Woo Hoo!!!
We did it. We signed the dotted line and came home with a brand new 2016 Jay Feather X19H.
Our dealer was great. The salesperson went above and beyond with our trade in. The PDI tech was great. He was entertaining as well as knowledgeable as he went through all of the stuff and answered all of my questions thoroughly.
The ride home was uneventful. The unit towed straight. I did notice a little more strain on the TV. But after upgrading from a HW pop-up, I expected as much. The new HTT only weighs 1000# more (it was a BIG pop-up).
Got it in the driveway and set it up almost immediately in comparison to the pop-up. Started playing the "where's this go, now?" game with the stuff we took out of the pop-up. It was amazing how much stuff that has become obsolete with the new camper. ;-)
What's in store for us now? A little "driveway camping" this weekend and a local trip for the Labor Day weekend to run it through it's paces.

P.S. I know it's still early, but the only issues I've noticed are dirt and mud in the wastewater cap (must've been stored in a weird spot at some time, it was in the showroom when we bought it). And one of the straps that hold the front mattress in place has a broken clip. I think I'm going to replace them both with metal clips. The plastic ones they use just seem cheap.
