So far we are very happy with it. We have a short weekend trip planned in September for a maiden voyage. Planning on driveway camping this weekend as a dry run to get acquainted with her. Looking forward to it!
It is in nice shape, the pictures really don't do it justice. Very nice people that sold it to us as well, very helpful and took the time to show us how a lot of things work and any work he had done to it just so we knew exactly what we were getting.

Thanks all for the compliments. She isnt new or very fancy but it'll suit our wants and needs at this point. Looking forward to enjoying it.

It doesn't have to be new nor fancy, as long as it does meet your needs. My latest TT is new, but it's not really fancy and doesn't have a slide, but it too meets our needs.

Meeting your needs is all that matters.

This one honestly exceeds our needs. We started our search for a 21 footer. We happened across this one by chance thanks to a friend and Facebook. We got more than we hoped for in our price range. It's a little heavier than what I was originally looking for also but with the WD hitch and some minor mods to the TV I should be fine.

Congrats! At least you got something way better than they built now. Many have to find that out yet. Treasure the Swan.............

So, not trying to knock jayco but from ALJO's comment are they not built as well as the used to be? I know alot of things have gone that way. I'm in the automotive industry and the quality there is horrible these days. I buy vehicles made in the 90's to get better quality. May have to do some repairs at first but when done right they hold up very well. So I'm guessing it is the same scenario with campers as well?
