Thank you all for your input. My family will be homesteaded so that my special needs child will not be moved around. I will be the only one full timing it due to the military lifestyle and my ever changing duty stations. I have 4 motorcycles that travel with me, and have given myself a budget of about $55k. I am currently deployed so at the time of purchase I will not be able to purchase/order it in person, Unfortunately I will need to have the unit ready as soon as I get home. Are there any things you all feel are must haves? I am currently leaning towards a torque with a 12' garage. Can you order one with a larger garage 14' or 18'?
Thank you for your assistance.
NH Ranger Joe,
Thank you for your clarification, That helps us understand the use model. I believe that the largest garage currently available is 12 foot and I do not believe that Heartland is in a position to special order a larger garage. I am going to assume, but ask you to clarify the types of Bikes the 4 bikes you want to carry are, that these are either sport or dirt bikes and not Harley dressers... Knowing what the make and model of the four bikes will help us understand both the space requirements and weight of the cargo.
as far as must haves - if you are going to be stationed in the Deep south, I would highly recommend the second AC unit, There is an option for a third but since you will be the only one living in the unit and the garage will be used for storage of the bikes not as living space - you could get by without the third. I would also opt for the Generator, and have a progressive EMS 50A Surge Protector ( hard wired ) as an absolute must. The EMS would need to be installed as an after market part as I do not believe that are an option from Heartland. Also as a great option, depending on the model you order - a fireplace heater is a great addition and saves on propane usage for taking the chill off the air.
I would also get the ARCTIC package, but as a minimum order the dual pane windows. Both will help with the extreme temps and internal comfort and heating/cooling costs.
I hope this helps, we are here to offer what ever advice and knowledge we can.
Are you originally from New Hampshire or does the NH stand for something else?
Thank you for your service
