Hello from ND
I’ve owned my Jayco Eagle since new in 2005. I was on vacation in West Yellowstone and found my travel trailer at the time (Keystone- never again) to be woefully lacking. While the family went white water rafting, I wandered into Bozeman, MT and the rest is history! As late as today I was wandering a local RV dealership and was looking at the Riverside Retro 179 and even today did not see anything that to me at least, can compare to the layout and design of my 298BHS. Nothing seemed to be even close to being as nice! I have remind myself of this every once in awhile. I’m 55 and I try to hand wax the exterior as I have for the past 14 years but I’m no spring chicken anymore. I love the way the white fiberglass gleams when waxed! But alas, she’s starting to look her age. Anyways, I sought a group like this as my current love of my life wants to remodel the inside a little and I’m thinking of painting the exterior to match my Ram. I was hoping someone has gone before me in doing this and can provide advice. I love my Jayco!!!
