Howdy from the Garlic Capitol of the World

Going to pick up a brand new Jay Feather 7 model 18RBM this coming Thursday.

The wife and I have had a Starcraft tent trailer for about 20 years. The kids are gone and we were looking for something with more features than our current tent trailer. I will semi-retire next year and we plan on visiting several National Parks that we haven't been to as well as short camping adventures.

We looked at other brands with Murphy beds and settled on Jayco for the way this particular trailer was laid out and the 2 year warranty.

Best,
Steve

Were you at the STARCRAFT RALLY at Casa da Fruta in 2004? We had a great time and loved the Garlic Festival....

Welcome to the forum and congrats on getting a Jayco! We have been through Gilroy many times, love the smell of those stinking roses. Post some pictures once you pick up the trailer, we would love to see them.
