Good work Jayco, two out of three!

I'm a little bummed to see Ford as the t/v pick

The Ford pick for TV is only natural, dmax_83. At my last camping trip of the 2012 summer, I counted 11 Fords, 2 Chevys, and 0 Dodges as tow vehicles within sight of my campsite. At least at that CG, I guess most folks agreed with Trailer Life on that one. JMHO, of course.

According the latest report at the end of 2012, the Ford F-150 was the number one selling vehicle in 23 states. Surprisingly, the Toyato Tacoma was the number one selling vehicle in Hawaii. This publication had nothing to do with towing TT's, just had to do with the amount of vehicles purchased per state.

I think the quality of food and service have slipped somewhat over the years.

It was the readers choice..like all Resturant chains some are better than others. Ease of RV parking will always sway my vote.

Motorhome mag had a similar article. Having read both I noticed that the winners were pretty predictable. In a lot of cases there was only three products to choose from. Jayco did fine considering they only have about 12 percent of the RV market if I remember right. I know there are those that like the number game but I think just mentioning the various manufacturers gives people knowledge of a product they may not have heard about before.

Two things.
First- Cracker barrel has decent food for the price. We've never had a "bad" meal in the past 6 years of using them.
Second- RV parking is sometimes taken up by inconsiderate cars so we just pull around front and take up about 12 car parking spaces!!!
