I purchase mine in Apr 05. The dealer had it for nine months fixing the problems. Sold it after 2 years. I purchase a Wildcat and had only two problems in the year and pulled it over 12K miles. I do use my 5er alot.

I was born in Great Falls, Mt. My parents moved when I was 5.
I found them when I was 10 - they were in California.
We ordered our Heartland Sundance two weeks ago from Chesapeake RV Solutions in Chesapeake, VA, they had the best prices we could find. Checkout their web site www.chesapeakervsolutions.com then give Tim or Laura a call, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Anyone share any comments, pricing, quality?
When searching for pricing online, much seems to point to Lakeshore RV Michigan. Their list appears to be inventory but if you click to request a price, you get a mods list and I dont think all those mods would be something added at a dealer.
We have a Bighorn and love it. There were a few minor problems which were taken care of during the PDI. This was the third fiver we have purchased from the same dealer, Modern Trailer Sales in Anderson Indiana, and the pricing and support have always been superb. We special ordered our unit and went to the Heartland factory in Elkhart the day it was built for a guided tour. They have an impressive facility and everyone including the factory workers were very proud of their products and eager to answer all of our questions.
You mentioned 33 to 34', don't be fooled by the model numbers example 3400RL, my 3400 is actually 37'9" long brochures are also often wrong. If you really want a 33 or 34' unit take a 50' tape with you and measure the 5er your self. The same goes for weight, they often underestimate the actual weight.
Yes, I am aware the numbers dont reflect the 'true' length. However, I believe at one time they were implied to be the length and I still discuss them as the same.
I havent measured our SunnyBrook yet, but will within a week or so. Wouldnt it be nice if there was some industry standards they would all follow?
