We have found the little button on the side of the strip. We have pushed it in several times and nothing is happening.

Today hubby wanted to move 5er, put the rooms in, unplugged electric and went to wind up electric cord. We have no 12 volt power. Battery is charged. where do we find the reset button??????

We have brought our 2011 Big Horn to Florida for another winter. We rented a DVD today and can not make a picture come over the TV. The sound is coming though . We have gone though all the imputs and nothing. Are we missing something? Thanks, Barb

When we brought the big shade from the back window in the house and got the top rail off off it I could see where it had broke. It was between the top and the left side hole. I think I could have spliced or tied a piece of fish line between the two pieces of string and saved having to restring...

We did 2 off them last weekend, a little one and the big rear window. There are several treads if you do a search, I read them all, printed diagrams and did a computer search and there was a demo to watch. The restringing wasn't bad as I had a diagram to follow. I messed up and didn't cut my...

We have the same unit you do, I just looked and no rippling, but we don't travel with it very much. I decided to reply to this post because we found a bracket laying on the ground on both sides when we closed the slides to close up our seasonal site. They had rusted and just dropped off. Our...

We just restrung two of our shades, ugg. The first was a little one, the second was the big rear window. What a job. The screws were difficult to find as other had told us, two were in such a way couldn't just screw them out. I don't think we could have done it in the 5er, waited till we...

I have been following this debate since we brought our Bighorn home in July 2010. The first tread I read about the failures I went outside and looked at the tires, sure enough they were Towmax. We haven't changed them yet but will be before heading to Fl. this Jan. We have about 5000 miles on...

This may be a option for us also, I will look next weekend. We never use the day shade. We had mini blinds in our previous 5er, they were a real pain to clean but never had to repair them. I saw a new Big Country after we bought our Big Horn that had wide wooden blinds, I liked them. The...

Thank You everyone for your replies. We looked briefly at the blind before we left the lake Sunday. Bill said he could see screws. I will get the string and on a quiet peaceful (maybe rainy)day we will attack it. In the mean time the window looks like tobacco road.

The shade in the small window in our living room slide broke, The string sparated and half of the shade dropped. With the valance all around it we have no clue what to do. We don't see any screws or anything to remove the valance to get to the shade. Any ideas ? Thanks, Barb

We have had dish and directv and I think dish is more RV friendly. We changed to dish last year giving up cable and had directv ( many years) at our campsite 6 months a year. We purchaced a 211 reciever to keep in the camper so we wouldn't need to keep moving it. We went to Fl. for 6 weeks...

Thank You Parkit and SLKansas for your imput. The 2" memory foam on our bed now is not doing the trick, I wake up in the morning with a back ache and feel like I am in a hole. Maybe 4" would do the trick. I am a heavy woman 220ish and don't feel like the mattress is supporting properly. I...

Has anyone purchased the TheraGel Comfort System Mattress Camping World is selling?? If so are you happy with it. We now have the mattress that came in Our Bighorn with a 2" memory foam topper on it. That has been fine for weekend camping. This pass winter we took it to Fl. for 5 weeks...

Thanks Jim, Tried looking at the fuse box, that wasn't it, then switched one from the living room it worked so it must be the wires under the bed. Not going to tackle that until we are home. Again, thanks for the quick reply. Barb

Our bedroom reading lights are not working. They worked when we ended our season in the north, pulled it to Fl , neither one will light now. Hubby checked breakers, they are OK. He is wondering if there is a drawing as to which fuse operate each system. We have looked in obvious places and...

We have the 3185 and are very happy with it. We put a 2" memory foam topper on the mattress, the bottom sheet(fitted with deep pockets) would not stay under the mattress. I struggled with that for a year, tried the under mattress rubber suspender type clips (worked so so). I solved my problem...

Bringing rosia marina fruit salad

Like others have mentioned memory foam topper is what we have done. That said another problem presented, even deep pocket queen sheets pop up during the night. I have tried the under the mattress hooks someone mentioned in another tread, that worked for a few days but not great, plus they are...

Are any of you folks using the Five LBM Slim Line dish ???? WE have the old origianal dish and whould like to up grade. We don't travel alot but do occasionally. The spot we will likely go to in Flarida dosn't have cable so wonder how difficult the new dish would be to set up.

Past a beautiful Landmark on NY104 east of Rochester on Tuesday.

We also have a 2" memory foam topper. The 2011 Big Horn has a pillow top mattress so maybe it would have been OK but we had this in the previous 5er and brought it over to this one. Our first 5er the bed was so hard went to Walmart the very next day and bought a foam topper for it. Either the...

I like the booth because I like to sit in the middle when sitting at the table. Our last 5er had table and chairs. If the Landmark table and chair set up was a option and I had known about it may have went that route when we ordered. Yes it is roomy for the 2 of us, tight when someone else...

We ordered a dinette because the table and chairs were not comfortable. We have folding stools that store nicely under seat of dinette for when we have extra people. We have the center island, stools work great there also.

We used the replacement that camper world offers, fit on the mast perfectly.

Our 2011 Bighorn came with a Antenna Tec antenna, didn't bring in the HD signal very well. It kept pixalating One of the fellows in the campgrund added the wingman and he said it made a big differance. We ordered the new Winegard IV that has the wingman addition built in, replaced the Antenna...

We didn't get it and we are both a little sorry. We have a seasonal site in a co op campground and electric heaters are not allowed, we didn't want questions or finger pointing so opted not to get it. We have found that on cold nights the furnace blows to much heat in the bedroom, we replaced...

Congrats on your 3185, we also bought a 3185 this year. We took delivery first part of Aug., used it every weekend until mid Sept then traveled to a unoffical heartland get togather in Pa. brought it home and winterized it. I really like the floor plan. This is our 6th rig and 3ed 5er but the...

Thank You nice pictures. We are looking forward to our spring trip. I have been looking at Myrtle Beach Travel Park as a possibility for our 3 weeks in Myrdle Beach. Looks like it has more for the older set. They have water aerobic 5 mornings, organized bike rides after noons, some soup and...

Today I was going though a box of old photos, didn't throw away any, just looked at them. I got thinking about what it would take to go full time. We are not ready for that now but when we bought this rig we used that as a bargaining chip to justify buying it. All my collections, figurines...

Terry and Renee I think I am leaning towards Ocean Lakes. We have only been to Myrtle beach 3 times. First time was over thirty years ago, we took our last family vaction in our first camper. It was a 13 ft. truck camper on a 350 Ford truck. We had 1 kid in collage, 1 in high school and 1...

If you have not ordered your unit yet I would ask about the unpublished options. I read about that list on here and wished I had been able to see what else could have been ordered. I.E. the Goodyear 614 tires, maybe heavier axles etc. We love our BH, good luck with what ever you decide. PS my...

It was my understanding that the King of the Mountain package was forced options. The sheet we got had everything listed in a box that had to be ordered with the Big Horn.

JohnDar, I think I like your towel hanger better than the one I have. I will give that some thought over the winter. The way I am doing it they don't dry a quick as I would like. We are weekenders so hasn't been a problem I will see how it goes this coming winter when will will be using it...

Great sounds like you had a great weekend. I will be making our first visit to your state this April for the eastern regional rally. We have traveled down I-95 to Florida several times but all you see is trees on that route. Tentatively we plan to leave here around March 25th and go to Myrtle...

Ours came in the medicine cabinet like others have said., threw them out, cheap light weight plastic. I keep the TP in the base cabinut directly across from the toilet, we have the all in one bath. Our problem was no towel holders and NO place to put them except directly behind the toilet...

We also had no issues on the trip home. The colors are almost prime here in NY. We have the 5er unloaded for the winter, Bill will winterize next day or so. We had our first frost while we were in Pa. This was our first Heartland event, we met great people and look forward to another get...

Thank You for the info. I think we will order one for the living room slide as that seems to be the one that collects the most as it is the widest.

Bill (husband) thinks he may bring the slides in when we leave every week. If we leave them out and it rains and then dries it stains. He has to go up on roof and scrub it. Maybe we will get 6" drain pile for all of them. We have one and that wasn't a perfect solution but helped.

We have had our new 3185 RL with 3 slides all with the covers about 2 months now. Everything has been going very well, no problems except water collecting in the covers during rain. The first weekend we had it heavy rain was forecast so went and purchased 6" children s balls and put under LR...
