Jayco Website
Anybody else notice that Jayco no longer lists travel trailer lengths? I didn't look at every model but I was looking at some Jay Flights and not one of them listed the trailer length. I know they used to... I'm looking under 'View Spec' and it is no longer listed under 'Weights and Measurements'.

Yup. You are correct. I wonder when that changed? Length is not there on the Jay flights I just checked. It shows wheel base. Did they always show wheel base? That's strange. I wonder what that's all about.

That`s very strange and not very user friendly to not list the overall lengths.

They did the same thing with the motor homes. The lengths, at least for the motorized campers, are still listed in the "brochure" but you have to download it.

crabman did you notice the water capacities on the rig you posted. That's one huge hot water tank. 
Fairenatic... Which trailer did you post? Who gets almost 100 gallons of grey water storage!

Debating on upgrading this season or not and noticed it. To me the overall length is more important than the wheelbase... Seems odd to stop posting that.

Jayco Webiste
I don't boon dock or dry camp so even fresh, grey or black water capacity is less important than overall length...

39 feet, 3 inches, overall length. It was published just a month ago. Not sure why all the changes. Same time they posted some of the 360 degree virtual tours!

Believe crabman posted total fresh water and that includes the water in the water heater -- the water tank and water heater combined = 82 gallons.

My eyes sometimes don't coordinate with by brain!
You are correct and the puzzling part is that the Jayco website for the Jay Flight 28RLS states that very same error of fresh water capacities. The website proof reader must have a problem also!
Thanks for waking me up.

Cut straight from the website. It looks wrong. I can not imagine a 44 gallon water heater.

I believe that is yet another typo. It probably means 38 gallons standard, 82 gallons with the Elite Package which includes a larger tank.

And how are they measuring wheelbase? 301" seems very long for a trailer!
