Waiting on Delivery

Hello All!
First time on the Jayco forum but not to RVing. My wife and I have an older Fleetwood Prowler (2004) and decided to upgrade to a Jayco Eagle 355MBQS after seeing it at Hershey in 2022. Ordered it in late January (also bought a new horse to pull it 2022 F350 6.7 CC SB) and just heard it has just completed assembly awaiting delivery. Looking forward to not having to crank jack legs and drive up on leveling blocks after doing it for 20 years.

Congrad's and welcome
Don't throw your levelling blocks away! I still bring 2x 8 S enough to raise one side 3 inches. Campgrds haven't changed and self levelling with two wheels off the ground is not safe

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new fifth wheel trailer and tow vehicle!!

You will love the leveling jacks....suggest installing SnapPads but bring a set of leveling pads just in case.

Congratulations!

I won't show this post to DW; she might hand in her crank.


Well, her socket-mounted battery-powered Milwaukee drill is pretty easy and she's great with it - put's NASCAR pit crews to shame.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new trailer and tow vehicle!!

You are going to love the electric front and rear jacks. Consider SnapPads for the jack feet.

We got $225 worth of gift cards when we purchased the trailer and SnapPads were the first things we bought.
