Today we traded our MPG 186 in on a 23RBK Gulfstream Visa. The MPG is a good little trailer, but it is just that, little. Wanted to move up to the Edge M-22, but our Heartland dealer was so far off on what they offered us in trade-in there was no way we could go with the Edge. $4,000 is a lot of...

Anyone need or want a MPG 186 let me know in the next couple of days. Ours is for sale for $13000. Like new, used two trips. Fenders painted to match stripes.

We purchased a new T/V yesterday. A left over 2010 Nissan Titian crew cab. I really did not care too much for the fire engine red paint job, but for the $7,500 discount we received, I would have taken it painted like a zebra. It did not come with the factory hitch so they threw one of those in...

A. A piece of Lexan cut to size. B. A state map set. C. Suction cups, 3. D. Hole drilled to attach suction cups. E. Map outline applied to Lexon. F. States applied to base map. Modeled on side of truck with bottom suction cup not used. Attach to side on MPG when you reach your campsite. Don't...

Since this was recently brought up, I'll post this. Until Jan 02, Camping World has electric 3K tongue jacks on sale for $160, and scissors jacks or sway control bars for $50. I think I will pass the electric jack deal to my wife to put on her "What do they want for Christmas list".:angel:

Add a wall thermostat for the air-con. Put stabilizing jacks on the front. Add speakers in the front so the TV can be heard over the noise of the A/C.

Removed fenders and had them painted to match our truck.

If you are thinking of installing a heat strip in your Dometic, A/C, DO NOT. I just had one installed and picked it up yesterday. Another member took his to his dealer to have the heat strip installed and they refused, stating that Dometic had declared it a fire hazard. I just finished speaking...

I know that by pulling the wheel center caps off. it exposes the Zerk fitting for the bearings. My question is, "Will regular wheel bearing grease work or is there a special kind of grease needed? On my boat trailer I would always give each side one pump each before taking it on the road. Many...

Has anyone used their MPG shower yet? Looking at the walls and medicine cabinet makes me wonder if it is safe to get it wet. We have the curtain to protect the door, but that is only the door. I am not sure what the walls are made of and how well they are sealed, but the medicine cabinet looks...

On the air con controls there is a position that says "heat". Is there a built in heat strip or is it something that needs to be added? If it needs to be added, this would be a good time as it is at the dealer for some minor service work. We don't need a lot of heat down here in S. Texas.

Was getting ready to take my 186/183 to the dealer to get the slide adjusted and a few other minor details taken care of. The dog-gone slide would not come back in. Right below the fridge there is a panel with two screws on top. Remove the screws and remove the panel by pulling it straight out...

Just returned from a 1900 mile trip. The slide does not close all the way at the top. No trouble with leaks, but the thing flopping in and out got to be a nerve wracking event as I could see the whole thing falling out on the interstate. The morning we left for the final leg home, my oldest son...

Left Houston last Thursday, made it to Monroe LA. .second night we spent in Gadsden AL at Noccalula Falls. Third night finds us in Sevierville TN. Back to Texas this Sunday. Towing: TV a 2010 Nissan Frontier with the 4.0 V-6 No WDH or sway bar. Feel none needed at this time. Getting about 13.5...

Three, maybe four different problems so far on our 186. Every single lock on the storage doors is almost impossible to get unlocked. All feel as if someone had stuck a small screwdriver in the key hole trying to force them open. One key goes in a a 10 degree angle. Another problem was when I...

We picked up our MPG 186 today. We're ready to hit the trail.

Went down today and made our deposit on a new MPG186. Only option I opted for was a Maxx-Air vent cover over the bathroom vent. Too hot with too many sudden thunderstorms to keep the vent open at all times. They are to check it out, make a couple on minor repairs, and purge and gas it up, along...

Got the issues ironed out with my local dealer. If all goes well, will purchase our 186 tomorrow. Could have gotten it cheaper from a discount dealer but a couple of things made the deal. The discount from the discount dealer was only the freight fee knocked off. That still left me spending a...

The wife and I finally got a day off together and went down to our local dealer to put the eyeball on a MPG 186 (183). We spent all of 1 minute in the thing as it was unbearably hot in the camper. We had called the salesman before leaving home telling him we were coming to visit. He didn't open...

The first thing I want to say is that this is not intended to bash another company, but to say that Heartland got it right. The wife and I have been ping-ponging between the MPG and the R-Pod. Without all the technical jargon, any trailer over a certain size must meet certain lighting...

My local Houston dealer has a red stripe MPG for sale. They are listing it as a model 186, of which I haven't found on any web site anywhere. It looks all the world like a 183 to me. Slide, two bunks beds in the rear and dinette table up front. In the rear in front of the bunk beds is the half...
