    Gateway Residential Fridge

    Thanks for the feedback on the fridge. Our 3650 did come in. We've done a pretty good PDI on it and found mostly minor things, and 1 major. The fridge did in fact feel a lot more secure, so I'm happy that has been addressed. The only issues I wasn't crazy about were 1) A few slide out...

    Stackable Comparison

    Got it. In our case, it'll have to be the whirlpool or splendide with the 20 amp plug. The cargo trailer they're going in will be a 30 amp supply, so that narrows it down. The trailer is our mobile attic, wash room, shop and for bikes and misc when moving from place to place. Had to keep it...

    Stackable Comparison

    On the maytags I looked at in the link, it lists the dryer as 30 amp. Surely this thing doesn't really require that. Splendide equivalent shows a lot lower amperage requirement with a standard 20 amp plug. If everybody's putting the maytag or whirlpool in an RV, surely they don't require...

    Thanks all for the responses. Sounds like I'd be safe with either. Was looking at the cost savings on Whirlpool, but I guess it depends on where I'm at when I'm ready to purchase.

    Gateway Residential Fridge

    I hear you. This will be #7 RV so we've learned over the years. Some things I'll let the dealer touch, others I fix my way even if it costs me money. I sent a message to the Heartland general manager Bryan in hopes maybe they could look into this before we even get a VIN. I have a fix but...

    Thanks guyc66. Sounds like the Splendide has been reliable. I've read several good reviews. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Gateway Residential Fridge

    We have a new Gateway 3650 on order now. We came across one one the lot that had the Residential and were quite disappointed in how it was secured. They used a piece of angle iron on the top / back, screwed to the top of fridge and to the side wall. Problem is there is no backer or stud in...

    Stackable Comparison

    About to go full time and debating brands of stackable washer / dryers. We're looking at the Splendide Ariston set or the comparable Whirlpool version. How easy is it to find service for either. Any opinions on one being more reliable than the other. These will be installed in a nicely...

    Gateway - General Questions / Additions From Factory Not Listed

    Sounds like the 13' 4" may be the right figure, or close anyway. Seems like they'd use the low profile 13.5 AC on the front to reduce overall height a bit, but we'll take it how it is. We've never had anything over 12' 11" and never came too close to tagging anything, so a few more inches...

    Thanks for the words of encouragement kernst. I was somewhat surprised how well the 2 worked together. We like it COLD as well. I hear you on the in or out scenario. My kids are the same way. One thing we lucked up on, is right before we signed on the spec sheet to order, we noticed the...

    Gateway - General Questions / Additions From Factory Not Listed

    I realized that as soon as I walked in the 3650 yesterday for the first time. After running the 2 ACs throughout the most of the day tour, temps in mid 90's, I was satisfied with what was installed. The unit we looked at didn't have dual pane windows, ours will, so that'll help even more...

    Thanks for all the feedback bankofdad. Were you by any chance the one I spoke to while at the dealer today? We did place an order for a new 3650 today. Finding out about the residential fridge at the last minute sealed the deal for us. Several of the options I had asked about we just left...

    Aluminum Wheels - Pressure Rating

    According to pictures, Tredit and Heartland, they are 110. Way to pricey to have factory upgrade, so I'll buy what I want and have mounted / balanced after it comes in. Thanks all for the replies.

    Aluminum Wheels - Pressure Rating

    Looking at the wheels in the pictures of the units on the lots, they appear to be the T07 8-Spoke 8-Lug wheels, which have a 3750 rating. Found them on the Tredit Tire site. Should be a 110psi rim with that weight rating.

    Aluminum Wheels - Pressure Rating

    Hopefully it's on the back. Pretty sure dealer isn't going to break a tire off the rim just to find out. Then again they might. We're going to end up ordering a Gateway 3650 soon since nobody has what we want, and it'd be nice to know more about the wheels. I've been through this same ordeal...

    Aluminum Wheels - Pressure Rating

    I've seen bits and pieces here and there on this forum about upgrading the tires on various Heartland fifth wheels. The Goodyear G614 looks like a decent upgrade over the Towmax tires, but, will the aluminum wheels that come on the Gateway handle the 110 PSI? Does anybody know the pressure...

    Gateway - General Questions / Additions From Factory Not Listed

    Figured no better place to ask these questions than an owners forum. We're sort of interested in the Gateway 3650BH. This will be our 7th RV. We've owned everything from a popup to Class A motorhome, so we know what we like and dislike. On previous units, some factories have made modifications...
