    Vented vs Ventless washer/dryer

    We are going to install a washer/dryer unit in our Road Warrior, maybe. I understand the drying differences in the Splendide vent and ventless units and discussed the units with the factory. I understand a controlled environment is better for the ventless unit because of the water temperature...

    What do you recommend for a battery configuration? And is the 7 year warranty worth the money?

    Our RW comes with one 12 volt battery which I think is the standard configuration. I am wondering if one 12 volt battery is enough? If you believe one 12 volt is not enough for the battery system, do you recommend 2- 12 volt batteries or 2- 6 volt batteries? Two 12 volt batteries are cheaper...

    Our 390 is in!

    Our 390 came in a few days ago and we went over to see it yesterday. I am very impressed with what Heartlands did to the coach. We custom ordered a lot of things including cherry raised panel cabinets, two recliners in place of one sofa, different cabinets in the bedroom so it does not feel...

    Our decisions on body paint, 3rd air conditioner, and 6 point

    We ordered the 390 because we like the way the rooms are separated. That being said, there were many things about it we did not like and made a lot of changes and the factory and will make many more when it is delivered. I doubt your coach will show much damage after two years but I am always...

    Our decisions on body paint, 3rd air conditioner, and 6 point

    I want to thank everybody for their input and opinions on all three subjects. I read all of them and agree with all of them so I thought you may want to know how we decided. The body paint is approximately $6,500 and comes in one flavor. The basecoat/clearcoat would be nice especially since...

    Picking up new trailer, what to look for?

    We ordered a 390 which should be off the line today and we should be able to pick it up in a few days. We have never owned a fifth wheel or any other trailer and we do not know what to look for when we pick it up. We made quite a few changes to the coach so naturally I will look to see that...

    5500 Onan Generator

    Does anybody know how much gasoline the 5500 generator uses per hour and does it run on premium gasoline? I am thinking the auxiliary gasoline tank is probably overkill for me because we will only be running one Harley most of the time.

    Rw 390

    Don't know if you have a window in kitchen or not but we just ordered one and they have taken out the kitchen window and put in a cabinet. All I could see was the slide out anyway so I thought that was a good move. Also increased pantry door by 3 inches which makes a difference. We were going...

    If you had to choose? Full body paint or 6 point system?

    My wife said one or the other, but not both. So cost is not a consideration. Which would you choose and why? Closer I lean toward full body paint the more I want the 6 point. Closer I lean to 6 point the more I want paint. I just cove cognitive dissonance.

    Gulfstream Enduramax

    Does anybody know how the Enduramax compares to the Cyclone/Road Warrior. From what I can see, it appears to be a very nice coach with great storage.

    In Hot Climates

    For those who battle the heat more than we do in Michigan, is a air conditioner in the garage worth the money if there will be one in the kitchen and living room?

    Good or bad, we ordered a new 390 today

    I should have said a chair rail type of molding and not wainscoting.

    Good or bad, we ordered a new 390 today

    As you face the sink, to your right is a window with blinds. The window allows a good view of the slide out. So what they have done is remove the window and put a cabinet on that end of the bar. To your left is the pantry and they have increased that by three inches which would make it much...

    Good or bad, we ordered a new 390 today

    We were able to examine the coach at Lake Shore RV in Muskegon, MI. I like the layout but we are having quit a few things done to it. My guess is that the things we are having done will not add to the resale of the unit and we are just throwing our money away if we look at it like that. On...

    Good or bad, we ordered a new 390 today

    My wife and I just ordered a new 390 today. So I guess we will take the plunge into the 5th wheel world. Don't know if it is right for us or not but when we do something we go all out. First time we took a trip in our airplane we flew from Michigan to Jackson Hole Wyoming. Yes, across Lake...

    6 point hydraulic leveling system

    Cambered I Frames and Stress (6 point system) I understand and very much appreciate the responses I received from the thread below but I probably did not ask the question clearly. My understanding is that the forged I- beam frames used in the 5th wheel are cambered, meaning the beams have a...

    6 point hydraulic leveling system

    My wife and I will be ordering a Road Warrior in a few days and I was wondering about adding the 6 point leveling system. I can understand the front and back jacks working fine but am concerned about the center two jacks. How are the center jacks attached to the unit? If they are attached to a...

    Backup Camera Question

    We have decided on the 390 Road Warrior and are making changes to the unit to be installed by the factory. I can have a back up camera installed which I believe is a good idea (same system as used on the Landmarks). Is it better to have a permanently installed unit at the factory or buy some...

    Storage Question

    We have decided to purchase a Road Warrior and I was wondering about storage. If I store the 5th wheel outside under a roof, do I need to worry about mice and other critters?

    Full body paint

    I am looking for opinions on whether full body paint on a Cyclone or Road Warrior is worth the extra money. Is the money thrown away when the unit is traded or sold or is paint worth the investment? Thanks in advance.

    Cyclone vs Road Warrior

    Hello All, We are almost first time toy hauler owners. We are considering a Cyclone 4000, Road Warrior 390, and a Fuzion. Our choices are based upon floor plans and we have no loyalto to any brand. We like the floor plan of the Warrior 390 best but would like to know what the differences are...
