Jayco Embark???

I saw one of these going down the road, today in S. Illinois. I hadn't ever heard of one so I looked it up and was shocked to see it was made in/around 2011-2012 by Jayco. I was even more shocked to see that it had 4 slide outs and had a 8.3L 350 cummins, Allison 3200 and a 10-ton tow capacity.

Any ideas why 'this' isn't made any more?!

I can think of at least a few Seneca owners that would enjoy the extra power/room.

First sold in 09 and it was not a big seller. That was also when JAYCO switched to the FREIGHTLINER M2 business class chassis for the SENECA since GM stopped production of the KODIAK. Price wise the SENECA won out in the market.

That's a real shame. I'd really like to have the 8.3L option...

Any word on them offering it to compete with the HD dynamax?

No rumors floating right now.
