Hello All,
Great site with LOT's of good info!
We are out of the kid business
and are looking to get back into camping. We have owned older TT's and 5'vrs but are looking at a nice TT for just us. We have a very nice 2013 RAM 2500 with the Cummins engine so we can tow just about anything but we do want to try and keep the size close to about 30' due to parks etc. We don't want to be limited on where we can go too much. I am retired Navy and still working for the Gov't and my wife also works in Gov't for the VA. Both kids are out of college and doing well so it just sort of felt like now is the time to get back envolved.
So far by reading (a lot) of info out on the WWW I have to say that Jayco seems to have not only a good product but also a good following of loyal owners. That says quite a bit about the brand, so they are right up there on my list. I personnally think that a majority of the manufactures these days make a pretty good trailer, some better some worse but I think a lot comes down to attention to detail, both on their part and ours. So going in I know that buying a trailer comes with the responsibility of maintaining the trailer. Part of that will be the pre-purchase inspection.
Right now we are debating on new/used. I know there are some deals to be had on the used side of the house but it also comes with the unknown. On the new side, you still have the unkown, how was it built but you do have a warrenty. Would be interested to hear your take on new / used. As this will be our trailer for a LONG time ( we don't plan on 2' itis) I am leaning to new.
Well enough rambling on, time to go back to looking at posts! Feel free to drop me any information you have Jayco or not. Thanks!
