    Gateway - Fresh water tank vent

    2015 Goshen Rally - Discussion Thread

    We attended our first "Heartland Owners" rally this past April in Gulf Shores, AL. We met a great group of people who all warned us that "we do not want to miss the Goshen rally next year!" So, we are making plans to attend this one in June 2015. We will have to plan to leave Goshen in time to...

    RV Park Must Haves

    Don't forget a water pressure regulator. Some parks have water pressure that could be hazardous to your water line system. We also carry a water filter. May not be necessary but it makes us think it is!!!!! Also, bring your happy face and don't be shy. Just walk up to your neighbors and start...

    GrumpyOneAndTwo's Gateway

    Hey Bill, Thanks. I can get on the roof but not with the RV ladder. I only have 6" between the top of the ladder and the cross member. Oh, and be sure to clear the joists before raising your head! I have 30 amp power and can run water to it. I have a sewer clean out plug for the house that I...

    GrumpyOneAndTwo's Gateway

    No Sir GatorDawg, It is 40x14x14. My 3200 rs is 39' from hitch to spare tire. And I would do it again if a hurricane took mine out! You will love your 3500! I wish we would have gotten the rear entertainment and a king bed. Welcome to the Heartland and Gateway family! Mike

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Don, I always use the wall entry when I want to get behind the docking station. I've had to re-tighten a few water connections back there. In fact I have the wall down now checking a leak from the city water connection. Now, when I winterize I just drain the water heater, open all the...

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Don, I had a time figuring out which connection was which also! I finally had to take a marker and label them!! The one closest to the door is for the satellite and the second one cable. The other one I assume is for watching a TV outside, but I never tried it yet. Hope this helps. Mike

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Don, No, my battery is in there. I guess you can add a floor & make a little storage compartment. I'll take some pix tomorrow of the underbelly. That is if it quits raining by then! (it is supposed to quit) Mike
  18. GrumpyOneandTwo

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Don, I also have the 3200 rs. Yes, the underbelly is held by washers and screws. I would go out and look for you but it is coming down cats and dogs! When the rain stops I'll go look to see how far forward the underbelly material go's. I do not have the residential fridge. I am not sure if...

    Marcus, Yep, 60k is mighty high...But, If you bought the truck at least you and Floyd would have a place to sleep!

    Thanks, I hope your truck lasts as long as you need it to!!!! I don't NEED another one...I just WANT one!!!!!!! Thanks once again. I want to do our kitchen counter tops and the vanity top too! I went to amazon.com and found the wax there. Going to order some. Mike

    Big Horn 3010RE Weight

    Hey Dave, I think you are looking at the weights incorrectly. For instance, the GCVWR on my F250 is 23,000 lbs. My truck and trailer together weigh 21,360 lbs. Your 3500 should have a higher GCVWR than me. So you are good on that weight. Mike BTW the GCVWR is the gross combined vehicle weight...

    Marcus, mmmmm, wouldn't this be a good time to trade it in??????????? Talk to the CFO....she might agree!!!....lol... Good Luck!!! I might put in a credit app with my CFO, she likes it when there is minimal shaking!! Now you have to wish me luck!!!!!..lol.. Later, Mike

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Marcus, I had a feeling you probably could share some knowledge learned the hard way. I'll go back to the VA Doctor on the 15th. He said to have another x ray and then he will know what is the next step. That camera set up sounds neat. Let me know how it works out. When is your next camping...

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Well, the JT's look good. I can volunteer for one of the three fat men....well, maybe even two of them! Floyd and I would qualify as the 3!!!!!!! the slide doesn't look correct, that's for sure. If it is still under warranty I would ask for a appointment where you wait on the RV. Take care, Mike

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    LOL...I'll try to come up with a reason you need that Duramax/Allison 3500!!!! but wait, none of the reasons I come up with have worked with my wife!!!! Soooo, good luck with that...you on your own!!!!!! The break couldn't have been a clean break, the way it crushed the sucker, it may be a...

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Marcus, The Dr. said I need to wear the cast for 6 weeks....that puts it in the week we are supposed to leave. I explained why that would be a problem and he said he might can remove it in 5 weeks. All the while I'm thinking....(you can remove it in 5 weeks OR I will!!!!!!) lol The...

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Marcus, Yeah, sorry to say but I did break it. I got into it with a ladder....he won!!!.....I was hand washing the Gateway. I was almost done!.....That's good news to hear about the JT's. That will now be on my to-do list. If Shelli noticed the difference that is all the endorsement you...

    Hey Marcus, Great looking counter tops!!!! The JT's look like they were factory installed!!!!!!! I can't wait to see the tub surround! Now all I need is for my broke arm to heal!!!!!!!! I wanted to polish my whole camper! Oh well, that will teach me not to call the ladder bad names! That is...

    We just pulled the trigger on our new Gateway 3650BH

    I went to the Heartland RV website and looked at the pictures for the 3650 BH. It shows two slide out switches on the wall by the entry door and a slide out switch on the bedroom wall. So it appears they all have their own switch. I have a 2013 Gateway 3200 RS and my slide outs are electric, so...

    so impressed with new gateway!!!

    Hey Marcus, I hope all is going well for you. I saw a Sundance that had the strong arms on it but I never did see the owner. I wanted to ask him if he installed them himself. Also are they doing what he hoped they would. But, I never did see him the whole weekend. What kind of fishing are you...
