Towed our 2010 x213 6800 miles this summer

Hey all

It's been crazy getting back into the swing of things at home. But we are back. We went 28 days and 6800 miles in our x213.. We towed it with a 2015 Ford Expedition. with an equalizer hitch. We had no issues at all. We left from our home in Brewster New York and drove out to Las Vegas. and then made our way back Via. The Grand Canyon, Zion , Bryce, The Arches, Cliff Dwellings, Million dollar highway....and many others small stops

Temps Ranged from 114 to 50 degrees.

Love the camper and can't wait to do it all again next year

That really is awesome, you should sit down and write out a detailed account of your trip. The highs, lows, etc, etc... Would love to read about it.

That's good to hear. We just bought a new X213 and plan to use it a lot next year.

We have probably put 15,000km on our Jayco 213. We have taken it on many local camping trips (within 500km) but also;

2x - Ontario to Virginia Beach
1x - Ontario to Myrtle Beach
1x - Ontario to Florida

We are booked at Fort De Soto in Florida again this coming March. Can't wait, I upgraded from a 2010 Chevy Traverse to a 2016 Ford F150 Ecoboost max tow.

We love our 213...but the F150 now has us exploring our "options" to upgrade.

We are hoping to do a West Coast trip in 2019, would love to hear your thoughts of what to see/what not to see, where to stay, etc!

awsome

That's good to hear. We are about to undertake a 9 week tour of western Canada leaving from Ottawa. 2 kids, a dog and us.
We are in the process of purchasing an x213 and towing with the GRAND trailhalk addition (not to be confused with the Cheokee trailhalk)

I was wondering if any one else is pulling x213 with the same TV.

Any advice for someone planning a summer long adventure?

Congrats on the upgrade.
