Heartland RV
For 2027, Heartland is adding floorplans to Milestone, Bighorn, Cyclone and Cyclone Travel Trailers.
The Milestone brand has expanded significantly, says Brickner. “Milestone is a high-value, quality-built, affordable, family-friendly, full profile / widebody fifth wheel.” It will gain four new floorplans, among them the 36RK, a couple’s floorplan with a massive rear kitchen; the 37MB, a family friendly floorplan with a mid bunkroom and a loft; and the 38BH, a family friendly floorplan with a bunkroom, ample storage and an outdoor kitchen with a refrigerator, griddle, sink and smart TV. Now standard on Milestone is the Dual 15K Whisper Quiet AC System. “This is typically an upgrade or something you would see on a $100,000 unit, now going to be available on all Milestone floorplans,” Brickner says. “This will give our customers a quieter, more efficient AC system that also has air filtration returns built into the units.” An optional heat pump in the main AC is available.
Cyclone will introduce the 15-foot 4115 garage floorplan. It features a five-seat L-shape sofa that holds a tri-fold bed for extra sleeping. Brickner says a unique feature on this floorplan is the entrance from the slide, allowing for spacious walkway, and separation between kitchen and the entertainment area. The company also did a complete overhaul for Cyclone standard features, adding solid-surface countertops, custom hardwood cabinetry, high-end entertainment systems and new furniture designs. On the exterior, find a step caddy for more exterior storage, the Helux Pin Box by Curt paired with Heartland’s Road Armour Suspension and Dexter Tow Assist. The company is also introducing a new matte black paint job called “Midnight Matte” and an optional extreme weather package with heat pads.
The Cyclone toy hauler brand is also expanding into the travel trailer segment, debuting three floorplans (2214, 2615 and 2816) ranging from 14-foot to 16-foot garages. These models will be equipped with 6,000 watt generators and will maximize garage widths and heights, Brickner says. All come equipped with king bed slides.
For 2027, Bighorn is introducing the 38DS, a new double-suite floorplan that maximizes seating and sleeping. Brickner says the GE dishwasher will now be standard in all floorplans. “We added a new water manifold system, so not only will you be able to shut off the water at the water source, you will also be able to shut it off before it even enters the respective water line.” A 7,000-watt generator is optional.
The dealer feedback Heartland received this year was “phenomenal, ” Brickner says. “All product lines are standing tall and strong in the field.” He adds that dealers and customers are both looking for high-value, quality-built products that are also affordable.
Among its most successful models and floorplans this year were Bighorn’s 39RK, 39FL, 38RE and 31RL; Milestone’s 31RL and 39TB; and Cyclone’s 3913 and 3914.
At Open House, Heartland will be located in the THOR display.
DRV Luxury Suites
DRV will be debuting the 39RKTS and 40FBRL floorplans for 2027. The company touts the debut of the DRV Mobile Suites. DRV wanted to make a bold statement about what true luxury fifth wheel living can be, says Trent Brickner, DRV director of sales and Heartland director of sales – fifth wheel and toy hauler divisions. Every detail reflects residential comfort and craftsmanship, from premium materials and refined finishes to thoughtful design and high-end features throughout.
Brickner says dealer and customer feedback consistently pointed toward greater residential luxury, better usability and smarter technology. “For MY27, we’re focusing on refined craftsmanship, functional innovation, premium amenities, and features that enhance the ownership experience while maintaining the quality and value expected in a luxury fifth wheel.”
Notable standard features include full body paint with choices of Black Diamond, Black Pearl, Coral Reef and Silky Blue. Another standard feature is the SMART (Safety Markers and Reverse Travel) water manifold system with individual shutoff valves. Electric dump valves are included for all tanks, as are frameless dual-pane tinted safety-glass windows and MORryde independent suspension with hydraulic disc brakes and shock absorbers. For the interior, a dishwasher under a stainless-steel kitchen sink, pull-out cutting board, handcrafted hardwood cabinetry, soft-close cabinet doors and drawers, and JBL home entertainment system with soundbar and wireless subwoofer all come standard. The bedroom is CPAP-prepped with flip-up shelf. In select models, standard features include a cedar-lined front wardrobe closet, ceiling fan, built-in laundry hamper in the wardrobe, a “shoe garage” in hallway step and more.
For 2027 options, DRV will offer the 7000 Onan Quiet Series generator, a queen residential foam-top mattress, slide toppers and an outside Halo griddle.
Looking ahead, Brickner is optimistic. “Interest in RVing remains strong, and as consumer confidence continues to improve, I believe the industry is well positioned for steady growth. I’m excited about the opportunities ahead and confident we’ll continue to see healthy demand,” he says.
At Open House, DRV Mobile Suites will be located in the THOR display at the RV/MH Hall of Fame.
