2009 Big Horn 3580rl

[wrehfield]

I am looking at the 2009 Big Horn 3580rl and the salesman says 36 foot.
I cannot find any info on that, only on 38 foot 3580rl. Folks, please
enlighten me, any thing I should know would be appreciated. One thing
I don't understand is I can not find a sewer hose storage tube. Thank you
for all the info.

Hi Bill,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum and hopefully to the family. We have a great bunch of folks here with lots of information and all willing to share their knowledge when needed.

There is no storage tube on the units, but a lot of folks make one using the PVC post or pipe. Some also use the plastic storage bins. Looking at a picture of the off door side it looks like a small door under the water heater area that can be used as a sewer hose storage area.

The specs I saw listed it as 38' 8".

Be sure and check out our Heartland Owners Club. Join us at a rally when you can and meet lots of the great folks here and make friends for a lifetime.

Enjoy the forum.

Next to the water heater and furnace is a small compartment with a door. This is for storage of the sewer hoses. My old unit had this and I really liked it and wish they would have kept it on the newer models.

If you want to add a holder that looks like the stock ones on new trailers, you can buy this one (expandable to ensure perfect fit).

I'm in the process of adding this to my RV this weekend. I'll then have two carriers....one for main hose and one for hose to add extension (when needed)

If you have the small compartment that Gary mentioned, you can get a 15 ft. RhinoFlex in there, along with a 10 ft. extension, with their fittings. Got one on my '09 BH3670.
