    RV changes

    Well I was not sure where to post this but I guess this will work. We have decided to change to type of RV we will use for our travels and camping. We recently traded our 2007 Bighorn 3055 in on a Allegro 36LA motorhome. It was a hard decision since we have spent almost 700 nights in it and...

    Tire wear

    Was checking over the Bighorn before heading to Florida and noticed one of my tires is showing wear on the inside edge of the tread. No other tire is showing wear. The tires are Goodyear G614 with 18,000 miles on them. Was wondering if this might be due to an axle or suspension issue. Any...

    St. Louis RV show

    We traveled the 125 miles to St. Louis yesterday for the first day of the RV show. It has been several years since we had been. Was disappointed in what we found or did not find! There were a couple of Heartland dealers there but there were only 2 Big Country fifth wheels at the show. An...

    The Landing Point, Cape Girardeau, MO

    We live about 2 miles from the park and have taken our Bighorn there when we have had a house full of guests. It is a converted mobile home park but I think they have done a good job with it. The Pilot House across the road looks like a bar but has good food.

    Kitchen faucet

    A couple of years ago the kitchen faucet started knocking hard. Had an RV tech check and he said he never saw anything like it. Tried replacing inside componets but that did nothing so we just replaced with a new faucet from Lowes. Good quality and cheaper. I had no problem doing it myself. Put...

    Nashville Area - or storage

    We have stayed at the KOA before and it was OK. A couple of years ago Heartland had our Rally there so we were there then. We needed to store our Bighorn for a week while we made a quick trip to N.C. and the KOA put it on a vacant site for us. I am sure any of these campgrounds may also offer...

    The extra $10 charge is just to make sure we can cover some extra costs I anticipate with the Rally being an extra day and having the Christmas in September theme. We are wanting to do some extra things at the dinner the last evening. Thanks for asking I am sure others will be wondering also.

    What replacement tires are you guys using?

    We run the Goodyear 614. Have had them on for about 15,000 miles and they still look new. I know I have heavier tires than needed but not had any blow outs. You do need to have accurate weights and then adjust tire pressure per manufacture guidelines.
