Don't quote me, but I was told it's not so much the piping as the facets. Apparently the RV facets can't take the sustained pressures that home style take. Never had a failure, and I've never used a regulator, maybe just lucky.

Soon to be New 337 Bar Owners!!!!

My husband and I have been looking at the 337 Bar for over a year now and I am excited to say we have finally made a definite decision and will be going to the bank the first of the week and hope the be picking up our new 2016 Heitage Glen 337 Bar within the next week or so. I'm feeling confident we have made the right choice. This will be our 2nd camper , we just sold our 27ft TT that we enjoyed for 5 wonderful years ...... But when u have a 110lb GSD traveling with u a bigger RV is a big plus😌
The only thing I already noticed that is going to bother me is no bedside shelves. Has anyone added these..... I like to have my ice tea, my readng glasses etc. I know there is a higher a shelf but it appears a little high to me.... Maybe more for a clock. Also does the bed use regular king sheets as what u would buy for any king mattress or is an RV king mattress different?

I have the B&W Turnover Ball hitch. I probably would not have bought it, but it came with the used 2007 Silverado 2500 Diesel that I found for 19k. 90k miles. I bought the companion hitch to go with it. It is a breeze to hook up and disengage. I had the cheap kind before and will never go back. Don't need a spotter, camera or anything. Just a great set up.

My wife bought a folding table at Camping World where the bottom is shaped like an 'L'. It fits nicely on her side of the bed and works great. We were considering having someone build something there, but this was cheap and it solved the problem nicely.

I found something similar to that online from LTD Commodities to hold DH's cpap machine

Fits right next to bed between wall and mattress and it was about $20

Great!!! Glad to have some options. Thanks so much.
You know I have been surprised to find that the shelves u see in so many 5th wheels are not easy to find after market. We were recently at a RV show and went in many RVs .... Those shelves look simple enough.....seems like you should just be able to buy them and add them.... But I have not found them anywhere.... at least not in the manner I have researched them.....
But one of these tables will be fine. Thanks again.

That looks perfect. Thanks.
Can u help me with something else?... Though I have been in the 337 Bar numerous times we are still waiting on ours to arrive from the factory..... And I know it is a king bed but does that mean I can just buy king sheets at the store?? or is the RV king different? I know in our TT we had a queen and store bought queen sheets worked fine along with my 3 inch memory foam topper.

Sounds like the dealer is trying to sell it like the car dealers used to try to sell special protective coating

Thanks guys.... we decided against the protection shield. For a reasonable price it would have probably been worth it but we decide like most are saying it is basically a rip off.

Help!! First new RV... first PDI!

Ok friends we go for our PDI this coming Wed on our 2016 Heritage Glen 337 Bar. The entire HG 337 Bar thread has been great! I have been sharing with my husband many things we need to look for, but this is only our 2nd RV and our first new one ... Bravo67 told me many things to pay attention to but for those of u who have already "been there and done that" as well... I'm making a list and would appreciate any suggestions for our PDI.
