skullpainter · Mar 30, 2014

Can anyone tell me if this is a worthwile option ,the trailor will be built and i have included this in the options.I hope this is not overkill for a 3010 cyclone,I'm sure its a nice option but it is also pretty expensive.Any help greatly appreciated.The option can be deleted at this early stage

Your right about it being an expensive option.
But if it's within your budget you wont regret having it.
I have been using it for nearly four years and love it.

Peace
Dave

You can not go wrong with the auto level. I think 99% of us with this option would agree on that. The first time you don't have it and are on an unlevel side to side site and the guy next to you does have it, you'll wish you did. Just my opinion.

Ditto, not only the ease of setup, it is also better for my slides as everything is level, less binding. Heart option if you can afford it upfront, could have better resale so not a total loss.

Thankyou Gary,getting all good reviews on the leveling system

Thankyou Gus,think its a keeper

You can't go wrong. You'll love it. We have it on our Cyclone.
If you would really like to spoil yourself and can afford another option, add a hand held remote control. You can control the front landing gear, awning, sliders and outside light. Doesn't hurt to ask. I believe it comes standard with the new Bighorns.

thankyou Dave,sounds good

We've had Levelup added to our Bighorn in 2009...when we ordered the Landmark in December 2012...it was the FIRST option checked off!! Never be without it again, and have never had a problem with either unit's system!

This sounds like a great option, but I'm afraid price would be a hold back..Especially here in Montana..The places here are really expensive ..Norm& Pick Leeper

Hi PickNorm,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum and thanks for joining in the discussion.

If you want to save some money, you can go with the self installed electric leveling system.

We had sticker shock over 6 pt as well. We love it. Push a button and watch the 5er level itself. This is a luxury. Hopefully it will pay forward at sell time. Plus, built in tire jack IF you have tire trouble. 6 pt will lift all axles off ground or just one side. you won't regret it if you can afford it. We also added slide toppers. Very nice option, dealer installed toppers.

It is considerably cheaper to have it installed when the unit is built than it is aftermarket. I had it installed as an option and then saw the after market costs in other threads on this forum. Scary.

Can't say I know a lot about them but I had a sales consultant at a dealership speak negatively about them-He said they work great on level ground but the shafts are small in diameter and tend to flex and put pressure on the orings which then leak. He actually took me over to a rig with it and pointed to the bottom of the jack and show me the hydraulic fluid on the ground. For that kind of money I will do without!!

Majestic · Jul 18, 2014

I would argue that statement, i have had mine fully extended on one side, nose almost on the ground, never had a problem, second rig with them, a must on any unit i own

This is a super valuable option even if you do not use the "automatic" feature... I would even leave off some other features to get this one!

That so called sales consultant sold you a bottle of snake oil. The systems rarely leak and they work great on uneven sites. I would never buy a rig without it.

On a relatively level site, it takes all of a minute once I press "auto level". Only had one problem at a site that was not very level, but a few 2x6's took care of the problem. Would never purchase an RV without it.
