I am pretty sure mine left the plant fine, then was driven like a rent car by the delivery guys 1014 miles to Texas, then Camping World didn't do anything but put it on the lot.

I mentioned this once before, we saw two units (TT) being delivered (non JAYCO) where all 4 wheels left the ground when the drivers hit a bump because they were going so fast.

I'm willing to bet those units were in better shape when they left the factory then when they arrived at the dealer. The same probably happens to some of the JAYCO units, unfortunately some dealers don't make the corrections before selling them.

I have to agree with the poor workmanship/QC. There were a ton of small things about my Greyhawk that someone should have corrected. Things like wires hanging down under the coach.

I found my dealer to be completely and utterly useless. I have been dealing directly with Jayco Customer service ever since. They call or write back in a timely fashion, and have shipped me any parts I've needed. So far a sound reduction adapter for the Jensen, a microwave dish, an inverter and an entire window assembly.

How to improve gas mileage?

We just purchased a used '04 Greyhawk with Ford V10 engine, and it gets only about 4gpm. Any suggestions as to how to improve the gpm? We only drive about 55-60 mph and mostly on freeways.

Just purchased a 2015 Greyhawk last Fall. Full of small issues and one big issue. One of the large windows was forced into place and bent the outside wall. Window needs to be removed and installed properly !!! I really think the workers just don't care !!!

I think most dealers try to do as little as possible.

Our dealer in Monroe, WA has done a lot of fixit items on our list since we bought our Greyhawk 27DS last year, and not charged us a dime. They are great to work with.

I'm guessing that most dealers don't want to fix anything until after it's sold so they can get paid additional "Warranty" fees. Double dipping from the manufacturer as they also get paid for a PDI up front I think.

I hope you all have better luck than I have had with my 2014 Greyhawk, it has been a huge disappointment.

You were probably charged a PDI (pre delivery inspection) looks like they did not do this.. I would be talking to the owner of the company...

I would definitely would say NO!!!! Quite a shame actually coming from what I thought was one of the better quality products prior to my purchase.

Boy you pulled up a old thread here. The last post before yours was over 3 years ago!

I will say ours has been problem free since delivery. Never been back to dealer for anything. I did have a few small items corrected prior to taking it home. Very satisfied! We really enjoy traveling in our class c motorhome. Clearly one of our best Rv purchases and we have tried many different types and makes.

Wasnt trying to pull up nothing or get an old thread going again. Never paid attention to the date. Just happened a crossed it. I do not do the forum thing much and not new on here so I suppose there is a time limit to which once can post a reply??

As for your RV I am glad that you are satisfied. From many reviews that I have read a crossed different sites I would say you are among the few. Mine was in the shop for three and half months and still most things were ignored or sloppily done. I think waiting three and a half month makes it clear that there were many ahead of me. Since this is such an old post and it must be against the rules to post to old posts I will refrain from posting anything to it again. Have a nice day cabinentmaker and I hope you continue to enjoy your RV.
