76,

Welcome and congrats on looking at a tt!!!

If you're wondering about how members like the floor plan, we can't help there as we have a different model. But as for how we like our Jayco we have been pretty happy overall.

Regarding the 294, being a bunkhouse I am guessing you have kids (or grandkids). Just make sure you have enough of a tv (tow vehicle) for that trailer once it's loaded up for a trip. Don't be fooled by the tv "tow rating" thinking you will be just fine. There are other factors that need to be taken into account. There is a yellow sticker in the drivers door jamb that states: "All occupants and cargo not to exceed XXXXlbs". This is the rated payload for your truck as it rolled off the assembly line. As stated, the weight of: all occupants, cargo (cooler, bikes, firewood, etc), any accessories added (truck topper/ tonneau cover, step bars, etc), the wdh (weight distribution hitch), AND the tt tw (travel trailer to the weight) all count toward the trucks rated payload. The other rating to watch is the trucks factory mounted receiver hitch tw rating.

Definitely get a good wdh with integrated sway control.

Good luck shopping!!!

Happy Camping.
Looks like a great rig for lots of kids or grandkids. As has been said, at 8250 lbs. empty make sure you have enough TV to pull it and I think you will really enjoy it.
