Got my new Jayco SLX 185

Just got my SLX 185, last week. I am new to the forum and have learned very much. This is the first new camper, with my last one being 29 years old.
So needless to say, having something new, I hope will be a lot of fun. Just wondering if any one else has bought this model, and how you like it. Coming from near Elkhart In., with my extended 4x4 5.3, GMC, I averaged 12.1 miles per gallon. I am happy with that. That was down to South east Mo. almost 450 miles away.

Welcome to the JOF, epbigfoot. That SLX 185 seems to be a popular model this week. I swear you are about the third person who's mentioned it!
