A couple of Redwoods became available in my area this summer so I checked them out. They are nice; however, after joining a couple of Redwood forums, I came to the conclusion that this 5th wheel has too many problems and the value of the RW is not as good as a LM, DRV, or Augusta...

I used a tank cleaner from Northern Factory available from Amazon to clean my used tank. Your tank doesn't sound that bad so soap and water may be all you need. I plummed my tank output to a 20 micron paper trash filter (3$-inline filter) then to two spin on filters connected in series (one...

Thanks for the update Andy: as a prospective Landmark owner, The LM is a wonderful design, I could spend several minutes telling you why I really like the LM, but it has some short comings for us (and yes, positives for others) and I hope you'd prefer to hear my wish list vice complements...

OP: what floor plan Landmark do you have? For those who frequently monitor this forum: is the a relatively common problem with Landmarks? Is the primary cause of these cracks broken wall welds as was mentioned in one case? Thanks. Dave

TravelTIger: that's correct, DRV has been acquired by THOR and I've recently read instances where the DRV service has degraded (DRV owner's perceptions based on comments I've seen on other forums from users and those who have gone thru similar problems with their DRVs). "If" DRV service takes...

Did you hear what the carrying capacity will be for the Aire? Didn't see mention of it in the article. If the DRV quality remains and CCW is decent it would be worth looking at given what they are doing to the LM line this year.

Having one might open up some new new boondocking opportunities!

Well that's more disappointment. I had tentatively decided that the Ashland would be our next RV (in 2018) (although I'm hesitant about the cross-hallway bath arrangement) but found out that HL had discontinued the floor plan . My next choice was the Newport but I didn't want the 1/2 bath...

Thanks Kathy and Wayne. I'll have to look into the HL incentives further, sounds like you and Cholo got some convincing incentives. Enjoy your new Landmarks--I'm glad for you.

Hi: I was wondering if Heartland offers incentive packages prior to major RV shows like the Hershey PA show? Got this from Augusta RV (one or more of these items comes standard on the Landmark, but overall the package below appears to be a nice upgrade): If you order your Luxe or Ambition...

I guess it's true IronJ, folks from Texas do everything bigger! :) Think I'll go with the remote start Champion. Thanks

That sounds like a safe solution--I'll look into the solid bolt inside type. Thanks Boatman.

I have a gauge similar to the ones you illustrated but mine has a dial gauge and will read 110 PSI (anticipating I'll have GY H tires) but that doesn't impact my inability to reach the inner valve stem. Currently, the only way I can get to the inner one is to take the outer tire off. Had the...

Thanks Mburtsvt, The justification the seller seems valid, but I would be leary about using anything that is pressurized across both tires--seems like that would be a recipe for disaster while towing if that failed. - - - Updated - - - Thanks Bones: i have both but can seem to reach the...

Recently purchased a RAM 3500 dually and I'm in the process of preparing it for towing. The truck didn't come with valve stem extensions; so I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations as to what brand, type and shape extensions I should get (e.g., brand, type: stainless steel, rubber, or...

Appreciate all the insights. Hadn't thought about the longevity of LP over gasoline but that shouldn't be an issue as I'm intending to use gasoline most of the time just to top off the batteries and occasionally run the AC when boondocking--wasn't planning in using in an RV park/resort. When...

Monday night our sticks and bricks home's power went out. Never happened before (even during our hurricanes) as we're on a hospital power distribution circuit. But a transformer three houses down blew which took out power to just five homes. Took all night and into late morning to get it...

I've been researching RVs for a while now and am frustrated by the poor RV manufacturing quality at all levels and lack of customer service (to mention just two frustrations). I recently read an interesting eight-part series of articles entitled: "The RV Industry Death Spiral," written by Greg...

If you decide to install a lock you may want to consider something like what Jim B. installed--I seem to recall he later posted that he was happy with it and didn't use screws just the tape. Read more here...

You should mention skunks, I seem to remember we were camping in upper New York state. One early morning my DW and daughter headed out to the restroom. As they approached the ladies room they were surprised by a fluffy skunk (or maybe I should say the skunk was surprised by them)! Our...

Our hearts are grieved over your loss of Carol. Offered up a prayer for you for the grace of Christ to encourage and heal your wounded spirit and give you discernment for the path He'll provide for you into the future. May you find comfort and hope in knowing that God himself knows what you...

For those who don't need wireless remote thermometers you may want to consider the Acurite Multi-Sensor Thermometer with Three Remote Temperature Sensors. Christ and G's Travels YouTube videos mentioned that they used them to monitor their coach's LP refrigerator, freezer, and basement temps...

Mike: Thanks for the heads-up; I'll have to stop by this weekend. Dave

Thanks Dorthy and Eric: All I can say is my wife must have put you up to those encouraging words about Myrtle Beach. WRT McGeorge's, we plan to visit McGeorge's this fall along with the RVOutlet in Ashland. Thanks for the welcome. Dave

Hi Keith and Carol: Sent a reply to your post earlier today but it never made it into the forum. Anyways, I plan to join the Owners Club and participate when we get our RV (assuming it's a LM/BH) and glad to hear your the new Virginia Chapter Leader as I have seen a lot of posts from you on...

Hi Mike: I've visited Chesapeake RV Solutions twice now--nice folks there! Don't remember any heartlands there when we last visited (mostly Keystone)--nice to know the owner is retired navy, will mention that next time I stop by as they are only a few miles down the road from us. If my DW has...

Hi everyone: don't yet own a Heartland as we are currently in the research phase. We're focusing on the Landmark or a Big Horn as they seem to offer a good value. We have a 2014 Ram 3500 DRW, 6.7 Cummings, 4x4, 4.1 with Air Lift--so I think we are good to go with the TV but need the...
