Hello Everyone

Well, my wife and I have never camped before we jumped in with both feet and bought a travel trailer in June. Heck, I've never even pulled a trailer before this purchase!
We have taken three trips this summer and hope to get a few more in before winter. My wife and I have enjoyed ourselves so far and our Bernese Mountain dog loves to travel as well. We realize that we have a lot to learn but are looking forward to the process.
We purchased a 2017 Jay Feather 23 RLSW and are towing with a 2013 ChevyTahoe.

Congratulations on the new 2017 Jay Feather 23 RLSW and welcome to the JOF. You have come to the right place to learn about your rig. In the short time we have been here we have learned a great deal from our fellow JOF members.

Congrats Vince!
Welcome to the Forum. Lots of good info can be found here. One thing I did when we started camping, was to keep a notebook of things you need for future trips. ENJOY!

Thanks for the welcome. We are looking forward to many great adventures. I do have to admit that I'm still a bit nervous when I hook up the TT.

Rlsw

Welcome Vince....We just traded in our x23b for a 2016 23rlsw, picking it up next week. We don't need the sleeping room that the x23 had now that the grand kids are almost grown. I guess we will figure out the rlsw together
