanks Jim. That gets me going in the right direction.

Does anyone know if Lippert is going to be at the Rally? I'm having more issues with my Level-up system and I'm frustrated with people working on it that don't have a clue what they are doing. Also, if we are in need of warranty work that may not fall under the guidelines of "minor", is there...

Hi Ange: All of the complaints you speak about with regard to the "recliner chairs" are the same as I am experiencing; Hard to raise footrest, won't stay reclined, etc. I have pretty much learned to live with it, but I don't suffer from a bad back and have the strength and weight to force it to...

If you're interested in traveling up the Oregon way, I've heard a lot of good things about www.amsolar.com.

I think people have to understand you'll never satisfy 100% of the needs 100% of the time, so shoot for a broad overview of how a convection works, how it is different and some real life experiences. Then throw in some recipies from the experienced Heartland folks. Since there are a number of...

I know two gals that would love to sign up for a seminar on the use of a Convection.

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - General Discussion Thread Thanks Jim for checking on mail delivery. That helps a lot.

I have developed a reputation among those who know me and I have earned every bit of it. But, I'll gladly pass it along.

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - General Discussion Thread Are there any accommodations for mail delivery at the camping venue? If not, any suggestions on the best way to receive mail while in the Goshen area? General Delivery?

Hi Trace: This southwest trip has proved to be quite the adventure. I have become much more familiar with the Bighorn since seeing you in Quartzsite. We moved to Parker, AZ and were looking forward to full hookups so we could clean those tanks out after two weeks in the desert. Well, I now know...

Finally, after a total two months in the shop, the level-up system works as advertised. It is really slick. Not sure who to blame for the delay in finding and fixing the problem, Camping World or Lippert, but they ended up replacing the Keypad, Rear Sensor and finally the Brain. I do appreciate...

Re: 2013 Goshen Rally - General Discussion Thread Do we request a specific site when registering or is the site assigned? If it is assigned, can we request to be placed next to someone? Just to clarify, does the registration process include the pre-rally also?

Had the same problem on my 2007. I had a broken tooth in the gear box. Had it repaired and the problem continued. I believe there is some sort of clutch which allows for some slippage. Eventually added a second motor so each leg had its own motor. That solved all the problems. There is no way to...

We decided to take the 5 month old Bighorn to Quartzsite, Az. for the big RV show and camp with some friends in the desert. We just got it out of the shop, where it sat for a month while trying to diagnose and fix the Lippert Level Up System. The 3010 model is always a big hit and we gave tours...

Thanks Trace and Terry for the invite to the campout. Enjoyed seeing some old aquaintances and making some new ones. The food was excellent and plentiful as usual.
