    Outside Light some call it a scare light bulb

    kinda related, I need to change the bulbs on a neighbors coach one of these days soon and wondered what the trick is to removing the yellow lens ? I have not even pulled a ladder to look at it but I assume it is just snapped in place ?

    Finally! Picking up 3612 on Saturday , need some opinions/advice ASAP

    probably too late on this. But hopefully you installed the B&W on yourself or have a "qualified" dealer you know and trust. I work camp and a few weeks ago I was talking to a guy about his rig when I noticed how close it was to his truck. Long story short, both back corners of his truck were...

    rating of "d" rings in the floor

    Sorry it took so long. I sent a few pics out to some P.M.'s and forgot to double check the forum again. Here are two pics. Not very good due to the fact I cant get a good over all pic with all our gear in the way. We full time and work camp,every week we get a few days off and leave on our bikes...

    TV mount in bedroom 3812 ?

    Does anyone know if there is a plate in the wall to mount a TV bracket by the hook ups on my 2010 3812 ? I would like to mount a small TV on a swing away bracket in the corner where the hookups are in the ceiling. Between the window and the bathroom door.

    lemon or not ? 3812 problems stacking up.

    I am not sure lemon is a really bad way to put it ? This many problems on a $60,000 car would sure be considered a lemon. Sorry if that makes it seem worse then it is. But as mentioned Heartland is on top of it , so at least we have a good manufacturer standing behind us and that is a great...

    rating of "d" rings in the floor

    I have a 3812 and instead of adding D rings I purchased good high quality E track, sanded, primed, and painted it with a textured satin black paint and used stainless #12 wood screws to secure it to the wood decking. I used 6 pieces of track, 4 long on the flat area and 2 on the sides of the...

    That 6.0 was bad deal for many,Ford screwed up and let the consumer be the ginny pig. The new ones seem better. They do have great gas motors from what I hear. It only takes me about 2 seconds to spell GMC one I figure out how to spell it:rolleyes: I only have cummins diesels with manual...

    generator service

    I run amsoil in mine and a wix (napa gold) filter. Napa can cross the number for you (if you cant get it-let me know I have a spare I can find and get the number off it). As long as the oil meets the specs required by manufacturer you are free to go with what ever you prefer. In the motorcycle...

    So excited!

    Thats funny: driveway camping ! My first one in mine was in the RV dealers parking lot : a locked gate parking lot, we had to order a pizza for a late dinner and run out and meet the delivery guy by the gate. I even spent a few months full timing in my business parking lot. Enjoy the toys as...

    So excited!

    I am not looking to disagree with you. But I full time and work at a campground, I talk to RV owners of every make model and style, seems most with big rigs that run gas will be the first to say it drinks their wallet dry. My truck is a 03,3500 DRW-intake/exhaust mods, stacked tuners and...

    So excited!

    Not sure I would agree on that. I cant imagine towing 16-18,000 with a gasser. Not trying to make a gas/diesel debate but there is a reason all the big rigs are diesels. I think he made a great move (personally I like a cummins-but they are all good) , He has good reason the be very excited with...

    lemon or not ? 3812 problems stacking up.

    Re: ATF: Cyclone - Did I get a lemon ? Please advise ! Well, how about this. Heartland called me today. I was actually with a few other full time people when the phone rang. Talk about a bunch of people who are wishing they would have bought a Heartland product ! No one could believe the level...

    lemon or not ? 3812 problems stacking up.

    Here is a short list of current items with problems corrected and yet to be corrected. Before I go into the list I want to explain a few things . First off we are full time in the unit (work campers) : so taking it to the local dealer is very very difficult, and our dealer experience has been...

    Slide cylinder (Booth) - threaded adjustment rod

    BTW: I would not use thread locker unless you know exactly what type to use (cant tell you off the top of my head) , But "IF" I am correct, that nut is a nylock which many of the lock tights will eat the plastic locking material. The factory used this type of nut without any type of thread...

    Slide-Out Alignment?

    So if it is really tight on the top and loose on the bottom when fully extended, do you adjust the cylinder nuts to push it out farther on bottom or should it be adjusted up on the other horizontal jack screws ? Mine is really tight on top and a least 3/4" farther out on bottom. Seems if I...

    Adjusting Slides + a few other comments and concerns.

    We live full time in our 2010 - 3812 cyclone. We picked it up late last year as the new 2011 were out. Here are some of the concerns I have for my cyclone. First off the aux fuel tank is constantly expanding and contracting which pops hard enough to scare the******out of you. Can I just leave...
