Hmmm. I wish I had been on this earlier. We apparently hit something and blew a tire on our NT. Okay, we were told there is no way we can know if we just had a blow out or we hit something. Now after reading these posts... I wonder. We had NO IDEA, and by the time someone stopped us and...

Wow, I've heard some real horror stories about buying things from Harbor Freight. We are sooooooooo no mechanically minded, I'd probably run like crazy the other way. The price is so much better though.

Cool. Funny that my RV mechanic just mentioned where one is close by... Thanks! I will.

Thanks! I will check them out!

Sorry! Tongue Jack... for our North Trail 21FBS. I thought what I said about Larry having to hitch and unhitch that it was clear. I'll be more careful.

Thanks, Dan... I sooooooooo need to find a used electric jack, as apparently they start at over $200 to purchase. I wanted one for my husband for our 35th anniversary, but since it is on Monday, I'm gonna be late. He's a school teacher, retiring in May (yay!!), so have to be careful with the...

NEXT QUESTION to Peter or James or whomever: Here is what I found as an alternate to the fastway jack deal: http://www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Ultra-Fab-Products/UF17-940007.html http://www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Atwood/274600.html...

Peter... couple of things. I'm glad you mentioned the chock not working for you. They sell an XL one and they specifically list our North Trail ... up to 30" width between tires. I'm going for it. SOOOOO easy compared to the BAL Xtended. and cheaper! Also, on the Fastway Flip thing.. :D...

Peter, The XTENDED BAL CHOCKS fit our wide trax wheels. I will check on this new one, and see what the width maximum is.

To a Carl Edwards or Roush Fenway Racing fan, ONE Jr. flag is too many. :)

Wow. Thanks to both of you. Where did you find the BAL chock so cheap? This one was under $48 shpd! Also, which solid stand did you buy?

I FORGOT TO PUT THE LINK HERE FOR THE CHOCK. I WILL BUT..... FIRST ABOUT THE JACK. DID YOU LOOK A THE VIDEO? the video shows just the round jack... i think like ours. here is the short video: http://youtu.be/GavmYlmL5lY and the chock i was asking you to check out is here...

THANKS, JAMES AND JNV!!!!! I wonder if it would help to call them first? I LOVE this!!! Also, what do you think of this? Trying to cut expenses and not buy the BAL xtended chock lock thing. :) I love this, and it can be locked by putting a padlock through the hole when locked down. What...

We have a GEM of an RV mechanic. He's a genius. I WILL take photos when I get to the camper. I so hated that door being open all the time and partially blocking the TV. I love that he also made a strap that snaps to lock the door open when we travel. We have a little Yorkie that we have...

Does anyone know the answer to this? I so want to order this item, and I have to know if our jack size is 2" or 2 1/4" OUR NORTH TRAIL 21FBS IS IN STORAGE!! Will need to order now to receive before our camping trip. Here's what I"m ordering.... direct link...

Not a pocket... but in the space where the useless shelves were in the bathroom. LOVE IT!

Hey, I know there is no chance anyone will be up... and certainly not one who has a North Trail like mine... JAMES, WHERE ARE YOU??? :) But, I need to know the size of the Jack on our camper! I'm trying to place an order. I have to choose either a 2" or a 2 1/4" size...

WOW, TeJay! Thanks for all the info. We are back & forth between Memphis & Forrest City, AR. Looks like we need to drain the lines, once we get close to freezing. Frustrating, as I DID put a lot of weight on the insulation features. Thanks again!

ALL of ours popped out. Call to Heartland : dealer will glue. LEFT it. Next day, happened again. Maddening when fixes aren't done right!

Mine, too. Worry about sponge -like feel.

James! Next time, call or message me!!!! It would be nice to get to put in some PAYBACK time in return for you being my private camper guru! Now that we aren't going to every weekend NASCAR race, I can stop and help YOU anytime! BTW... There are soooooooo many things wrong with my FBS21...

Duhhhhhhhhhhhhh. The "R" in the number. I DID know that once... but certainly forgot it. Probably because all we every buy on our vehicles are radials. thanks for the heads up.

Hmmmmm. I wonder how many times I've made this mistake. I just got notice of this post, and automatically hit REPLY. I wrote the entire message and was ready to SEND when I realized you can't reply to those notices. Grrrrrrrrr. You'd think i would remember that by now! Borgx --- I think I...

Guess we are part of your family now! We also bought a 2011 NT21FBS. Only we aren't doing so well with the maneuvering of it. Actually, we only drove it from the dealer to the storage place. Oh, and we got gas and stopped for dinner along the way. We are soooooo bad with the Wide Trax...

Re: Specs/measurements on Heatland slide outs Wow! Ryan said they don't know the specs on any of their slide rooms! I'm amazed! oh well.

Brian, thanks!!! Just what needed know. Curious though... are you familiar with the SOKIII? Wondered if it's worth the extra money. Unless I'm missing something, the only difference I see is that it's prettier, and maybe better aluminum? We plan to keep our camper for a long time but...

Will do, Ray... Jim, I like that when you break down with the Good Sam Club policy, you call them the minute you break down. you tell me where you are and what's wrong and they coordinate all of the repairs. I believe that will make pre approval much easier. thanks for the reminder though...

Ray, thanks for the 2nd name. I will compare the Carefree I found to the AS. I wish we didn't need one! Who invented sweet gum trees anyway? When I get it out of storage in a few days, I have to park it at end of our driveway (covenants). That's under huge literally 50' tall) sappy trees...

There is an optional tire warranty that seems high. But we hAve no idea what the cost of trailer tires would be... and no idea how often people have trouble with them. Thanks for any constructive comments. ;) A.

Honestly, have you guys who are so dead set against extended warranties even read then lately? Here is the info on the one we're purchasing. It's the standard Good Sam CLub warranty. its an exclusionary policy. I'm impressed! Coverage applies only to the component groups listed herein...

Re: Specs/measurements on Heatland slide outs Thanks! Will do that now!

Okay, two fold question: 1. What are the benefits, cost differences, etc. between getting an awning installed over the slide out versus a topper? Am I correct to assume the awning is not automatic, and can get torn up during storms when you might need it the most for slide out roof...

I'm not sure this is the correct place to ask; hope so. My new TT is in storage, so I can't measure it! I've looked all over the internet, and nowhere can I find the SIZE of the slide out on our new 2011 North Trail 21FBS. I would like to go ahead and order the Slide out topper, and have...

Guess I'll go over to the Good Sam Club forums. They are much more active, and people seem to be just standing by, ready to help. I never get things like THERE IS A SUCKER BORN EVERY MINUTE. FYI, there are people on this planet that are not mechanically-minded. We are also often TRAVELING...

Hello! I'm new to the forum, but have been here long enough to see what a gold mine it is. I've already posted about a dozen times. Not only are we newbies here, but we are very much newbies to camping. We started with a new MPG and just traded last week for a North Trail 21FBS. What a...

That's good to know. When we traded our MPG in last weekend, it was stuck like that, scanning. I will know now what to do if the one in the North Trail does it. I so wish they would recall all of them and offer a replacement! Our new one quit working on day 2, but was fine the other 2 days...

This radio IS junk. The one on our MPG was terrible! First worked only with the remote... then it wouldn't work at all... remote or not. Heartland replaced it, and it worked for a few days. Then it just went ballistic. Spinning wildly through channels... what a disaster. When we decided to...

A late reply, but we know and LOVE Trevor. He's just the best kid out there. And put him with Ricky Stenhouse, Jr., and they are a riot. Have you seen their website, Ricky vs Trevor? So funny. If this is where Nascar is going... it's gonna be great...

Great to see the Nascar fans... and I say GO FORD RACING! We always drove Toyotas, Acuras, Lexus. But we love our Lincoln Navigator. Yes, we bought it cuz we wanted to drive a FORD! Go, RFR! And BTW, Nashville was a great race last weekend!

I've looked at both... printed and marked the things that are the same. Both are exclusionary, but one is more direct in description. The good thing about the Good Sam is that every single item starts with {paraphrasing}, "... All parts installed by the manufacturer are covered EXCEPT..."...
