Production Delays?

We're planning on buying a travel trailer at the Hershey show this fall. I heard that they're running behind on production due to high demand. Any idea when we could expect delivery if we order mid-Sept.? Thanks.

When we ordered our Jay Flight 21QB on Friday, December 30, 2016, we were told it would be delivered in mid-April due to "incredibly" long delays in production because of plant backups. In reality, our TT was built on February 8th and we towed it home on Monday, February 20th. YMMV, but our order obviously was not impacted by these "incredibly" long delays.

Thanks. Coincidentally that's exactly the model we're planning to buy. Are you happy with it? Any issues?

I took it out of storage last Saturday and leveled it on our driveway. We de-winterized it without any issues, I built the wall beneath the queen bed to support the plywood and tonight we will finish moving into it in preparation of our maiden voyage this weekend. We found no issues during our PDI, so far this purchase has been flawless. Word of recommendation, get a handful of 30 amp fuses, you are likely to blow a few when using the power tongue jack.

Mark, we ordered ours with the Elite Package, the Thermal Package, aluminum wheels and a ladder. We make our maiden voyage this week, but we are very pleased with the amount of storage, we upgraded from a popup, we carried a fair amount of gear in there as well as the bed of the TV. Future upgrades include a digital thermostat, a Maxxair II vent cover and a MORRyde 20x90 sliding storage self for the pass through area.
