Hi All -- I am attaching solar panels to a Sundance RLB3300. I have read some people use #10+ 1" screws, others use Well-Nuts, and I am sure there are other choices. Any recommendations?

Hi Heartland -- my dealer is recommending a bolt-on 2" receiver for the rear bumper that I can connect a bike rack to (that they also sale) for 4 bikes. Is this a reasonable approach -- I don't want to risk damage to the frame. Sorry, I don't have the VIN of the 5th wheel with me but can...

Hi All -- about two hours into our trip to visit friends in NM and then onto the Sand Dunes, I noticed in my rear view mirror one wheel was kicked out at the bottom -- running slanted. I slowed down to a crawl until we could find a safe place to get off the highway. The wheel dropped about 50...

I was pulling my Sundance through town recently. I stopped at a light, waiting to turn left. When the light changed, it felt like the truck was sluggish to get started. As I made the left turn, I noticed a smoke cloud from a left tire on the Sundance. It stopped smoking almost when I...

We started using the sofa bed air mattress in our 3300RLB Sundance. It won't hold air through the night. I brought the mattress home last weekend when we stored the Sundance. I found two leaks at a seam. Unfortunately, I did not think to look for the warranty info, which is still in the...

The shower in our Sundance changes from hot to cold as the water pump cycles on and off. If the pump would stay on during a shower, I suspect the temperature would remain the same. I have an Oxygenics shower head, but it does the same thing even with this removed. Anyone have this problem and...

Our first two trips in our Sundance were both over 1500 miles and we have another one coming in July (family reunion). After the second trip, I decided to look into solutions to ease the chucking we felt in the truck when we drove over the frequent crack or expansion joint. With help from...

We had our Sundance out for its 3rd trip since we got it -- nice weekend of camping in a gorgeous campground south of Colorado Springs, CO (Mountaindale -- http://mountaindalecampground.com/ -- higlhy recommended, David is the manager and very professional). When it was time to tear down and...

OK, my fault -- left on our first trip in the the Sundance and forgot the owner's manual at home on the nightstand:eek: So far I have remembered many things from the walkthrough, but one has me stumped. The monitor console that shows tank and battery levels has 3 switches on it: Test, Pump...

We are on the maiden voyage with our Sundance. The foot lever on the toilet no longer opens the black rubber valve at the bottom of the toilet. We would like a toilet that works -- it could get rather messy otherwise, especially with the kids! It was working -- now nothing. It feels like the...

I took my Sundance 3300RLB out of storage over the weekend and will be taking it on a trip this weekend -- first one with the family. I need Internet for work and I need to work on the trip, so I made my first mod with some pointers from this forum. I purchased a wireless router, 3db amp, and...

Hi Everyone -- we had a few posts last month regarding water pipes that froze. I saw mention of insulating the water pipes that run under the floor. To do this, do I remove the corrugated insulation that's attached to the bottom of the frame and use the foam pipe insulation available from the...

We love our new 3300RLB -- anxious to use it more since we just got it. We did quickly learn that if we park someplace where we can't extend the dining area slide, the door to the loft room can't be opened -- the slide blocks the door. Instead, the door could easily be moved 18" so it could...

I want to remove a few of the decals on my new Sundance so I can put on custom decals related to my business. I so another post (thanks Alan!) that Vinyl-Off is good at removing vinyl decals. Has anyone removed a decal and how did you do it safely? I don't want to damage the underlying...

I am considering buying a 5th Wheel cover and these options look good. The first two are about the same cost and the last is half the cost: - Coverking, which uses a 600 denier woven polyester (http://www.coverkingcarcovers.com/Coverking-RV-Covers.html) - National Discount Covers Goldine...

I just returned from picking up my Sundance 3300 RLB – a good thousand mile drive to break in the tow vehicle and the Sundance. Many cracks in the road (especially on concrete highways) caused the truck to propose/chuck/rock. I never felt out of control, but it is noticeable. I have rear...

I am trying to find the sizes of sheets that work well for the (1) loft bed, (2) sofa air-bed, and (3) "queen" bed in the Sundance 3300RLB (the model with the loft in the back). I have not picked up the unit yet but while I am doing that my wife is shopping for items we need. If you know the...

Hi Everyone -- I have found much value in this forum over the last several months as my family has been considering a Heartland 5th-wheel -- thank you all. As of today, we are the happy owners of a Sundance 3300RLB. The floorplan works well for our family and I expect it will bring years of...

Hi Everyone -- we have been thinking about a Heartland 5th wheel for a while but decided to wait until Spring 2010 to take the plunge because we had missed our warm season to really enjoy it. However, there are few good deals on lots now. I don't know if dealers will be as eager to make such...

I want to get a GPS that I can switch between vehicles if needed that also will double as a rear camera display. A few GPS units, such as Garmin's StreetPilot 7200, has a video input for this purpose. The 7200 looks like it would work, but there appear to be several models to consider. Any...

Hi -- I'm looking at a 3300RLB 2010. Is the axle load rating always 6000lbs, or is this an option over the minimum. I believe it was less for 2009 and I want to make sure I'm not confused. Thanks

Hi Everyone, While I am in Colorado, the 3300RLB Sundance unit that is most interesting to me is in Toledo, OH at All American Coach. After reading a few forums posts, it appears that several owners have purchased from another state. Does anyone have experience with All American Coach or have...

Hi Everyone -- I am new to the forum and rather new to considering a Heartland Sundance. I was very close to purchasing a Titanium with a loft, but the lower price and what looks like reasonable build quality of the Sundance is appealing. Plus, the RLB floorplan would work well for our family...
