Driving our new x23b across the country tonight
Just got a great deal on a new 2012 so we picked it up in WI on our way back home to Denver. It will be a long winter waiting to use it... Enjoying reading all the helpful posts here as we pass the time. Advice is welcome!

You gotta love the smaller trailers - Easy to tow - can get into all kinds of places- got to be less expensive keeping them up.

Not sure what all you have on your 23B


After you get to spend a few nights in it you will find out all of your needs...

As with all of the HYBRIDS the weather seals for very large doors for the bed ends have to monitored close. I read the big doors that drop down may be easily warped alittle...

Love your choice of size... If we ever get something different this will be the size we will want to get...

Hi Tricky6, Great choice, that x23b! We have the x17z and have already decided the x23b is our next TT. We want the extra room, and like the floor plan better. We like the hybrid design because we like the "tent feeling" at night, and you don't sacrifice floor space for a regular bed. We have not had any problems with ours, and that's why were looking at Jayco for our next one.

Enjoy your new TT, but first-things-first, get it home safely.

So we are taking the x23b out for its maiden voyage soon... trying to figure out how to best utilize the wardrobe closets. Don't anticipate bringing too many hanging clothes - have seen one modification idea on this site but wondering what others do? Any other advice of items to buy for the camper is appreciated too!

Look at the link in my signature line called “General Mods”. I used modular closet wire shelving. Feel free to ask questions.
