Which specific product do you use? I'm always afraid with all the stuff that contain petroleum distilates and other junk that are bad for the decals and plastic and rubber parts. Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks for the replies on the countertop. Still would like to know for sure if it's in the 2010 models though and the brochure is just wrong. Too bad my local dealer has been closed the last 2 days. It's too bad the 3490 has been discontinued. That was our first choice outside of the 3550TSL...

We looked at a 3250TS yesterday. The unit we saw had a nice size countertop to the right of the stovetop that isn't shown in the brochure. I'd like to know which is accurate and if we were looking at an older model? I would not want to order one and find out they took away the countertop. There...

Haha. We got like an inch...maybe inch and a half. They closed the schools for TWO days.:rolleyes: You would think the world was ending. Although every idiot in the world got out and drove around in it...just for the heck of it.

Mine weighs 7100 with a full load of fuel (26 gal) and me (and a 300lb hitch). You have got a lot of stuff.:eek: More than my family of packrats. I never weighed mine alone with all of us, but my guesstimate would be around 7700 lbs with 4 of us. But I have nothing extra on it. Twice as much...

I'm not really sure what your question is, but it looks like you're a bit overweight. Here's what I found for your truck. GVWR = 9200 lbs RGAWR = 6084 lbs GCWR = 16000 lbs That's 842 lbs over the trucks GVWR. But your numbers on the truck seem high. 7984 lbs alone? That is one heavy 2500HD...

Hmm, I missed the Hampton show last year. I forget what happened. But it's too close to pass up for me, even if it is a small show. I was at the Richmond show a few weeks ago and that's where I saw the Heartland stuff. Unfortunately the dealer who had it there...nevermind, I won't go there on...

Anyone from here going next weekend? I'm close to making up my mind and I'll be there probably Saturday all day for one last looksy to make sure I haven't lost my mind yet.;)

Very nice job. One of the nicer mods I've seen in a long time. I personally wouldn't have the black and fresh interconnected no matter how many checks, but that's just me. I've have my black flush air gap check valve thingy fail just recently. But the rest is too awesome. :)

Well, the truck thing is making it more of an issue. I really like the floorplan of the BC3550TSL as it can be used for more than just a bunkroom. But it's to big for the the truck by far. Yeah, I know, there's people pulling Landmarks with my truck. But I won't. I was under the understanding...

Not teenagers today. I did too. We used to pitch a tent in the back yard just for the **** of it and sleep out there. No more. Things have changed. Kids never go outside anymore. If they don't have their tv, video games, A/C, cell phone, etc. the end of the world is near. On the other hand, it...

That works great. My kids are spoiled and have never heard of a tent. And they are both tall. I'm going to have to add a dinette to whatever and it's going to be a fight as to who gets stuck sleeping on it because they are roughly only 5-1/2' wide. But I'm more thinking one of my kids and a...

Teenagers. One no longer comes along and the other isn't that much farther behind. But I still want a floorplan where I can accommodate 4 people when needed. That is the tricky part, and why I've been looking so long. Oh, and I'm not buying a new truck right now either. So that narrows things...

Heh...looking at your sig now you're going to need a bunkhouse. I've got one in perfect condition. I'm going the opposite direction. No longer need a bunkhouse.:D Congratulations btw!

Thanks for all the great comments. I really appreciate it. Too bad you don't hear so much good about most dealers. Going there Saturday to look again.

This thread has been very enlightening. One of the units I'm looking at is a 3055. So now I can be even more overweight than I already am.:eek: But I'm glad to see (not) that I won't be alone. I always wondered how many people knew how overweight they were. Just watching rigs go by me down the...

Actually all the extra weight isn't from the pin. There were three more people in the truck also, along with all their "stuff". I guesstimate approx. 200 lbs per person including their "stuff", other than myself. So take 600 lbs off that pin weight figure

Thanks. I know it's not the perfect scenario for getting all the weights, what bothers me the most is the small amount I have available for pin weight. I figure approx. 200lbs per person for themselves and their "stuff" (2 packrats). So that's another 600lbs (200 x 3 - not including me who was...

I'd liked to add one thing here that may help some of you after reading some other threads about weighing, especially at a Cat scale. If you have a manual awning (God forbid) get the pull rod out for it and use it to reach and push the call button that is way up there ^ . It's helped me to not...

My current fiver has a GVWR of 10,000lbs and a "published" hitch weight of 1,600lbs. I have a 2004 2500HD D/A with a GVWR of 9,200lbs. I'm looking at several Heartland models right now including a BH 3055RL, BC 2950RK and a BC 3250TS. Crunching my numbers on my truck I only have approx. 1,600lbs...

Thanks for the link Jim! And it is beer time here, past actually. :)

Is there a brochure we can see/download anywhere yet? I don't see one. I'm very curious to see this.

Anyone have experience with these folks? Don't see much mention when searching online. They seem like nice folks up front. Wondering if anyone has dealt with them.

I am currently looking at Big Countrys and this causes some concern. The brochure I have dated 01/09 shows a photo of aluminum trusses in the roof (at least it sure looks like aluminum to my eyes). The one I have dated 01/08 does not show a photo of the roof construction at all. There is no...

Hey all, looking at the BC models 2950RK and 3250TS (don't want to buy another new truck right now). I saw the thread on the 3250 about access with the slides in...what about access to the kitchen and fridge with the slides in on the 2950. Not a chance, huh? Looks like if you climbed over the...
