Thanks Hennie! As it turns out, we need to head home on 9/20. We will arrive on 9/17. I have a Newbie question....Do I need to make reservations with the Rancharia or is that handled through the club?

Sign us up! It will be our first rally and we look forward to meeting other Hearland owners. EDIT: CHANGE OF PLANS AND WILL BE UNABLE TO ATTEND. PLEASE REMOVE US FROM THE LIST.

Thanks to the Mods for moving to the correct forum and thanks for all the responses. I thought it would be just fine but my Wife was concerned. Thanks for the reassurance!

I need to remove the 5th Wheel Hitch from my truck and I don't have anyone available to help me lift it off. I was wondering if I could connect the Pin to the hitch, remove the 4 pins that hold it to the bed rails and use the landing gear to lift the hitch off the truck and hold it for a couple...

That's great to hear! My wife bought me a 120 this weekend as an early Father's Day present for the 5ver. Thanks Ray!

I'm sure glad I found this thread! We have a 2011 ElkRidge 27RLSS that we finally had the chance to use a cable hook up last week. Once hooked up we sat down to watch a ball game all we could see was static. I found the connection at the site box to be loose, which the Park Maintenance crew...

We had the same thing happen on our 2011 ER 27RLSS. The dealer fixed it under warranty and found that the slide was out of adjustment, causing the problem. I use a pair of slide protectors now to be sure it doesn't happen again.

My Wife and I spent the weekend at a nice little park just outside of Rio Vista called Rio Viento RV Park. The park was very clean and the grounds are well manicured with large grassy areas. The bathrooms include showers and were as clean as they could be. Sites include full hook-ups (50amp)...

Another vote for Goo-Gone. Then follow up with soap and water.

Thanks for sharing Jim.

Great suggestions! Thanks guys!

My wife would like a few hooks and hangers mounted to the walls. I don't know if I can simply screw them to the wall or if I should use another type of hardware. What type of mounting hardware is most commonly used inside an RV?

We used it this weekend and didn't experience any alarms. Kinda frustrating but I'll just have to keep an eye on it. I'll definately get some leak detector solution to keep in my tool box.

Yes, it was the LP detector mounted at floor level by the door. The alarm cleared as soon as I opened the door. When it first went off I thought it was the CO detector.

Did a check last night...no leaks from the water heater or stove. Checked around the tanks, everything is tight and can't smell any LP. Ran the furnace and still nothing. I guess it's time to give in and take it back to the dealer.

Sadly, no. I saw one on another model and I think it may only be available on the longer units.

Hi ankie! I posted up on your introduction thread. Welcome to the ER family :cool:

So far, only when I run the furnace. I'll sniff around the tanks and test the stove and water heater again tonight just to make sure.

We have a new ElkRidge 27RLSS and we're experiencing an intermitant Propane Leak when the furnace is on. Sometimes it works just fine but other times you can smell the gas and it sets off the LP alarm. The leak is only apperent when the furnace is on. My better judgement tells me to leave it...

From another new owner of a 27RLSS...welcome to the Forum! The members here are very helpful and so friendly. You're going to love the new rig.

No kidding? I learning that my dealer really didn't do a very good job delivering our unit. I may just wait until I take it back in for warranty items that need addressed.

Thanks for the replys! I'll check my hitch first to see if I have any adjustment available. I'll be careful to leave enough bed to cap clearance.

We took delivery of our 27RLSS last weekend and found that, with the truck level, the trailer sits nose high. It looks like the Pin box is has some adjustability that would allow me to mount the Pin higher, effectively lowering the front. Am I thinking correctly or am I missing something...

We're heading to Bodega Bay, CA on 3/5 for our first trip in our new ElkRidge 27RLSS. We can't wait!!!

Thanks TT! I'm finding that you're so right. I'm finding that I have a lot to learn and I'm really looking forward to new experiences.

Thanks for the reply John! After sleeping on it and, at the suggestion of my more level headed wife, we took the unit back to the dealer yesterday morning for inspection. One of their technicians spent some time and showed us how the Slide really works and that it was working properly. At...

Well, we finally picked up our new trailer but ran into problems right off the bat. After we got the trailer level and ready to go, we tried to open the slider but it is hung up at the top! We had a SliderTopper installed at the dealer and I'm afraid it's not allowing the top of the slide to...

We're very lucky to have the room to store the RV at the house. We've lived in the home for 18 years and we've always wanted to pour a pad but never had the $$$ to do it. With the kids done with College, we were able to save the money and finally get it done. We are truely blessed. I have...

We did our PDI yesterday and we spent 2 hours going through EVERYTHING! Thanks for the suggestions on what to look for. We decided to add a SlidderTopper as well as a dual battery set up so we left the trailer at the dealer to have the work completed. It works out well since we just had the...

Thank again everyone! We're having the Slider Hitch installed today and the walk thru on Monday. We're getting very excited!

Thanks for the warm welcome Jim! You're not the first person that told me to do a thorough inspection duing the PDI. Luckily, my Sister In Law and her husband have had trailers for more than 20 years and have given us some direction.

My wife and I purchased a 27RLSS on Sunday and we take delivery on Monday 1/31/10. We're sooo excited! This will be our first real RV and we have a lot to learn. We had a Four Wheel Campers Hawk pop-up camper for about 4 years but it was just to small so we went to a local RV show and decided a...
