This thread won't die until the LAST Blow Max is off the road! I related my experience with a local sherriffs deputy that I knew purchased a Greystone within a month of when I got my Sundance. I warned him to check his tires. He thanked me and said that they only had one more outing planned this...

Yeah 'cause we all carry our failed tires around on vacation...... The Towmax tires are defective, we do not need a lab for that. As long as Heartland and other manufacturers move away from equipping these trailers with proven crap we the consumer win. Sounds like they are indeed moving away...

60 MPH going around Chicago = Death by 18 wheeler! I run 65 most of the time, but hills drift it up a bit. These tires are not suitable for a manure spreader with a SMV sign it!

Two years and maybe 3000 miles and broke belts in two tires. I have watched them closely, these failed in the last 45 minutes of an 8-hour pull. Temp. was 82 degrees, speed no more than 68 mph. I had 5 failures in a single year on my old trailer, so I'm no stranger to these piles of crap. I was...

The insurance guy was out yesterday. He has to crunch the numbers yet..... But both he and I are VERY impressed with how well the trailer weathered. The fiberglass is perfect all the way around. Roof is fine. Damage is limited to the lower tin skirting on the slides, (2) window frames, and the...

Bad day for the 3300CK. Skirting dented up for sure, have not fully inspected yet. Don't want to look. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IHWlKtKrBo&feature=youtu.be

Bill, That's a definate option for those that don't want to pop a bunch of holes in the side or just want to "prove" that a gutter would fix the water problem. When it comes to dealing with water issues, ALL options are on the table. Myself, I did not want to deal with any adhesion issues down...

I just went to my RV dealer and requested a 9' length of gutter and EVERYTHING I would need to install it. They had several pieces of take-offs that could have been had for cheap, but I thought $17 was pretty ok for new...LOL. My total was less than $50, but I already had the grey putty tape...

Well kids it looks like a success. Several storms have rolled through and not a drop of water enterred the outside pantry and I did not even bother to lock it. I highly recommend this modification if you have a 3300CK. (Is it a modification if the factory used to do it?)

SJS, Very interesting. I did a search and found the 11's with the gutters and hit and miss on the '12's. None on the 13's Here is a picture I found of a 2011 Looks like a running change in early 2012. Wow, looks almost exactly what I installed.....guess I'm in the wrong industry! They also...

Forcast is rain and storms tomorrow. We'll see what happens!

Well I went all in and opted for standard RV gutter. Hated to drill holes, but I wanted a factory style fix that would last. Les than fifty bucks. for everything to complete the installation. It has spouts on both ends, but is angled to favor drainage to the rear of the coach.

Is your '13 the newer colors with the tan lower and maroon accents or does it have more blue graphics. Mine has the maroon skirts and it looks great with the purple-burgundy skirts. Otherwise...ya.....Happy painting!

I found this product while surfing around tonight. Looks pretty good ( I would prefer aluminum as well). If I found a place that sold it by length I would probably use it. http://www.trimlok.com/prod/Drip-Rail/Plastic-Profiles/All-Product-Categories_141/Drip-Rail_67.aspx

I'm hunting for a solution to keep water out of the rear outside pantry door. In heavy rains water comes down the side and invariably ends up on the floor back there. Myself and the dealer have taken turns trying to correct the seal, but what it really needs is a "visor" / gutter over this area...

Thanks Jim, That is really helps buyers like me feel that this Forum has life and purpose. Glad you pop in here and read what the end users are posting up, that kind of direct responsiveness will set Heartland apart in the marketplace. Now THAT, about nails it.

There it is. August and the Toybox has been removed from the floor plan illustration. 9 months after is was NLA. Thank You Mr. Webmaster. Now if you can update the outside kitchen to the correct configuration with the forward fridge / rear pull-out table. I know, I know, picky. But for online...

Somebody needs to take that stapler away from Mr Carpet installer. Our 3300CK has 50 gazzilion staples poking up, that sure makes a person wince on a bare foot. We have had many, many warranty fixes as well and plenty that I've done myself. I watched all the videos on YouTube that Heartland has...

The dealer replaced the seal and tightened up the latches. The tech said that the seal was cut at the top. They did not replace the messed up wood. I needed it for the 4th July week end and then it goes back for more work. It been in the shop for 3 weeks, but excellent work so far.

Bump again, Mid July 2013 and the Sundance 3300 CK on the Heartland website still shows the toy box. Wake up Mr. Webmaster.

Nice Post Steve. Looks great. I'll be doing the same with my 3300CK. When the little monkies are all active in the bunkhouse, those JT's would be nice. I completed my hitch (looks pretty much like yours) so I really appreciate your insight. Earl

Venting here: bear with me. I have my 3300CK in for a laundry list of warranty items, most of which are the expected little things. No big deal. The one that sticks out is the lack of the ability of the imitation wood, throughout the coach, to deal with any amount of water without swelling and...

BUMP...June 2013 is here and the website still shows the toy box and the old outside kitchen.........tsk........tsk.

Re: Dissatisfied with Heartland! AMEN Brother.....I was bitting my lip. He is happy, move on. Now......all we need is the AFTER picture so we can see it properly dressed for going out on the town......err......campground.

April is here and the website still shows the toy box and the old outside kitchen.........tsk........tsk.

Re: No response from Heartland Dennis, I'm with you on this. That picture is worth a thousand words, and they are all FAIL. The Blue is as out of place as a mini-skirt on a Hippo. I have yet to see the color of the awning on my 3300 CK. Mine was one of the first with the new color...

I mounted the 32" Sony LED TV last weekend. I ended up using a very basic fixed mount. I used a stud finder to locate the wood backer. The backer is lower than I would have liked, as I wanted to mound a sound bar under the TV. It will work for now.I've got about a 4" space above, and 3" space...

Good Point Dave, Warning: Use at your own risk. I neither endorse or recommend the use of this great value good working product. No warranty expressed, implied or cared about. Does that cover it?? Probably a good move by the Lawyers at Allen. It's a risky move by a manufacturer to actually...

If these are the same Lippert Engineers that designed the trailer frames and leaf spring hangers that I've repaired, I'd like to talk to them as well! So, where are we with this discussion.....oh yeah......bike racks. I run a 4-bike rack that I picked up on the road at Wal-Mart when my Yakima...

Static weight ( the camper parked in your driveway) and dynamic forces (4 bikes doing the boogie dance down Hwy 20 in Iowa) are two VERY different critters. You might get lucky. But my 25+ years in the metalworking field plus first hand accounts of bike parts scooting down Interstate 80 tell me...

DO NOT TRUST THE 4" SQUARE TUBE BUMPER TO DO THE JOB. I know it's real nice to bolt the little clamp bracket on there and move on.....but.....eventually metal fatique will cost you. Maybe you will get away with it, but you will set up the next family that owns the rig for failure. Bike racks...

Welcome to the Heartland Family. Iowans must have an eye for quality! I did a pile of research over the last couple of years as well. Sundance was not even on my buyer radar at first. But after stumbling into the brand at a dealership and climbing up, down, and under the rig; I was hooked. Well...

Jim B. Thanks for the explanation. Progress is painfull.......I'll try to adjust (deep breathe). The fact that you pop in here to offer an explanation shows to me that You / Heartland are indeed listening to owners and trying to create a better environment to us learn and grow together with the...

Ok lots of the Sundance brand threads are now closed / moved with no explanation. What's up? I don't really like being thrown into the mix with all the other Heartland brands......thus why I joined the Sundance Specific Forum in the first place. May as well make it an anything towable forum and...

Thanks Steve, I guess we are the only two that have TV's in our campers??

Thank You Paul, What started as a a curious question turned into "Is there anyone reading this?". Thank you for popping in, as a new Heartland owner, I'm testing the "company waters" with my 3300CK and getting support means alot to me at this point. Yeah, 5-6 months of posting a toy box that...

Where exactly did you find THAT information?

I bought my 3300 CK minus TV and picked up a nice 32" TV way back on Black Friday (saved big $$$). I'm thinking Spring and camping lately so I better get the TV mounted. Does anyone have a model number or recommendation for a wall bracket? Does the factory equipped one lock in place or are...

2-23-13 The Toybox is STILL shown on the floorplan on the Heartland website as well as the old outside kitchen layout. Strangely the flooring is updated. This is annoying and a disservice to people who primarily shop floorplans online :(

Moose, That's curious. I got mine the first week in December.Is yours the new colors (Mocha cap) or old? I called Paul Craven and left a voice message asking about the toy box........no reply.
