Heartland finally called me back today. I spoke with the parts personal. They advised me the light is a Hawk Scare Light part # 81760. They advised the part had been discontinued and that I may be able to find one on the internet. I did a search and found the same thing most and everyone...

I have a 2014 Cyclone 4000 that one of the rear flood lights above the rear door is broken. I have tried to no avail the contact Heartland. They don’t answer the phone and they don’t return calls. Anyone know where I could purchase one of these replacement lights? I’ve pretty much given...

We have a 2014 Cycone 4000 that we fulltime in. Recently drained the fresh water tank. After emptying the tank I noticed that I still had some water water coming out of the drain valve. I’ve looked at several previous post on this forum related to stuck check valves over filling the...

If your flatbed already has a goose neck ball you might want to consider a Reece Goose Box. I tow a Cyclone 4000 with a GooseBox now a a couple of years without problems. I like that I no longer have to deal with a 5er hitch and have a clean bed to use when wanted...

We have three services as fulltimers. ATT, Verizon and Sprint/Tmoblie. All three are unlimite. The best deal now that we have is the Sprint unlimited hotspot which we get from FMCA which cost us $49.99 a month and it’s TrueType unlimited. We use between 500 to 700gbs a month stream on...

I’ve got a Treager portable pellet smoker I purchased from Costco a few years ago that we carry. First I’ve heard of this one, let us know how it works out.

I had Good Sam ERS years ago. I dropped them when they refused to pay for a tow sighting I had not contacted them for authorization. I was broke down in the Canadian Yukon no phone service for miles. A RMCP showed up and he even had to call on his radio for tow service. I told them I had...

I would second and highly recommend going the Affinity RV Repair listed below. It was well worth the drive to Elkhart to their repair facility for them to do the work on our slide and delamition repair. If I had any serious problems I would use them even if I had to pay for it.

I haven't seen anyone mention using a Reece GooseBox. When I purchased a new truck a couple of years ago I decided to make use of the
gooseneck it came with.I replaced my 5er pin box with a 20,000lb Reece Goosebox. It is the only gooseneck option that does not void your warranty. The...

We had this problem occur before. I tried several types of traps even the DIY five gallon water bucket type. The best traps I’ve found that works are the ones below. I get them from Tractor Supply. You need to get them before they multiply and that doesn’t take long...

We were in Florida a couple of years ago and our two AC’s could not keep up. I went to Sam Club and purchased a portable AC to help out and it did good cooling our unit down. You do have to vent to exhaust out and I used a window to do that. We moved every few weeks and the portable AC...

I had the same problem from the gitgo when we purchase our Cyclone. The dealership Camping World did little to fix the problem. I finally fix it myself by replacing the faucet for one a Lowe’s.

We are fulltiming in a Heartland Cyclone 44’. Like you if I was going to replace it now I would be looking at something under 40’ and closer to 38’. My number one choice would be ArticFox 5er by Northwood Manufacturing.

I purchased a new Chevrolet 3500 LTZ DRW 2L custom hauler last year. Decided to make use of the goose neck ball instead of using another 5er hitch. Purchased a 20,000 lb Reece Goose Box and installed it on our 2014 Cyclone 4000. We’re fulltimer’s and it has been a excellent hitch. Pull...

I purchased a new truck a year ago a Chevrolet 3500 DRW LTZ 2L Custom Hauler. I decided not to go with the conventional 5er hitch this time. After much research I found that the Reece Goose Box was the only goose neck hitch approved by Lippert. I replaced the pin box on our 2014 Cycone...

Our fireplace sounds like rocks rolling around in a can at times. Had it replaced under warranty and this one is doing the same thing. Of course we are out of warranty now but it still works.

We just have some delamination repair done on our 2014 Cyclone 4000 in Goshen, IN at Affinity RV Group. They removed our bedroom slide and then cut out a large section near it. Repair the area and glassed it in and repainted. The cost was about $2500.00. They did a great job and would...

We ordered our 2014 Cyclone 4000 with full body paint in blue. We found our that Heartland sends the RV out to be painted and then places the Cyclone decals on it over the paint. The main reason we ordered it with full body paint is not to have and decals. Buyer beware!

We used PPLMotorhome to sale our 5er and was very pleased with the process. We left the RV with them and it sold in a few weeks. The money was wire transferred into out account as we are fulltimers and had eft the state. I would use them again...

We’ve been in Goshen, IN at Affinity R Group having work done. We’ve had a bedroom slide issue ever since our trip to Alaska last year. We also have delamination problem on sidewall near that slide. Also head to Oman on Wednesday to find out why the generator want start.

I just replaced the water pump on my Cyclone 4000. It would run but no water. I didn’t know until it was replaced that they put a inline fuse on the 12 vote side of the pump. It was not the problem but something to consider if it’s not working.

This is very true. We ordered our Cyclone 4000 with full body paint and advised them when we ordered it was because we did not want to deal with decal pealing like on our previous 5er. Heartland sends there units out to be painted and then placed “Cyclone” decals over the full body...
Re: Reservations?

We have been fulltiming for over 12 years. We found that there are three times a year you need to make reservations Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Labor Day holidays. Arrive before the holiday starts and stay a few days after. But to add to that the last couple of...

We are fulltimers also. Last year we had the same thing happen to us. We were in Moab and lost power. We could use the generator but no 50amp going into the 5er. Mobile RV repair replaced the transfer switch. A week later in Salt Lake City we lost power again. We found that when we lost...
