Here is a response I received on the Heartland Forum:
[COLOR=]Please let me clear some things up for you, if I could....
1) We did use Azdel for about a year but there was a combination of issues that came up and Heartland decided to go back to Luan behind the fiberglass until we feel confident about going back to Azdel.... And Azdel did replace luan when we were using it....
2) The pillow top Mattress is a longer 78" mattress then our standard 74" mattress but we do not change the bed box size.
3) The Pearl Package is an upgraded fiberglass, Filon is a brand of Fiberglass... Heartland uses Filon 1000 glass and Filon 3000 glass.... The difference is the amount of Gel coat that is in the glass..... The pearl Package uses the 3000 and is at the top of line as far as fiberglass is concerned. This is the same glass that some of our $70,000 5th Wheels use.
4) The graphic package used to be different in the 2013 and early 2014 models but the upgraded graphic package looks so good we decided to make that standard from about Oct 2013 on.... same with the black trimmings.
Also, Flagg RV in MA has a 24BHS on there lot... At least they did last week so please call them before driving.
I hope this helps you.
