Whoops disregard.
Jim - it's a much larger role for sure. We sell a LOT of Bighorns!

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. I'm looking forward to my role as the GM for Big Horn & Oakmont. To answer the question - yes it's a promotion. The division is one of the largest in the company - depending on the year it can be and often is the biggest.
This is a bit of a new role for me in that I started Redwood from the ground up. I took over a brand in need with Landmark which is now LM365 and the number one selling LUXURY fifth wheel on the market and now I'm tasked with the role of basically taking a product that's doing well and making it great. I've got lots of ideas and can't wait to get going. I try to stay active on the forum as much as possible. I have three young daughters and a wife that keep me plenty busy when I get home but I will do my best to answer questions if someone asks or if nobody else has answered.
I love getting feedback from actual users so I can make better product decisions. I have some exciting news to announce in the near future about a project I'm working on with Big Horn. I think both current customers and prospective customers are going to find it a extremely helpful and if nothing else - a good idea that's long overdue and something that you haven't seen done in this industry before. That's all I saying because there is still lots to discuss before I can roll it out.
Have be a great evening and I look forward to working with everyone.
Talk soon,
Tom

Heartlands own web site lists the Bighorn as a luxury 5th wheel. That would make IT the largest selling luxury 5th wheel.
BTW we think our BH is great. In fact Heartland isn't making anything right now we would trade even for.

Congratulations on your promotion Tom. I hope you can turn the Bighorn line around. Seems like Big Country is doing so much more in some respects trying to surpass Bighorn. Since Bighorn was our product of choice back in 2006 I still feel like it needs to continue to be second to Landmark and not passed over by Big Country. We will be looking forward to see how Bighorn progresses in the next few years as we would like to downsize from our 2009 Landmark Augusta some day.

I look forward to seeing what Tom does with Bighorn, as a longtime HL customer looking toward my next rig, I'm a prospective customer, so I'm watching intently!

Congratuations Tom. Just never have understood why the product lines continue to 'compete' against each other. Seems like each product line should be directed toward their own customer base. I mean if the lines get blurred too much there is no point in separate lines.

Congrats, Tom. Now, back to work...Bring back the all-metal slam doors. Integrate components (batteries,inverter, etc.) as opposed to just mounting them in storage areas. "Better" furniture! Is there a better option for long-term decals? Mine are curling and falling off. I'm looking to get a new Bighorn, maybe I'll wait to see what you got.

I agree with RoadJunkie on the decals. based on our current Landmark I am not impressed at all with the decals. If I had my way and could not afford full body paint it would be a nice alternative to have what used to be decals painted on instead. I also believe they should continue to paint the front and rear caps from now on also. My 2-cents
