With great regret, I have announced my resignation as Nor-Cal chapter Leader. John Dawson will be handling the Spring Rally this year. As many of you know, we have bought a house in Idaho, near Mountain Home. I am still working full time at Safari RV Repair at Shasta Lake for the time being and...

Heads up! We are down to 10 spaces left in the park, and those will be going fast in the next couple weeks as they're not held exclusively for us. I have 2 spaces held for those that just won't know if they'll be able to come or not. If you're thinking of going to the rally, please call the KOA...

For this year the Nor Cal Rally will be held in the fall, and at Oroville KOA as usual. I have 2 dates available , September 8 thru 11 or September 29, thru October 2nd. I would like to change the location for 2012, but would like to have interested rally attendees participate in the location...

Our Rally this year will be either late Summer or very Early fall. The location is up to all of my wonderful Heartlander's. We can do Oroville KOA again, which is always a nice location with a lot of perks for us, or we can try a new location in Nor-Cal. Keep in mind that the fall and summers...

We will be headed to Elkhart around the 22 of February from Northern CA, to be in Elkhart on the 28th. Obviously the route we take will depend on the weather at the time, but we are looking at I-80 if weather holds and south to I-40 then up if it doesn't. 80 is 700 miles shorter, so is...

So here's the deal. I work for an RV repair and parts store. I get to order new stuff for our housewares and accessory section at the store. The Boss is going to a big show in February, and I get to re-stock a couple sections of the store. What I need from you RV'ers are some ideas of what you...

Well, folks, looks like my Spring rally is on hold for a bit and will turn into a Summer or Fall Rally. I took a job that was supposed to be part time, but in reality, is full time for awhile. The job, coupled with family health issues has forced me to admit that I can't do this for a month or...

These are the customer issues we have had in the last few days. Makes us all feel better about our own "oopsies". 1. If your wife tells you you're going to hit the tree and you keep driving, you WILL rip your refrigerator vent right off the roof. On the upside, they're not that expensive and...

Waiting for Ray to retire, and needed something to do, unemployment stunk. Just finishing my 2nd week of employment with a local RV parts and service center. Just a lot of fun. OK money, but the perks are great. Big discount on Parts and I get to see the new stuff first. Flexible schedule so I...

We're planning a 3 week trip in late June-July and need suggestions from those of you who are more traveled than we. We intend to leave Redding and head to northern NV, up into Idaho then loop over into WA and down the coast back into CA. We intend to stay a min. of 3 days in each location...

A huge thanks to Mike Moreland of HL and Ralph Graves of RV's of Sacramento for making our rally a success. A huge thanks from me personally to all of my helpers and my participants that made the rally a fun event. In the coming weeks, I'll be sending a poll out as to location of next years'...

On our way to the Nor Cal rally. Sunny and temps in the high 70's all weekend. Rally stuff packed and done, and even organized. Wine on board. I am in such a good mood today! Amazing how leaving work for an RV trip makes everything better. :) Wishing each and everyone a great weekend from...

Looks like Oroville KOA again, as it was a great park and worked out well last time. Looking at either the last week of March or first week of April. Any preferences from those planning to attend? I will set the date next week after hearing back from you all. To those that haven't attend a Nor...

Was an apparently lost Landmark in front of me on the freeway frontage road on the way to work this a.m., towed by Gray Chevy pick up and I just looked up from my desk to see an new Edge driving down Shasta Dam Blvd. Unusual to see any Heartlands here other than the ones I know. Boy, does that...

After spending the weekend with a friend and their new Titanium, we are wondering about changing our electric front jacks to hydraulic. Has anyone else done this or thought about it? Seems to be not a tough thing to do, but wondering if we need to get a bigger pump and reservoir or would the...

Any interest in having a small group at Oroville's Feather Falls KOA? The last week or two of March? The park is small (45 spaces) but very nice. They have a heated pool, spa and of course the casino within walking distance. Nice club house. Let me know, we'll be staying there again the...

Another Bighorn and a Sundance are here at the Feather Falls KOA. cold and damp here so no signs of activity yet. Only a 45 space park so to have three here is more than we usually see, especially this far north in CA. Good trip, but if you leave your faucets open after draining the water out...

Don't know who it is yet, but there's another one here. No sightings since we left Shasta Lake except this one. Will be moving in the direction of the Oregon Coast during the next week. F-350 is doing a great job so far, not even struggling on the road thru Crater Lake.

OK, we did a bad thing. Bought a 2005 F350 PSD dually last night. We had an F250 7.3 and loved it, but were right at the ragged edge of weight limits. Traded both it and an F-150 we had in on the dually. Looking for input from owners as to anything to watch out for, maintenence tips, etc. We...

Bought newer TV with B&W already installed. Have two sets of mounting brackets. Dodge 2000-03 and Ford 2001 (may fit other years) Super rails, two capture plates, one bolt on and one new quick connect style forthe HL Lippert pin box. $1200 . Location is in Northern CA. We love this hitch but...

Long story warning... Ok, anyone that has seen me post, knows that I'm not only a Heartland fan but the Nor-Cal chapter leader. What only a few of you know is I owned a hot rod shop for 10 years that was known for exceptional customer service. I'm fairly tough when it comes to handing out kudos...

85" x 47" white replacement fabric for slide awnings. $49 plus shipping (about $17.00 for most locations) A&E awning arm bracket set, polar white color $35 plus shipping. Both items never used. Eother PM me or email for details.:)

Question for anyone who has recently replaced the Coby system under warranty. Is the HL factory still replacing the Coby's with Coby's? Ours is starting to bite the dust (big surprise) but won't bother to warranty it if they're going to replace it with the same one. Ours is stopping in the...

Lost the door on our water heater coming home last week. Have tried to order a new one from the dealer, but found out from Surburban the door is only available in a "door-kit". Not too happy, but oh well. Now the question. What color is on my early 2008 Bighorn? Polar white or colonial white? I...

If you are coming to the No-Cal rally, and haven't made your reservations, please do so ASAP and post your response here.. //heartlandowners.org/showthread.php?t=4266 The list of registered attendees is posted there on the last page. If you have registered and you do not see your name there...

Because our trailer was on the dealers lot, they covered the carpet with vinyl, and taped down the edges. Despite cleaning with everything I could think of, (magic ereaser included) I still have a residue where the tape was. It's no longer sticky, and looks clean after I mop it, but begins...

(long story) Kudos to Heartland and our dealer. I've been meaning to post an update to my December/January Leak issue, but thought I'd better wait until I had complete resolution. As a few may remember, I had a horrible leak in the back corner of our 3370. After asking for suggestions on the...

Ready to take the BH in to the dealer tomorrow and making our list of little stuff for them to fix. If anyone has the swing-out style 26" TV in a 3370, (or similar) can they tell me if there are 2 safety straps or just one? We have one across the end,which keeps the TV from swinging out during...

Anyone on this site? We were going to Corning on Friday and I spotted the Bighorn in the Rest area just north of Red Bluff on I-5. We never see one that's not on a dealer lot, so it was surprising to me as I looked out the window and saw one. Black truck pulling it. Our Bighorn preformed...

I don't think it's the slide leaking. I stood and watched where the water was running. (no jokes about not enough sense to come in out of the rain..:) ) Anyway, the gutter where the roof rolls over has a seam in it and a low place right above where it's wet on the inside. Water is pouring down...

I posted this on the ask the factory thread as well, but figured that some else may be able to chime in. It finally started to rain here and we have a leak at the back of the dining/ entertainment slide on the floor at the corner. (BH 3370). I have checked the top, bottom, side and every where...

Finally getting some rain here and my dining/entertainment slide is leaking at the back corner by the chairs. We will take it to the dealer in a couple weeks for the rest of the minor stuff, but its leaking so bad that I'm worried about ruining the floor.:eek: I have looked at the seals, upper...

Just curious if there would be any interest in forming a chapter or to try to get together? The only place we see the Heartlands are on the dealers lots, although I did see a Big Country at Bordertown RV park in NV.

Having unseasonably warm weather here, so turned on the living room ceiling fan this weekend. Really noisy. Don't know if this is common considering the less than solid mounting place, (living room vent) or should we put it on our repair list? We did turn it on during our PDI, but just to make...

We've had our 3370 for a couple weeks now and DH is starting to modify the storage areas. Anyone have any tips or tricks that worked well for them? Things you moved or re-arranged? Where do you put your "stuff"? Our newest trick accessory was some lightweight plastic slat board with wire...

We picked up our BH 3370 on Oct 12. Really nice rig and we are happy with the overall quality of the unit. My question is more of a decor issue than function. In the bath, door handle, faucet and shower frame are all bronze color. What was supplied for Tp holder, tooth brush holder and soap...
