Jayco quality

[Bud&Deb]

Wife & I are looking for a new Motorhome. Class A or C. Looked at the Jayco class C’s today. What is the consensus on the Jayco’s or any other makes for that matter? Thanks!

They all suck. Jayco just sucks less. Expect a number of “challenges” with ownership as a whole. Nothing that can’t usually be remedied. Jayco and Keystone would be my top picks for long term quality.

You'd do better by being wary of the dealer, specifically a CW lot. If you do buy, prepare and use the pre-inspection checklist included in the forum. Good luck!

There will be a few adjustments that will have to be made but when you see what’s around the next corner the only adjust you’ll have to make is that smile on your face. Enjoy and share your new life just like we are doing now.

Most everything man made will have some problems. Even some high high dollar motorhomes. I know Jayco fixed things on our travel trailer when we had problems, under warranty,. I also fixed things that were not that bad. You will find good and bad out there, best thing to do is look at all different models and make up your mind.

I compare most of the RV industry to the way the big three built cars back in the 60s-early 70s. Neither really cared about quality, just push them out and do warranty repairs as needed. I had a few minor problems with my Jayco in the first two years, most I took care of myself, bigger ticket items that required parts the dealer had Jayco ship them to me.

There are pros and cons to buying new or used and a lot of owners in both camps. Set a budget and then find a floor plan you like and then start comparing different makes and models. It is helpful to have a reputable dealer but it’s more important to have a place you can go for repairs regardless of who the manufacturer is. If you buy new Jayco carries a 2 year warranty which gives you 2 full camping seasons to work out the bugs. Also, if your dealer cannot take care of any issues then a call to Jayco Motorized CS will provide you with outstanding customer support. They truly stand behind their products. If you buy used then you will have a much smaller warranty window if any at all. I have owned numerous TT’s over the years and had a class C (not Jayco) prior to my present rig and I am very happy with Jayco. Do your research and make your decision based on the best information you have which fits your lifestyle and you will have fewer regrets after you pull the trigger. Good luck and let us know what you decide.

FWIIW, not all CW's are bad. The one in El Paso has been really good for us. It is also where we bought out trailer.

We just picked up our unit this week. So no long term opinions yet. But we sold our 2001 29QBH which we LOVED. Based on the quality of that TT we stayed with Jayco for our Class C. Build quality seems to be really good. No complaints. Will post under Greyhawk Prestige in Class C threads.
