    Slide damage

    A motor home backed into my 5er while parked in storage. Estimated $1100 damage. Only good thing is the gentleman that did it called me and said he would pay for the damages. My faith in humanity is restored! Actually should say awning damage, just got a wisdom tooth pulled and am a little...

    Waxing the RV

    Has anyone found or built an extension for a random orbital polisher? Seems it would be easy to mount a six foot pole to one and save the countless trips up and down a ladder. I was thinking of modifying my telescoping deck brush. Any bracket ideas would be helpful. Sent from my iPad using...

    Moulding killed my tv

    I hope Heartland sees this and starts using more that a few tiny nail gun nails and one strip of glue for moulding adhesion. Big off side moulding fell off and hit the big screen. I reattached the moulding properly when I got to camp. Pretty ****** off when I turned on the tv and saw the damage...

    Slide seal not flipping when extending

    I have a 2014 gateway 3500re. When extending the big offside slide, the top seal doesn't flip outward, causing a crease in part of the inner seal. It seems like the seal and top of the slide are too dry and won't catch the rubber. Lube and baby powder that everyone uses seems to me would only...

    Need roof advice

    While cleaning the roof on my 2014 3500re I noticed an abrasion from a tree branch. Not too deep, it is a single 3' long scrape or scratch. Should I fill it or leave it alone. A little concerned over time it may develop into something worse. Thanks for any insights!

    ATF: Gateway - jacking point?

    hello. I have a 2014 gateway 3500re and just upgraded to 17.5 inch Goodyear 117s. Where is the best place to place a bottle jack to raise the tires enough to change them? Couldn't stand worrying about the stock Towmax after reading this forum.

    New Gateway 3500RE Owner - L shaped kitchen island question

    Hi There! My First Post!! Recently picked up our Gateway 3500re. Very happy so far. How much movement should the L shaped kitchen island have? it seems to lean toward the slide and the sink dosen't drain fully. If I lean against it, it will move an inch or two and level itself. Is this normal...
