Tight Turn Technology

Short-bed extended cab trucks are a popular choice because owners can park in their own garage or at a restaurant. But cornering with a fifth wheel attached has always been a challenge due to the truck’s design. Thanks to our patented improved tight turning radius design, owners can confidently and conveniently complete a tight turn when towing a 5th wheel—instead of hitting the cab.

Universal Docking Center

Formerly found only on expensive motorhomes, Heartland re-engineered the docking design so that owners at all price points could enjoy the same convenience. This innovative compartment holds all of the major hook-ups for 5th wheel models in one place including: city water, tv, phone, satellite, pull handles for holding tanks, and tank flush hookups. 

Carpet-Free Slideouts

While we were the first manufacturer to offer the slideout room, we didn’t stop there. We topped it with another first: outfitting the slideouts with woven marine-grade flooring. Easy to clean, durable, hypo-allergenic. In short: the ideal floor for RVers with kids and pets.

Industry Leading Storage

When it comes to RVing, storage is at a premium.  We work hard to create unique storage opportunities by maximizing front end storage space and providing easy access, owners can enjoy more storage and better utilization of space. Coolers with food and beverages can now be separated from all the messy remnants of another great day outdoors, be it wet gear or dirty laundry. 

Side Patio

How’s this for ingenuity? The ramp door on our toy haulers doubles as a patio deck. So you get twice the space without adding weight. Not to mention the simple pleasure of stepping right outside your kitchen or living room to take in the beautiful views—along with your morning coffee. 

Versatile Garage Spaces

Our toy haulers are cleverly designed with versatile garage spaces so whether you haul motorcycle side-by-sides or are just looking for extra space to use for whatever — a home office, workshop, mud room or spare room for kids or guests — you’ll find it with Heartland.

Hidden Toy Hauler Garage

Who knew? With the touch of a button, the bedroom floor can be lifted all the way up to the ceiling to create a unique, unobstructed, 14-foot garage. Complete with a full-size ramp door patio and three season garage wall. What else would you expect from the industry leaders?

The Vault / The Vault XL

A Single Location for 12V Wiring and Power Reset Breakers

Exclusive to Heartland, The Vault provides central housing for 12V wiring connections. It allows owners to disconnect 12V power going from your battery to the RV, keeping your battery in the same charge state as when you cut power. To maintain safety, even when you’ve disconnected power, The Vault still powers the breakaway switch, and any installed solar packages will still be able to charge solar-connected batteries.

The Vault contains:

• Multi-way cord connections with a color-coded distribution block
• Battery disconnect (standard or optional)
• Mini-breakers
• Inline fuse connections

The advantages of The Vault include:

• 12V connections protected from weather and the elements
• Fewer battery connections needed
• Streamlined wiring, reducing the number of components mounted to the drawbar
• A dedicated breakaway post for constant power to the breakaway switch
• Trickle charging through solar power
• Clearly labeled and easily removable components for easier maintenance

Inside The Vault, there’s an easy-to-understand diagram that identifies each item and circuit. All components listed above are easy to remove or replace. If you blow a fuse or trip a breaker, always identify the cause before you install new ones, and never use a higher-rated fuse or breaker than specified in your Owner’s Manual. When doing maintenance or repairs on your Heartland RV, please use caution. If you feel unsure of anything you’re doing, play it safe and call a professional service provider.

The Vault is standard on all Travel Trailers and The Vault XL is a larger version and standard on all Fifth Wheels.

Air Fryer Oven with 3 Burner Stove

In an RV, every square inch of space matters. That’s why we built air fryer technology into our ranges, freeing up countertops for other things. Like standalone air fryers, the oven uses convection – hot, moving air – instead of oil to cook crispy, crunchy foods. That means whether you’re heating up fish sticks for the kids, or roasting chicken wings for game day, you’ll get a perfect golden exterior – every time.

Need to cook on the stove? No problem! The gas cooktop provides even heat for delicious meals, while cast iron grates over the burners are durable and lift off for cleaning. Each knob on the range is backlit with a soft, LED glow, changing from an ambient white to red when in use –  so you’ll know at a glance if you’ve left a burner on. And inside the oven, the convenient mesh frying tray and drip pan lift out, making cleanup easier than ever.

• Industry first air fryer oven, exclusive to Heartland and available on all travel trailers and Torque fifth wheels
• Includes a gas cooktop and removable mesh frying tray that’s easy to clean
• No need to pack another appliance in valuable kitchen storage space; enjoy the crisp texture of air fried foods right from the oven
