I called Heartland back this morning as they have not emailed or called me back after several attempts.
Spoke to a rep who told me:
They not using Azdel anymore as they had delam problems. I asked if they were back to using Luan and he said they never stopped using Luan. I told him I thought Azdel replaces Luan and he said no Azdel replaces Filon. Either I am confused or he does not really know how their walls are constructed.
I asked about the upgraded mattress being 78" and did the bed frame get adjusted for that. He said the upgrade was just to pillowtop and stays the same as the foam 74". I said the website etc says it's upgraded to a 78" Pillowtop. He said yes it is. I questioned that he just contradicted himself and again he said it will be 78" I'm not confident with his answer.
He said the Pearl package includes a smoother higher gloss exterior(Filon) but was Azdel before they stopped using Azdel(correct me if I'm wrong I don't think this is correct.
I questioned the upgraded graphics, skirt & black trim and diamond plate as stated in the Pearl package description. He said all the North Trails have the same graphics, skirt, trim and diamond plate now. How is this listed as an upgrade and charging extra for it?
This may all sound like I was being rude but I was very polite and just looking for accurate info. I'm not impressed with Heartland's customer service as I am more confused than I was before I spoke with them.
I think the rep you talked to was confused. I stopped by my dealer yesterday to pick up a couple things and looked at one of there pearl packages. It specifically stated that they use adzel. It also has black skirts, trim and diamond plate. The designs (swirls) are the same and in the same spots, however the look like marble or granite instead of the solid colors. I did not look that closely at the actual exterior surface to see if was smoother or glossier than the standard walls.
Not sure on the bed.
The other thing I noticed was that all of heartlands 2014 models had the correct track wheel alignment system on them.
