Jayco 32THBS

We have a 2020 Jayco THBS TT and we have taken it on two 2 week trips so far. We love it and with 2 daughters and 4 grandkid's it works well. I love the outside kitchen and with a Blackstone grill to help cook, the cooking has always been outside even in the rain.My only problem is with the front grey tank handle. Jayco put the handle under the couch/dining room slider. I'd rather not leave it open all the time, but to crawl under the slider at 68 is kind of a chore. Also with two air conditioners you would think that the larger one would be in the back cooling the whole trailer. Ours is over the master bedroom and not hooked up to the air conditioning system. If we need to use it, to help cool the trailer, it makes for a very cold bedroom.

Welcome aboard from SW Michigan!

Valve handle under a slider, what were they thinking!? And A/C, wonder if that's even an option to tie it into the duct work. Seems easy enough. Possible oversight?

Hope you have fun regardless! Happy trails!

When it's time to empty that gray tank, you could tell the oldest child "it's time to teach you what this valve does", and have them get under and pull it for you. With 6 kids, you could rotate them through "RV valve 101". Just thinking out loud.

You could replace the valve and use one with a longer release

Something like this but longer maybe: https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Sewer/La...SABEgJKlfD_BwE

Or possibly extend the one you have already with something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Valterra-TC72.../dp/B002N5POF6

Routing the cable from under the slide to a more accessible location.
