Go to your local grocery store and buy some "Cameo Stainless Steel Cleaner." Apply it with a moist sponge and it will make it look like new. Also, when you store your RV you if you spray a little "Corrosion Block" (Should be able to find at a hardware store) it will assure your sink keeps that...

BigBird, If you have any water leaks I would replace the fitting where the leak is. I had a couple of little issues with the plastic 1/2 X 1/2 "L" bracket that connects to the hot water bypass. Initially I tried to just tighten it, but that made it leak more so I went down to my local...

Thank you all very much for the info. I think I'm going to buy two of the 2000 watt units with an external 6 gallon tank.

We are looking to get a generator and not sure which one to purchase. We have been looking at the Honda 2000 & 3000 watt units. Basically we want enough power to run the slides, a few lights and of course the coffee pot. Any suggestions would be great?

We have a 3055 too and were faced with the same issue of wanting to replace our recliners. We spent the better portion of 6 months trying to find something that was lightweight, comfortable and would easily fit in the back of the trailer with the slides in. We ended up buying some Ekornes...

Thanks for the replies! Have a great day, Devon

Does anyone know how long the fridge will run on LP not connected to shore power with the batteries only? I have two batteries in a BH with a standard fridge.

Hey Neville, I was wondering the same thing in regards to the slide mechanism not being centered. What I ended up doing was cutting the frame of the bed to literally fit around the slide brackets. It may not seem like much but it gave another 3" in the front, which makes it just a little...

We literally took out the entire king bed and cut it down to a queen. With a little help from a cabinet maker friend it was a pretty simple project. We started by taking off one side then running the entire bed through a table saw…put it back together, added some reinforcements and voila...

We had the same problem with our BH last year. It turned out the water was only leaking when the water was flowing. I would suggest you remove your access panel, turn on one of the sinks in the coach, climb in the basement with a flashlight until you see the problem. For us it was several...

We have a 3055. Great floor plan, easy to tow and very comfortable to live in. We have owned ours for about a year and have used it about 70 nights. We only had a few minor problems, which were quickly taken care of. Overall we love our unit and would most definitely buy another.

I have an 09 3055 and it weighs a little over 13k after I have it loaded up…but I will say I carry more stuff than most. The part that surprised me was the hitch weight. I weighed it when it was virtually empty and the scales registered almost 3k. I tow mine with a Dodge 2500 with the 5.9...

Thanks everyone for the information. I guess we’ll have to do some more research and perhaps sit on some other chairs before we purchase.

Hello, We have a 2009 3055 with the standard recliners, which is what came with the unit. We are looking to upgrade to the European leather recliners. Can anyone tell me the name of the company that Hertland uses for these chairs as we would like them to match the rest of the furniture...

We have a 2009 3055. I have pulled the tape out and measured it…with the rear latter it’s about 36’. Without the ladder you are right at 35’. Size was definitely a concern because we use ours in some pretty tight areas. I have found (if needed) we could park ours in most 30’ spots. The back...

W have a 2006 Dodge diesel short bed 2500 with airbags and a Jake Brake towing a Bighorn 3055 (34’) loaded to the hilt (near 14k on the scales with a 3k tongue weight) and it tows like a dream. Even with the one ton truck I would look into adding some airbags as they will make a huge...

In the past I have been a fan of WD40…that was until I cam across “Corrosion Block.” A boat dealer turned me on to this stuff for protecting various parts of my boat when it’s in saltwater. This stuff is awesome and found that it works great for locks. Doesn’t freeze, doesn’t conduct...

We have a 2009 3055 and no problems getting in the fridge with the slides in. The feature we found really helpful on the road is that we can stop to cook a meal without putting out any slides…which is really nice where space is limited.

I had the same problem as you the first time I hooked up my new fifth wheel. Make sure the kingpin is not sitting to high. I found it best to have the truck push the trailer up a little…well, actually the trucks suspension loads up so the trailers front landing jacks don’t lift up. Once this...

Thanks for the warm welcome. I inserted a couple of pics from the trip.

I know I have been told to never store or transport propane cylinders on their sides.

I have used the Sprint card for a number of years with good success in virtually every corner of the US. Even in rural areas areas I usually have enough strength to check emails, etc. The other nice thing about an air card vs. satellite is that your travel partner can actively check...

In mid-December we traded in the travel trailer and upgraded to a 2009 Bighorn 3055RL. Being my first 5th wheel and also somewhat new to the RV scene I was a little nervous about the operations. On December 26th we headed south into northern California's Wine Country to get out of the ungodly...
