New to Jayco

Just picked up our 304BKS Eagle Super Lite. Can't wait to take it out. Our last camper was a Rockwood Roo 233, so this one is about 12 ft longer. Do you think there are any campgrounds I can get too without making right handed turns?

Happy camping to everyone!

Look forward to reading other posts

For the right handed turns...signal, wait and GO!

They'll git outta yer way!

And if you turn the radio up loud enough, you won't even hear the horns!

Congrats on the new TT ... what do you tow with?

welcome and congrates on the eagle. We have a 304 Eagle and there may be some sites you wont fit in because of length. We have to pass a few up every now and again. You will love it though. Post up some pics inthe pic section. My rig is in there for you to see.

Let me get in line to say "welcome" and congrats on the new unit. RE a campground you can find w/o having to make right turns. I'd say "for sure" but it may take you a month of Sundays to get there! I see you're not all that far from me, I'm in southeast VA. My only problem here is the wife like to camp the Blue Ridge, 4 hrs drive but hey, it's worth it as long as I've got enough to buy fuel. Myself I like it better a bit further west, i.e. 1800 miles further west but we can’t have everything.

Again, welcome and we look forward to hearing more from you.

Thanks for the warm welcome to all. We finally have the new TT loaded up and organized. We love the storage space that the 304BKS has. We may make our Maiden voyage next weekend for my daughtes softball tourney up the road about 30 miles.

Quick question....does the level of the TT usually change after you put the slide out? If so, how much do you leave for balancing give and take?

Thanks for the help
