    EVENT: Heartland Owners Camp-Out: PA, Bedford - 9/9/2020 to 9/13/2020

    Hi Jamie, Just a FYI, when I called to make my reservation the campground said they were FULL in the Heartland section. I asked if there were any "held" sites left and was told there weren't, and that the closest to them was Site 225. If anyone decides to cancel a pull-thru site, please...

    Another Dometic failure!

    Thank you for the info. There is a part of me that would like to replace both a/c's with low profile units, but since they're still under warranty that seems like a waste of money right now.

    Another Dometic failure!

    Hi Lyle, I see you're in PA (know it's a big state though!) Was wondering if you could share the name of your Mobile Tech? Although I do realize they may not cover our specific area. Our bedroom AC started short cycling the final night we were at the NE Rally and the dealer performed the...

    EVENT: Heartland Regional Rally: DE, Millsboro - 5/16/2018 to 5/20/2018

    Thank you Jamie and Ginger for all your hard work pulling off a great rally! This was only our 2nd Rally, but it was really great seeing those we met in NY last October again, in addition to meeting some new people during the Rally. We're looking forward to our next one. Safe travels everyone!

    I'm sure you have your hands and eyes full! Especially with the changes you're trying to reconfigure. You're doing a great job!

    Ladies - I need some advice

    Maybe I have a different mindset here, BUT if your husband isn't comfortable pulling something that large and heavy, how about downsizing to something smaller like a travel trailer or a shorter/lighter 5th wheel? possibly even something used? This way he could get a feel for towing something...

    Unfortunately we've had a change of plans and won't be able to attend the Rally. Hopefully we'll catch up to everyone in May at the Regional Rally @ Massey's!

    King bed

    Amazon has a wide selection of memory foam RV King Size mattresses also. We replaced our original mattress with a 72 x 80 Brentwood Gel 13" Memory Foam one and it made a huge difference! As for mattress pads or sheets, California King seems to work a little better than regular King for getting...

    RV King Bedding-Best Products With Links

    I just use regular king and/or cal king sheets that have elastic on all 4 sides of the fitted sheets and haven't had any problems with the fit. I did swap out the mattress for a 13" memory foam one from Amazon so maybe the thicker mattress is making a difference?

    BC brand sure is quiet

    I forgot to mention also that we upgraded to a Trailair Flex Air pin box before the long road trip, specifically so that we wouldn't have frame issues! :rolleyes: Some of our friends said they would want a new trailer, our feeling was a new one could have the same problem so just FIX the one...

    BC brand sure is quiet

    We've had issues since day 1. Not sure if all were Heartland's fault? I didn't post the big issue in this thread cause I posted it under the frame section. First trip after purchase in Oct 2016, shower faucet leaked behind the wall, not a big deal to replace since DH is a plumber, BUT the...

    Slide moved out on its own?

    We had a similar issue where the bedroom slide moved open a few inches, but we are plugged in though (15 or 20 amp) as the camper is parked next to our house for the winter. Our thoughts were that since we had a long severe cold snap where we were not above freezing for about 10 days and it...

    Finding Low Clearances

    I didn't want to mess with the factory GPS settings in the truck just yet, so when I subscribed to the lowclearances.com website I downloaded the info and then embedded it into my Google maps account so I can access it from my phone or tablet. Our trailer is 13'3" hooked up to truck and I have...

    Club Changes

    I did read the FAQs and understand that the dues fee that I paid will go to my Chapter and I don't really have a problem with that for the Oct 2017/Oct 2018 year, it's the fact that I paid thru October 2020 that's annoying me.

    Things I Like About Rallies and Things I Don't

    Jamie, That might be a good idea, either a first timers gathering or even a little cheat sheet sent via email or handed out for first timers could be helpful. I can honestly say that I had no idea what to expect at our first Rally. I did see the Agenda and time for the Meet N Greet at 6pm, but...

    Things I Like About Rallies and Things I Don't

    We were just at our first ever RV Rally last month. We had a great time and some Chapter Leaders swung by our site to welcome us and introduce themselves once we were set up. My husband is much more friendly and outgoing then I am, I can be a little reserved when meeting new people. We felt...

    Charleston SC RV Parks

    We're fairly new to camping so haven't stayed at a lot of campgrounds yet, but the Mt. Pleasant KOA has been one of my favorites so far. We had a huge corner premium site right across from the lake and were lucky enough to see an eagle catch a fish. Agree that it's well kept and the staff were...

    Charleston SC RV Parks

    We stayed at the Mt. Pleasant/Charleston KOA when we went to Charleston. Loved staying in that area, it's close to Boone Hall Plantation and Fort Moultrie and not too far of a drive over into Charleston. It was a very nice campground.

    EVENT: Heartland Regional Rally: DE, Millsboro - 5/16/2018 to 5/20/2018

    Finally spoke with CG. We now have a 2nd reservation for the 1 night (5/20 - 5/21), but not at the same rate. Jamie, just an FYI that the woman I spoke with (Kathy) stated that it wouldn't let her add the extra night to the reservation since it was outside the group booking parameters so...

    EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: NY, Bath - 10/13/2017 to 10/15/2017

    Thank you, we all made it home safe. I've now come to the conclusion, after Mike & Jim were on a 4-1/2 hour seek & find mission for Jim's bearings, that we will have at least 1 complete spare set of inner and outer cones, races & seals (I'd be even happier with 4 sets) in the basement on...

    We're booked. Site #89. Right now our email confirmation is for 5/16 to 5/20, but I booked til 5/21 and their system is blocking it for some reason even though no one is booked on site #89 for 5/21. Waiting to hear back from CG when Manager gets in to override it and extend to 5/21. Thought...

    RV SnapPad - Fall 2017 Group Buy Promotion (HOC members only)

    Feedback wanted on new Pinbox and Hitch selections

    The hitch is more my husband's area, but we have the Trailair Flex Air and a Curt Q20 for the Ram's OEM puck system. He wanted the B&W companion puck system, but their hitch height is 17" - 19" and the Curt's height is 14" - 18" so we didn't think we would be able to get low enough with the B&W...

    Big Country Front Bedroom Closet wood damage, frame flex issue?

    I did contact Heartland and sent pictures, both hitched and unhitched. Heartland's response was that the designers, engineers and frame manufacturer (Lippert) all say it's not frame flex. Per Heartland's instructions I have an appointment scheduled with a dealer in May. Unfortunately we do not...

    Heartland Service near Philadelphia, PA? I need a recommendation.

    Re: Heartland Service Center near Philadelphia, PA Area Recommendation I have a service appointment set up with them for 5/17/17, so I hope they'll still honor it. I'm getting a little concerned since it appears that Heartland is losing their dealers and my Big Country is only 6 months old.
