    So, here's my dream

    Hello all, I'm a current very happy North Trail owner, and can hardly wait for our 4th season with the trailer to start in 3 months. We've had the rig out on the road for up to 3 weeks at a time in complete comfort, but not always with complete convenience. Here's what the DW and I are hoping...

    Converter Concerns

    I've noticed the electrical converter on our 21FBS is behaving in a way that seems strange to me. The fan doesn't always come on, but seems to depend on the load applied. This makes sense to me except for the fact that in certain conditions, the fan seems to pulse on and off repeatedly, almost...

    Wiring under overhead cabinets on 21FBS?

    We just picked up our new 21 FBS and are enroute back to Colorado. Other than some awful sidewinds, the trip has been great. The trailer tows very easily, almost like there's nothing back there behind my Tahoe. I'm wondering about where I can mount a paper towel holder over the sink area. I...

    We've taken the plunge!

    So, after doing a lot of research and looking, we placed our order yesterday with RVCapitalWholesalers for a 21FBS. We're looking forward to getting the TT and spending much more time in the Colorado mountains this year!

    What can you run off the battery?

    My wife and I are discussing what we should do regarding generators, and the question came up about what we can run when we have battery only. I had assumed it would be pretty much everything but the air conditioner, but then I wondered about the oven. Assuming we have two batteries, should we...

    Battery Charge?

    Does anyone have any guidance on how long you can expect to operate on a single battery charge? With the heated underbelly, furnace usage, lights, etc would a single charge on the battery last for a weekend campout in cooler weather, or should I upgrade to dual batteries and/or look at getting...

    Breakaway System?

    Does Heartland recommend any particular breakaway system for the North Trail brakes? I'm looking at the Tekonsha P3 brake controller, and need to look for the breakaway system as well.

    "Black Tank Flush System" Feature

    I've been reading about the macerator pump systems out there that sound like they will make taking care of the black tank dumps a lot easier and less messy. However, I notice the spec sheet for the North Trail calls out a "Black Tank Flush System", but doesn't describe it. Can you tell me...

    Electric Water Heater???

    I thought I saw a reference (that I can't find now, of course) to the fact that North Trails have an electric water heater, instead of gas. Is this correct? The standards/options section of the website lists it as a DSI water heater, which implies gas. Thanks in advance.

    28 RLS Hitch Weight Discrepancy

    If I download the Floor Plans brochure, the 28RLS has a hitch weight of 550 lbs. However, on the specifications section of your web site, it shows 690 lbs, a 140 lb difference. What is the actual hitch weight? Thanks!
