    6 volt battery question - can I charge just one of the pair?

    Good info. I was not sure how long it takes for charging the batteries back to 100%. Thanks.

    6 volt battery question - can I charge just one of the pair?

    Yes, I checked the battery meter inside the BH and it was showing 1/3. Our first trip will be in about 4 weeks and we will have full hookups after about a 4 hour drive. I am just trying to make sure that my batteries are not damaged by letting them get so low during the off season. I do have a...

    6 volt battery question - can I charge just one of the pair?

    As a backup plan, I thought about plugging the fiver into my truck and letting it run for a while...not sure how much of a boost I would get. I could probably do this for an hour or so...

    6 volt battery question - can I charge just one of the pair?

    I have a weird problem. My 2013 Big Horn is in storage with no electricity nearby. I checked the batteries today (2 x 6 volt wired in series) and they are only at 1/3 full. We are planning on hitting the road in about 4 weeks. I attempted to pull both batteries to take home and charge them, but...

    Winterizing new 3585 with ice maker- need help

    I just completed most of the winterizing for my 2013 BH 3585. This is the first camper that I have had with an ice maker. I read about the importance of disconnecting the water supply to the ice maker and the solenoid, but I can't find where the connections are. My fifth wheel is in a storage...

    Lug nut size?

    I have a new 2013 Bighorn 3585. We have been on the road for a while and I want to check the torque on the lug nuts (as specified in the manual). Does anyone know the size socket that I need? I have a torque wrench but need to buy the appropriate socket to fit our wheels (which have the 8 lug...

    Keyless entry?

    I was thinking that it would be nice to not have to carry keys when heading to the pool, or biking around the campground....but I have since read about the challenges of the keyless system. I guess I'll just use keys.

    Getting close to pulling the trigger on BigHorn

    Update: Our new BigHorn is in and we love it! We picked it up a couple of weeks ago and went straight to our home campground for 5 days. We had a great PDI at the dealer, and after our first camping trip, we are impressed with the overall build quality and attention to detail. So far, the only...

    Keyless entry?

    We just picked up our new Bighorn 3585 a few days ago. So far, we love it! I noticed that we do not have the keyless entry that the website shows under features and benefits. This is a 2013 model Bighorn. Did they do away with the keyless feature?

    Getting close to pulling the trigger on BigHorn

    We are getting excited. According to our dealer, our new Bighorn was scheduled to come off the line last week. It should be on its way to us soon! I found my truck and have been polishing up my Silverado 3500 dually. I have one more week of work and then it is GO time! We are planning a great...

    I am getting ready to order the 3585RL with all the options that we like. Thanks for everyone's input! Looks like I will have at least one more trip in my Jayco while I wait semi-patiently ;)

    Putting together quote list for BH3585

    I am getting ready to order a 3585RL. I did not know about the brake upgrade option. With the weight of these fivers, it sounds like a good idea. Does anyone know what you get with the brake upgrade, compared with the standard brakes?

    Getting close to pulling the trigger on BigHorn

    Does anyone know what the level up option should run when ordered from Heartland? I am leaning that way based on everyone's feedback.

    Thanks! Our home resort is Indian Cove in Va. Beach. I saw that you have a rally nearby there coming up.

    Getting close to pulling the trigger on BigHorn

    My wife and I are going to take a bunch of time off and travel around the country starting this summer. We have a 27' travel trailer that we need to upgrade. I have been doing a lot of research and the BigHorns seem to be a great choice for overall quality and price. We really like the 3585RL...
