Just noticed Jayco is not offering the full body paint option on the 2020 models.

Their dealer Focus Group has a big influence on this kind of stuff. It was probably not a big seller and actually slows down delivery time.

Yes, I couldn't justify the cost...........or should I say DW didn't justify the extra cost when we ordered ours.

We have the full body paint. Love it! We ordered it in Feb and received it in Aug. It is a 2020 Pinnacle. Don't know about current orders though.

The other option, just get the standard exterior, then go get a full body vinyl wrap on the rig, like I did.

Less costly then the paint job, and you can customize it anyway you want.

You'll wish you would have opted for the FBP in a year or two when it all starts oxidizing because of the cheap gelcoat they use. In my opinion it doesn't matter that almost all manufacturer have this same problem. It pisses me off overtime I think about how much we payed for this unit to have major oxidizing issues after only 4 yrs. And yes the exterior has been maintained regular.

Unless you get the Polymer Exterior Protection Package, comes with a 5 yr guarantee and the bugs wash right off with the rain too. A h--l of a lot cheaper than Full Body Paint. Never did wax it either. People have called it "Snake Oil", but it works..

Have they changed the basic sidewall structure on Eagles in the last couple years? Our 2017 Eagle 321 has smooth high gloss side structure. The new 2020 Eagle 317 we looked at today seemed to have lower gloss with more fiberglass weave in it.
