Thanks, looking forward to this summer's camping ventures. I will be seeking answers to some questions I have, and welcome any advice or input to issues that may exist with these units.

Welcome to the forum. I'm just around the corner from you in Milton, Ontario and with the - 35 C weather this week I am hoping spring arrives soon.

If you happened to have bought your trailer from Sicard I can say that I have been very happy with their service and warranty help there.

Enjoy and maybe we will see you out on the roads : )

Raspberry, thanks, no I bought it from a place in Kingston. Left this morning at 6;00am and it was minus 25 celsius with the wind chill was more like minus 33 celsius. I can't recall a winter like this, at least recently. Still in the research mode.

Thanks jkaras7 and motorbreath, I've been doing some research and just noticed some are having clearance and pin height problems with towing it with a 3/4 ton truck. I wish I came across this issue before buying it, I could of had it addressed as part of the deal. Will continue some more research and have the salesman take some measurements and give them to me and see if i too have the same problem. The dealer is 3 and 1/2 hours from me so going there is not doable. Sure glad I found this forum which is 100% Jayco, should be able to cover all that has to do with this trailers here. Thanks again everyone.

Thanks Isaacs, you probably take the QEW to the Red Hill creek expressway to the Lincoln expressway and down the 403 to 401, try to say that 3X's fast. I'm off the linc.

Yup, that's the way we go. We were glad when they finally hooked all that together several years back.

Our first Jayco came from Sicard in Smithville and our current one we bought used, but came from Hiemstras in London.

Issacs we here know what you mean, that red hill expressway really made it easier getting around here. Be sure to wave when passing by upper wentworth on the linc, I live a mile south of there. Thanks bdreinv, hope you are keeping warmer then we are here. Iraq 69 I wish I ran into this before, will be doing some more research and more than likely posting a question later for some input on the matter by those who have same 5th wheel a TV. CanucksVenturingSouth nice to meet another hamiltonian, hoping you are doing well with this beautiful weather we are having. Thanks again everyone.
