    Shorten the cabinets?

    I think they have moved the cabinet back or its narrower in the new models versus ours which is a few years old now. When we stood by the new counter it seemed to have more room. Maybe someone with a new 3055 could confirm this.

    Disappointment in Heartland Warranty

    So sad t o see this post turn into personal bashing by bullys. If Heartland can't speak up in their own defense - then so be it. But don't turn this into a RVNet attitude by bullying a poster due to the difference of opinion. Just a bit of info - In Canada we pay 30-50% higher Rv costs up...
