Part of the issue is what is very important to one owner may be very unimportant to another. The OP for example mentioned that a convection microwave is substantially less expensive than a conventional. To me it's a couple hundred dollars and a feature I'm not likely to use. I wouldn't have given it a second thought. To the OP it's a major deal. I'm also guessing it's a minor swap for the dealer. Knowing up front there was a substitution allows all three parties to work it out.

There have been other threads about TV substitutions. In one the tv that was included was an inch smaller. I don't full time and never had a TV in any of mine so I'd rather negotiate a sub for something I would use. Again, no big deal to me, but I understand someone else getting upset.

Jayco knows this. Their attitude is take it or leave it. They know you're most likely not going to walk away and ruin all of your travel plans over a few missing items.
He did not order this trailer. If I ordered a trailer and it came in without some of the stuff I ordered I would tell the manager either put it in or I want money off or order me the trailer we want. I know people that have done that and the dealer did everything in his power to make it right. If the dealer did not want to do anything then the door swings both ways, after you get your money back. The trailer people can change things at will.

Fine, order a dodge ram with a high output turbo diesel and 4:10 rear and have it delivered with a standard diesel and a 3:73 rear and have them tell you to bad and you still have to pay the full price. Would you like that.

That example seems a bit different than a $500 microwave versus a $300 microwave. I wouldn’t order a Ram truck knowing those terms. Knowing they may sub a smaller water heater wouldn’t stop me from ordering. But if it stops you from buying new, no problem, there are always great used units available and you know exactly what you are getting.

I understand your point, but my point is it’s not disclosed. I ordered my Northpoint with the Sana con system. If the unit was delivered without one and I still had to pay for it I would not be happy. I have 50 gallon holding tank’s if they weren’t available and they put 35s or 30s in its place and said too bad I would be mad. My point is they could substitute all I want, just have the courtesy to tell people before they buy it and find out that they didn’t get what they paid for.

OSrdered a 382 with the disc brake upgrade which was suppose to have 17.5" Goodyear tires. Trailer arrived with 16" chinabomb tires. I refused delivery until the proper tires were installed on trailer. Took another month to get Jayco to do that. I never have had china tires on my last 3 trailers and will not now. Glad to have it home now and getting it ready for the next season. Hope to see some of you on the road.

Smart. I saw far too many travel trailers on the side of the busy highways with blowouts on my way to FL from NE. Having good tires is a must. I would never trust a Chinese tire.

I ran the 15” Rainier tires for about a year and a half, no problem but replaced them with Maxxis M8008.

Josh at Haylett RV did a video on this. He basically said peeps may look at a brochure and order it but instead of X it came with Y. Its because thats all they could get. He gave another example of how they were to come with TV's and didnt. The dealer had to run to Best Buy and buy 20 tv's
