Excited New owner of Jayco WH 25BHS TT :))))

[Hybridcamp]

We are happy new owners of a Jayco White Hawk 25BHS. Yeahhh

2015 White Hawk 25BHS | Jayco, Inc.

Look forward to our first trip to with Wife and three kids.

I guarantee I will be draining many of your brains on local knowledge.

If there are any threads you all can suggest I look into, as a new owner, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you ahead of time for your help!

LOVE ours - it was the ONLY floor plan to meet our lifestyle, accommodates both boondocking (with generators) or full-hookups (add water softener). Key differentiators were: [1] could get into bed from BOTH sides (but added a queen topper, more comfortable and makes it a full queen), [2] Bunks for son and/or occasional guests, [3] Outdoor kitchen (my husband's turf). Mods so far are easy-to-do enhancements: shower on/off switch, new lav faucet, 12-volt TV w/Roku and wireless BluRay DVD, TV articulating arm. No need for a sofa - got lounge chairs for the great outdoors. Other threads? Search on key words and you'll find a ton of hints!

We are considering buying a used unit. For those of you who have had this one since 2015 any comments, concerns? The one we are buying, the out door kitchen is not there but the hatch. Looks like fiddle was removed by previous owner or they never got that option. In any event we will add in fridge etc.

Our model's outdoor kitchen came with a pull-out Coleman cooking stove and on the counter a small refrigerator and microwave and we also received a bumper-mount BBQ; there were brackets mounted to hold these appliances. We have since removed the fridge and microwave because we typically dry-camp and they didn't run off a 12v battery (unless you have an inverter). In our opinion, occupying prime space for something we probably would never use made it an easy decision. However, for people who have seasonal spots with full hookups, it would be a different matter.

Thank you Hattie. Overall, are you happy with the 2015 25BHS? No issues?

[Hattie]

Extremely happy, no major issues and we generally use it year-around dry-camping. My husband was a general contractor and a 'green' inspector and has found our rig to be well-built and relatively air-tight. Hot water heater 'blew' but was covered under warranty and we have an excellent dealer/repair. He putzes around upgrading and enhancing, but avoids making any holes, etc.; and as I recall ~ he has upgraded the bathroom fan, added a MicroAir EasyStart for the A/C, upgraded to 4 lithium batteries, changed out faucets and thermostat, installed a better TV mount, replaced the jack-stand, hardwired a Hughes Watchdog surge protector, and is installing a WeBoost and portable solar panels. Let me know through a private message if you wish to contact him.
