    EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: AL, Gulf Shores - 4/25/2013 to 4/28/2013

    Since this is our first rally, I am not sure how the potluck dinner works. Can I bring a meat, like pulled pork, or is it just all side dishes? Any help for this newbie would be appreciated.

    EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: AL, Gulf Shores - 4/25/2013 to 4/28/2013

    We signed up for the rally but haven't made reservations yet. I called the park to ask about making reservations for the rally but the girl I talked to didn't know anything about it. Is there a particular person we should make reservations with?

    Mikey Joins the Tow Max Blowout Club

    Thank you - the chart is extremely helpful. Our GVWR is exactly 13,000 so now I can relax and enjoy our camping trips without worrying about tires blowing. We had a similar situation on our previous trailer that had duro tires on it. Parked at a campground and noticed the tread had separated...

    Mikey Joins the Tow Max Blowout Club

    About an hour from home at a rest stop, we noticed that a belt had broken in one of our tires and it was rounded in one section. We made it home and yesterday we replaced all four tires with GY 614's. We had less than 3,000 on the towmax's. We were lucky we caught it before a blow out. Has...

    Installed a Backsplash

    I actually used those same panels in my kitchen at home when we redid it and I love it. Easy to install and easy to clean. You have given me an idea - I may also use them in our fifth wheel. They look great in yours.

    While at home... RV plugged in? Refer on?

    Re: While at home.... We installed a 30 amp at the house and keep the unit plugged in and the air conditioner set at about 85 during the summer months to keep the humidity down. Gets hot and humid here in Florida. We only turn the refrigerator on a day or two before we go camping. Don't keep...

    New Co-Pilot

    Beautiful puppy! English Mastiffs are gorgeous dogs - gentle giants. I am sure she will be taking over that ElkRidge in no time.

    Who decides when, where to go and stay?

    I've noticed that quite a few of the wives are still working and the husbands are retired. What's with that? I think the women's lib movement did us ladies more harm than good. :confused: Our situation is similar, DH is retired and I am still working so we travel according to my vacation...

    Cable not working

    What you're saying makes sense but when we plugged the cable wire from the campground's cable feed into that plug by the front door, the TVs inside the camper worked. But we will check the connection on the backside of the camper as suggested. I am sure something has come loose or was never...

    Cable not working

    Thanks for the info. We will check the connection ourselves but if we run into any problem, we'll definately check with customer service. They have been very helpful on past issues.

    Cable not working

    We have a satellite and cable connection in the back of the camper where the hookups are and just a cable connection by the front door so I guess you can watch TV outside if you want. I'm positive they are both for cable.

    Cable not working

    We hooked the cable into the plug in the back of the camper but was not able to get cable. The cable does work from the plug in the front of the camper, which meant we had to run the cable wire underneath the camper. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what we can check ourselves to get the...

    Pet ramps

    The steps look nice but unfortunately our dog is kind of wigged out about climbing steps that are open so that is why we are looking at ramps. He is just the opposite of your dog, but thanks for the info.

    Pet ramps

    Do you have any problem with the boards slipping? I know it would only take once for the boards to slip and fall with my 80lb big baby on them and he would never go up them again.

    Pet ramps

    My lab/shepard mix is starting to have a tough time climbing into our truck and 5th wheel. I know the pet ramps are designed for trucks but do they work on the stairs into the campers? Any suggestions on best kind?

    Fifth Wheel Damage

    We had a blue ox bed saver installed 4 years ago and never used it until our last camping trip. Each of us had thought the other one chocked the wheels and released the jaws. It's a horrible feeling when you realize your camper is sliding and there's not a darn thing you can do about it...

    #2 grey tank has no valve

    I am beginning to believe someone did forget to install the valve - don't see any other solution but to take to dealer.

    #2 grey tank has no valve

    We have an Elkridge 29RKSA and our #2 grey tank does not have a valve although it has a drain. When we open the drain, the kitchen sink water pours out- the valve for the other grey tank does not control it. We thought that when we drained the #1 grey tank, it would also drain the #2 tank but...

    outside scare lights

    Thank you Broncofan - we finally found out that the light icon works the scare lights but unfortunately mine are still not working. We checked the bulbs and they are okay so it's possible the wiring is not connected or some other problem. I agree that the scare lights are too bright to keep on...

    outside scare lights

    After several e-mails from Heartland, we were finally able to find the receiver/brain for the remote. Just in case anyone else is looking for it...ours is located in the upper cabinet to the left of the coat closet. Open the right hand cabinet and remove the decorative panel on the right side...

    outside scare lights

    We took your advice and called Heartland Customer Service. They said we need to reprogram our remote with the receiver/brain. Unfortunately, when asked where the receiver is located, they weren't really sure because it is not always in the same place in every unit. They told us several places...

    outside scare lights

    Thank you for your reply Crumgater - we have the exact same unit as yours - ElkRidge 29RKSA. It's strange that we have a remote and you don't but we definately do not have any switches in the unit for the scare lights. We have the 2 switches you referred to on the steps but they don't operate...

    outside scare lights

    We have a new 2011 Elkridge and we can't find the switch for the outside scare lights. There is no switch for them in the cabinet beside the tv. We have a remote but don't see the scare lights option on it. Can anyone help?
