The 28 and 29 BHS are dimensionally identical, the 29 just has a few more frills.

The 29has been discontinued for 2012, now you can order a jazzed up 28 instead!

The numbers 28 and 29 are just model numbers and do not imply exact length. Many brands are this way which can lead to some confusion. The 28/29 BHS are 30'6" from coupler to bumper.

Jayfeather, 2010, our first ever TT. The next one may be bigger, or believe it or not some kind of PU that can handle boon docking 4x4 roads.

Solar, somehow?

Just bought ours - and can't wait to get going !
Have a 2012 24FBS Jayflight
We loved the layout and that was most of the reason for the purchase. We are upgrading from a pop up so this will be a whole new experience. But so far, we love the TT.

Buying used is great when it is a Jayco.

Still enjoy my 1996 Jayco Eagle 210 SL which I purchased used in 2007.

We have owned our Jayflight G2 31RKS for a year and a half now and taken about 6 2-3 hour trips. We absolutely love it and have had only minor problems. We did have one major problem. The dealer told me my F150 would haul it no problem! Well, it did, straight and level but as soon as we started up a hill, the transmission worked itself to death. I did a weight and balance and we were also over on the tongue weight as well and figured if I kept at it, something would eventually break. Sooooooooooo, now we are pulling with a Dodge Ram 2500 5.9L Diesel and just loving it. It hardly knows we are pulling anything. Am having a slight problem with the Marathon tires blistering on the sidewalls but I will watch them closely and swap them out. Don't want to risk a blowout.

We bought a White Hawk 28DSBH on March 30. Camped this weekend in it for our break in run. Not bad to hook up everything, and figure out how everything works. We upgraded from a pop up that didn't have all of these amenities. Hardest thing seems to be getting the truck lined up correctly with the trailer. With the popup I could move it around if I was off. The Trailer, no such luck.
