Just bought a 2011 X17Z. It is my third rv (previously owned a Viking p-up and an Antigua TT). I camp a lot in Northern Alabama, Florida, Tennessee and Virginia. Very informative site and I have already seen some mods that I want to do to my rv. Happy Camping.

We also moved from a pop-up camper to a small RV. Never thought we would do so; but sure was a good decision. Particularly being able to just walk back into RV for lunch or nap.

Welcome!

Welcome Fishinggunny

We also moved up from a Viking pup. We purchased a Jayco X20E from the Sport line as well. We pick it up in early May. Looking forward to the camping season to begin

Congratulations, I think you'll really like it. We went to a 17Z last year from a Class A motorhome. Wish we done it years ago, this is all the camper we need.

We also moved up from a Viking PUP to a TT. We loved our Viking but after 8 yrs it was time for us to move up to something with less work. Enjoy your new Jayco.

We moved up from a 16' Scamp to a Model 242. Haven't had a chance to use it yet - c'mon spring!

Congratulations!

We bought our 17Z last year and have used it in NC, VA and TN mountains and beach. You are going to really enjoy it. We moved up from a pop up and it adds a whole new dimension to camping. Hope to get it out next month and head down to FL.
