I lowered the hitch to bottom level in my truck. The bolts have one more spot on the trailer, but it will rub electronics (in turns) if it sits only couple inches further in the bed. I definitely feel much better about the balance now. New pic below: Thanks!

I will look into that... Thanks! This is as low as I can get the front of the trailer. It's way better now. New pic:

Yep... too high. This was the first time the trailer was hooked to the brand new RAM 3500 4x4, and I took pictures and measurements. I will drop the hitch a couple levels prior to the next connection.

Well, all the talk on this blog educated me about GVWR. I learned that the ONLY thing that matters for pin weight is the "yellow sticker" on your door frame. Therefore, out with the old (2011 Ford F250 4x4 Diesel SRW at 2,160 lbs load ) and in with the new (2016 Dodge 3500 4x4 Diesel DRW at...

I'm with you then... Makes no sense.

What is their function/purpose? Their website not very informative.

Update: I decided NOT to do the Extend-A-Shower, because it sticks out into the bathroom too far while a second person may be trying to use the vanity. I placed the shower bar above the shower component to provide appropriate length for the curtain. I will put magnets facing each other on the...

We home now... Not happy in this heat!

We have now owned our 2013 Heartland 3010RE for about 6 weeks and the last 4 weeks were out on the road. I have done so many modifications to our 5er, the list would eat up this blog. After a month of HATING the 3 glass-panel shower doors, I removed the entire frame and glass. The water...

Sweeeeeeeeet! I'm still leaning toward the 2012 F350 Dually King Ranch Fx4. I REALLY want to see yours and get feedback from you after you use it around town as a commuter.

Welcome Sue! We are new as well (last month or so). Connect with this blog and download Tapatalk for your smart phone. The people on this Web blog are incredibly helpful and insightful.

I've never been searched, but... I usually show my P.D. ID when checking in.

Added bonus, thanks!

Thanks BigGuy! I'm gonna tell my wife that I can know upgrade to a 350/450 Dually and say you said so!!!

Let me know when you get yours built... I want to come take a look at it!

You bet!

In WY now for Cheyenne Frontier Days until the 31st. Cowboy boots and hats for 10 days!!!

We are on the road for a month as new (to us) owners of a 2013 Bighorn 3010RE and new HOC members. We are working (self-employed) and playing on the road while visiting some beautiful places in amazing weather. Post your photos and fun stories: 1) Rest stop while in transit 2) Pagosa Springs...

Allstays app on my Android and Allstays Pro on my PC (it's way better than the app). We cannot live without ALlstays!

Thank you very much!!!

I saw that place... it looks insanely nice.

We are attending Cheyenne Frontier Days and then Ft Collins, Denver, Breckenridge, Vail, and more Rocky Mtns. I'm actually working on this road trip too! www.DeLung.com

Just saw this... thank you! I have become obsessed with reading many of the blogs. I am especially addicted to the "what did you do to your RV today" blog. I am saving info and learning so much about members' modifications. Does my HOC membership also come with free or discounted therapy...

Just installed 4-wire #6 (underground in conduit) to a 50A dedicated breaker (box) this week with less than a 30 foot run from a 100A. Running both AC units while loading 5er is a MUST in Phoenix!

That anti-gooseneck policy is probably older than the invention of the Anderson Ultimate Hitch, and I believe that Heartland and Lipert are in bed together. If I had a brand new trailer, I wouldn't violate the policy... BUT, when the dealership I bought my 2013 BH from sells and installs the...

I think you are more than sufficient! I have found the folks on this blog to very, very helpful, but the old Ford, Chevy, Dodge debate exists with EVERY product. Take a look at that Anderson Ultimate Fifth Wheel Hitch to save a couple hundred pounds and still have a usable bed while out on the...

Oh boy... I missed the engine type. But payload is more than sufficient.

I have 2011 F250 SD 6.7L with Firestone Air Bags pulling a 2013 3010RE. We just hauled up and down hills from Louisiana to Arizona at 9.2 MPG passing cars uphill at an average of 65-70 MPH. Your specs: 2017 Ford F-250 Pickup truck Horsepower:*385 to 440*hp Curb weight:*5,683 to 6,695*lbs...

I completely agree with you. The feedback on my question was phenomenal. I too will be shopping for and Onan 5500 LP for my Bighorn. Thank you all!

Carpet cleaner just left. It looks amazing. We have NO problem drying the carpet in the AZ July weather!
