    Cyclone Power Ramp door...?

    We ordered it on our 2812 also, it worked great but I don't think it would work well on the patio doors. Pulling from the one side caused a lot of torquing in the hinge when opening or closing. One on each side maybe but then how could you synchronize them.

    Please add leveling for Fifth Wheels also

    Thanks Gents, I really was spoiled by my 2812, I'm kicking myself for selling. I do want to say thanks to HL we loved it for 3 1/2 years and sold it for 82% of the original purchase price including sales tax. Routine maint, yes but nothing broke. The Ground Control was on my list but would...

    Please add leveling for Fifth Wheels also

    Hi all, Sold my Cyclone (massive withdrawals), time for a dedicated Fiver. We both really like the 2880 RLT floorplan it's the perfect size for us. I wish there was enough market for a 32' full profile. Since I don't have a VIN number any more I cant post to ask the factory so here goes. Why is...

    Boondocking @ Johnson Valley 2014 4018

    Does the rockcrawler ride in the Cyclone? What do you have? My son and I built an 87 YJ with a Cummins 4BTA in it among a ton of other stuff. Nothing but fun.

    Cyclone Carrying Capacity

    Another funny twist, my 2812 has 4540 lbs of CCC and I haul a 21 lb. wheelchair and a 42 lb. magnesium framed handcycle.

    Upgraded running gear

    Tony, Your work is what got me thinking about this. How many folks have complained about braking power with the big units? How about trim falling off due to ride quality? 35 years in aviation I totally understand Wt & Balance scenarios, it just strikes me funny that a premium product like a...

    Upgraded running gear

    Just saw your creating another "big twin" as I call them, 35' + unit on 2 axles. Why cant the Cyclones have an 8K / shocks and Goodyear G614 running gear package option like Landmark and Bighorn? I feel that counting on pin weight to make the numbers work concept lends cheapness to an otherwise...

    2812 going away??

    I love my 2011 2812 a few tweaks design wise and a foot in the bathroom length wise with a nicer shower and it would kill the other short haulers.

    A couple more fun ones

    It's a real plane, I just thought it was a fun picture as the Cyclone looked small. But it is the 2812. Great story, second flight in a previous X in 1997 we were going from Dallas to White Plains, one of the great things about the X is that FL 430 to 470 are real working altitudes for the...

    A couple more fun ones

    Please don't think I'm trying to show off, I have access to the hangar because I ran the Flt Dept. for 26 years before PPMS reared it's ugly head. The low angles of the pictures are from them being taken from my wheelchair, the Cyclone was also at the hangar to have Elkhart Tool and Die quad...

    A couple more fun ones

    Well the Cyclone came down to the airport to get a bath with DI water, gotta love having great tools. The F350 actually sits quite nicely with the 2812 the angle makes it look to be sagging. After the bath it spent the weekend drip drying with it's buddy.

    We removed them from our 2812 and like it. Please note that a razor or scraper will scratch the bronze coating on the windows. We used heat gun, mineral spirits, patience, a lot of patience. Let me say when there is a graphics issue it's probably is not adhesive related as it's tenacious. It...

    Considering ST235/85R tires for my Cyclone 3950

    Re: ATF: Cyclone - 85R tires i replaced my Towmax with Toyo HT with Tuff Duty load e LTs and could not be happier, The Cyclone is much more settled towing and tracks like it's on rails. 220.00 per tire at Les Schwab.

    30 amp to 50 amp

    We have a 2812 and it's perfect for us. The 100 gal of fresh is not as much of an issue as the Grey of 46. I live in Ca and was not impressed with the way the Stealth's are screwed together compared to the 2812. The single 15 handles the smaller size of the 2812 pretty well with a Fantastic fan...

    Questions about the Cyclone 2812

    Craigud, We have 2011 2812 and love it. The grey tank could be a little small for 6 boon docking. Ours has been excellent after a couple dealer fixed issues. i towed mine with a 2001 F250 with bags no issues. I now have 2011 F350 SRW and they're perfect together. My unit is loaded and it...

    Looking at a 3010 Toy Hauler- have questions

    I have a 2812 and a 2011 F350 with a Reese 18K slider that has never been moved. I have had it cranked a couple times but you just have to remember to take a quick look. If you do a lot of uneven ground work it's probably worth it. BTW the 6.7 Powerstroke and truck you just get in and drive, no...

    truck comparisons

    I think that GM discovered that what we in aviation call the "Critical Altitude" of the turbo used in the Super Duty is probably about 9000 ft. Meaning it can't produce full boost above that altitude. I'm sure it was a tradeoff for some facet of performance at lower altitudes. It would also bias...

    New 2010 2812

    My 2011 has been great, a couple little things I did myself. We used it 3 weeks across country from a dealer pickup in the Midwest. The only thing of any import is I think I have a vent issue with the grey water, when it shows about 3/4 on the indicator the bathroom sink will start bubbling...

    new owner of Cyclone 2810

    Hi Kerry, I have an 2011 2810 as well. The forward handle is grey and the aft black. The slider is cable and I think the factory needs to supply instructions for this unit. I think it is a BAL Accu slide mechanism and found great manuals on their site. They talk about a flex cable for a drill...

    Ladder rub

    Hi to all, Looked at my 2812 and it has about 1/2" clearance on the forward tube. I think the issue is with the placement of the pedestal on the roof itself seems it would be real easy to get it off a 1/2" and bingo the forward tube would chafe the roof. Scott, thanks for the heads up about...

    Ladder rub

    Definitely have to check my 2812, thanks for the heads up. Are any of you in Nor Cal and who are you using for service? Don't have any issues worth a dealer trip but I was wondering who in the area does Heartland warranty. Thanks Mark

    Cyclone 2812 loft

    Hi Kerry, The loft isn't marked for weight but it seems pretty sturdy on mine. I would not have any problem putting a total of 100 pounds up there. It's nicely lit but there aren't any tie downs up there, there is a lip going all around and a net in the back to keep things up there. We have not...

    New Bed/Bench

    Hi to all, especially Mike, thanks for changing the trim piece in the bedroom. The bride and I are on the way home from Holman's with the new 2810 and having a ball. Should take another 10 days or so via Black Hills and Yellowstone :-). We have the new style beds and to answer a couple of...

    A couple of questions about my new 2812

    Mike, Checked out the picture and really like the new graphics. Since i have the power ramp option I still have the pull down screen as well? If not I would like to ask that the loose screen be put in my unit so I can engineer a solution as my wife really wants to have the screen. Thank for...

    A couple of questions about my new 2812

    Hi Mike, I have a 2812 on order through Holmans, you may remember we talked about a month ago. I noticed that the 2011 Cyclones I have seen online have a Dometic 310 toilet. Will mine have that or if it has not been built can I request that toilet? I was going to have Holmans put one in upon...
