    Cargo capacities

    I know there is a demand for folks that what to be able to haul thier Jeeps or other vehicles yet the only way is to have a Motorhome and tow. Why would you want to have a 18 ft garage if you can't load a 4,000 lb car? I bet there are more people that want this capibility than just more space...

    Cargo capacities

    Why are the cargo capacities not listed? I'm interested also in the new 3418 yet no info on weights. With a 18 ft. garage I am hoping it will have a nice size capacity. I tried calling the factory...talked to an engineer...he knew nothing!

    Ceiling speakers

    We have a 2011 3950 and all of our Jensen ceiling speakers have a terrible crackling noise while watching a DVD, especially during a strong bass event. Is this just the nature of the beast? I checked and we are at 0 settings on the bass so it is not a case of excess bass. Any suggestions? We...

    Garage Capacity

    Jim, Reckon that's what I'll have to do. I would think this would have a lot of owners wondering the say thing. Especially the way there seems to be so many discussions over weight capiblities. I posted this same question on the "ASK THE FACTORY" thread but still no reply. -Jerry

    Garage Capacity

    That's the whole question. Just what exactly I can put back there. 500 lbs is a lot of weight. One of our members hauls a Smart car. Maybe a dune buggy who knows. The point here is what is the rated load. Like I posted, the new brochures are stating 3,000 lbs. for 3 axles. I have 3 axles but...

    Garage Capacity

    I was just reviewing the new online brochure for the Cyclones. It now states that the garage capicity for 2 axle is 2500# & 3000# for 3 axles. Does that mean that my 2011 3950 is now rated @ 3000#? Has anything changed to give this higher rating? My factory info states 2500 max. load. What's the...

    3950 towing question

    Jay, When I bought my 2011 3950 I had a 2006 F250 Powerstroke. It pulled fine but I was very nervous because I new I was way over weight. I added air bags to level the bed. Then I decided for safety reasons to buy a 2011 Silverado Dually. (Duramax). All I can say is WOW! Love the truck and the...

    Warped table tops

    I also have the exact problem with my table. 2011 3950 Full Throttle Edition. It was warped from just being stored in the position the factory stores them. Bought mine in Sept. 2010 but took delivery in Oct. Either way out of factory warranty. I did purchase a 7 yr. Star RV extended warranty...

    Towing Problems 3800 Cyclone

    I pull a 2011 3950 with a 2011 Silverado 3500 HD Dually. Rough bucking & chucking....until...I installed an AirSafe hitch. BIG difference. Just back back from a trip using it and am very satisfied with the change it made in the ride.

    Garage Thermostat

    How's it work? There is only one heat duct coming in. When the furnace is running there is air coming out. What does the thermostat above the door heading out the garage work? I just called Heartland and the guy said "Good question, I'll have to get back to you". I don't understand what it is...

    That red light switch

    I spoke to a Heartland customer service guy today and he said not to have both gas & electric on at the same time.

    That red light switch

    Do you notice any savings on propane by having both on? How much longer does it normally take for the electric to reheat vs the gas?

    That red light switch

    Thank you! Great answer. So if I have the electric and gas on at the same time, does that mean the electric maintains the temp until water is used and then the gas kicks in?

    That red light switch

    I have a 2011 3950 that I'm taking on the road for the first time next week. Picked it up last Oct. and can't remember what the young man told me this red switch located under the TV in the kitchen was for. My first quess is the water heater but then I have that on the main control console by...

    How well does it track?

    It's not my driving skills but just how much room is needed to maneuver around. My last fithwheel was only 27 foot long and I drug it all over without a concern. This one is 40 ft. I was looking for others opions that have these triple axle trailers and if they find them tricky or do they track...

    How well does it track?

    I purchased a 2011 3950 back in Oct. Only drove it down the interstate and about 2 miles off the main hwy to my house where it has been parked. Now it's about camping time! Boy that's a long trailer. How does it track or say maneuver thru traffic, turning at intersections? My biggest fear is...

    Thanks Mike. This is Jerry. You took Gayle and I on a factory tour. We were on our way home from our vacation in SD. I'll have to check this out when I get home. Is it a visible mounting bracket?

    How to mount TV in garage

    I'm a new owner to a 2011 3950. I'm wondering how (what type of hardware) and where on the side wall I can mount a pivoting TV wall mount. I want it to go on the side wall next to the cable connection. I'm just not sure how to secure solidly to the wall.
