New To Forum

We just bought a 2011 Jayfeather X213 about two months ago. Owned a Jayco pop-up for 13 years, but had not camped for about 15 years. Big upgrade to the TT. Going out this weekend for the second & last time this year. I have found a lot of good information posted on this forum. I'm glad I found the site.

Fochman, got any pics and how do you like the X213 so far. I was looking at one, but instead bought another PUP, 1207.

No pics yet, but plan on taking some this weekend while camping. We really like the floor plan and it is so much more comportable than our ol pop-up.

How do you find your rear slide for sleeping? Do you sleep level? I have the same unit and I am currently dealing with the dealer and Jayco to try and get my slide to come out level. On some occasions this summer I slept with my head 2" lower then me feet. Anyone else finding this problem with this unit? Other then the un-level slide I am extremely happy with the unit.

Our bed has been level. We haven't had any issues with the slide.

Congrats Fotchman.... We also just bought our Jay Feather Select X213 and now it is being put up for the season. We went from camping in a Pop Up to this.... What a difference. ENJOY, We sure are.

Smile X213

Yes, it's much different with the TT. Since we bought our's so late in the season we only got out twice, but really enjoyed it. We'll spend the winter planning net season's adventures.
