We pull ours with a 2013 Dodge Journey. I have traveled about 1,000 miles already this summer. I have climbed some fairly long and tall grades. I haven't had any trouble at all. I am content with not driving over 65 fwy and 55 hwy. The car runs at under 2700 rpm. I has surpassed my expectations.

Thanks,

More than likely, that round metal outlet about the size of a cigar lighter is a 12 vdc outlet for a dc powered tv. The antenna amp is also dc powered just in case you were at a non electric site.

I thought it was a dc power out let. but it isn't the standard cigar lighter size. I haven't found anything to fit in it.
Thanks for you help anyway.

Totally agree with you TSLarson, we love our X23J. This is our second year with it and very minor issues with it that were rapidly fixed by the dealer.

Congrats on the new trailer! The x23b will be our next trailer. We love our x19h but bigger truck will bring a bigger trailer.

Thanks Mike. We almost got the 19H but we splurged on the X23H. Our dealer was great to work with and made things happen for us. Nothing but great things to say about our sales rep and the dealership. Forrest Marine and RV Center just outside of Nashua, NH in a town called Tyngsboro, MA.

We just picked up our 2006 26L. We upgraded from our Starcraft Venture. It looks a lot bigger in the driveway than it did at the lot! But the roominess is much needed. We'll be living in it while our house is being renovated!

We own a 2014 X19H and will be taking delivery on it August 11, 2014. We've already made reservations at four rv parks and can't wait to get on the road.

We just got the X23U. Having the large expando couch section was the selling point for us.

Thats where we picked up our pristine, used, x23j. Forrest Marine was very helpful, but then again, we were an easy sell. They just happened to have just what we were looking for.

There are so many model choices we may have to start another poll. Unfortunately There are only 10 options per poll.

2015 Jayco SLX 16XRB, first real camper/trailer for us. Pulling it with a 2003 Honda Odyssey with a Jasper tranny (the OEM trannies were junk in the 01-03 Odysseys), and the Jasper has a built-in tranny cooler. WDH and Primus EBS. We take it <=60 on freeways, getting used to how it tows. May take it further as we get more confident we're not going to kill the minivan. For now we pack light and look for spots within 100 miles of home.

Other than that, we're excited! One trip already, more coming soon. Our 4 and 2 year old boys love it. We're already planning on the future (5 or so years) to get a more powerful TV and maybe move up to an X-series.

Love our 08 23B too. Lots of indoor storage and lots of livable space

We have the discontinued 26L, 4 bunks and queen in the front. By far the trailer with the best storage I've ever come across.
