If you don't mind the Patina, that one at Stalcup is a steal with all those upgrades. When we looked it was between the Patina and Camel and we came up with the Camel. We bought off the lot and it had many upgrades. We really didn't think we needed or wanted them all but we're sure glad we got them.

If I did not like the color but the price was great I just might peel off the color I did not like and put on a different color.

My Options Recommendations
If you can come up with the extra funds, and are ordering a unit to be built at the factory, I would strongly recommend upgrading the pinbox and suspension/brakes. Here is my list in order of preference:
1) MorRide or Airborne Pinbox
2)MorRide Center Point or Independent Suspension System
3) Hydraulic Disk Brakes
I believe Lippert/MorRide can do this while the stock frame is being built in their plant.
BTW, there is an area on this website on Bighorn modifications in which people have easily built small bedside shelves. Or, use the search function on the website.

Please make sure of the bedroom front closet/dresser area. I think in the 10's they changed this to make the washer/dryer North/ South accessible instead of thru the closet. Great if you plan on a W/D but bad if you wanted to keep the dresser and overhead the same as seen in the earlier units and brochure. I recall some sad faces when this change was made and ordered units were not what was depicted. But there are some things that come changed from H/L that are great improvements such as the front door closet/cabinet that was added on a line change.

yes. there is a plug under neath the cabinet, not on the wall but under the cabinet. There is also one inside the cabinet for the micro/convection oven.
The set up in my 2010 3670 has the w/d in the closet on the starboard side. I believe it is intended for the front of the w/d to face towards the door rather than having it face to the port side of the closet. Confused? I am.
Anyway, we found that a small chest freezer was of better use than a w/d. so that is what we have, a small chest freezer.
Rick/Debbie,
Yes, In our 09' 3670 the w/d are designed to point to the port side, not back towards the bedroom. To do this arrangment they had to take away the farthest forward dresser drawers and overhead cupboard, which I beleive upset some people that saw the 09's and ordered one and when delivered they were missing the extra cabinets they saw in the 09's.OPPS We use the area the same as you do, for a small AC/DC Fridge/freeze. Works out great!!
Happy New Year

more questions.....
Thank you all for your input. This forum has been extremely helpful. Unfortunately we are still waffling about the colour choice. We see that Heartland has introduced a new colour Truffle but don't like the couch. We had sortof settled on the Godiva if we could have a cloth couch in place of the leather, or have cloth recliners in place of the leather but aparantly we can't. So back to the photos on the net and now think the Saddle will be the next choice....with the cherry wood interior. It seems to go best with the brownish red toned vinyl thats installed now. Our only Heartland dealer near us has no 2011's and only 2008 and 09's so we can't judge by those.
We bounced back to the Patina as in some photos the green was very nice but other photos show the green very vibrant, and the chairs looked like they were covered in a satin fabric?
If anyone has photos they could send or advice, we'll gladly take it!
Also, we like the small closet the older models had, does anyone know if the factory could add one? (these were between the door and the dinette).
Thanks so much~
