Hello From South Jersey

Hello everyone. My name is Mike. I am from south Jersey right outside Philly. I just bought a 2013 Jay Feather X17Z at the Allentown RV show. So far we have only brought it home, set it up on the street for a night, then had to park it in the driveway. We upgraded from a 2003 Coachman Clipper pop up. Our camping gang is Myself, wife, daughter (11), son (9), and two dogs (Beagle and Boxer/Lab mix puppy) So far I have found some mods I am already interested in doing, and enjoying all the information that is on here about the new TT.

Thanks Mike.

Welcome to the JOF. You and your family will love the 17Z. It has a lot to offer in a small package. We bought one in 2010 with the goal of going as light and lean as possible. My wife and I and our two teenage children really enjoy it.

The weather is extremely cold here right now with snow just over the weekends, so we are looking at the forecast a week out and just watching them to get a good weekend. Above the 20s would work for me. If not, we have trips starting mid March and every month until November. Two of them are week long trips.

Or sooner if the weather breaks and we do a pre-open season.
