We love our 16' 26.5BHS!! Perfect size, not to big. Just one kid now but having bunks is great. We're in Northern Nevada but purchased ours from Richardson's RV in Riverside, CA and the sales experience was great. I love having all the room, and nice that only about 24' of the overall length is behind the truck.

We previously owned a Fleetwood Southwind. We enjoyed being able to travel inside the camper, but did not like the limited mobility we had once at a specific location. We opted not to tow a vehicle. I like the thought of having my home and vehicle where ever we go. We have a 4 year old and 11 year old still at home. We traveled a lot with our older children and can't wait to share the RVing experience with the younger ones.

We are new to the 5th wheel market, but I have done tons of research on affordable 5th wheel bunkhouses. Given the quality and price point, we decided upon the Jayco Eagle HT.

I would greatly appreciate any input regarding your experiences. We are considering doing some long term RVing during the summer months and weekend excursions during the winter months. We have purchased a Chevy Silverado 3500 to tow the camper.

Thanks!!!!
Hi we looked at the HT also, only thing we didn't like was the low ceiling in master bedroom. Ended up with Eagle RSTS lots roomier, had it for a year!Just got back from Lost Dutchman state park Apache Junction AZ.Happy Trails

Hi We have a 26.5 bhs and really like it. Two Boys 15 and 11 very good space. Front bedroom is big enough. The only issue limited outside storage. Other than that I would highly recommend it.
