Opinions on Jay Feather X213

[MTsparky]

New to the Jayco family with the new to me X213 Baja. Wondering anyone’s opinion who’s had one, how they’ve liked it and how’d it hold up? I pick it up on Saturday from the dealership! The kids and I are excited to hit the mountains and do some camping!

reputation for being tongue heavy.

Just sold our 2012 last year .Like has been mentioned, too heavy on the tongue. Mine was 1100LBS with not too much in the front storage. Also, don't get any water leaks. The siding used is horrible stuff that cant be repaired and delaminates at the sight of any water. Not sure if Jayco got their crap together or not, but if they are not using Azdel on their new trailers, walk away. Another issue is that they are too low. The dump valve is too close to the ground making it vulnerable to uneven terrain, and difficult to dump using a honey wagon. Familiarize yourself as to how the rear slide works. They use grade 2 bolts as shear pins, and guess what? They shear causing the slide out to jam at an angle. Keep a few spare in case this happens. (1/4"-20 X 1 1/2")
My next trailer will be a Dutchmen.
