Thanks for finding the link, mocad!!

Mineral is quite horrid in a bunk house. Most people I would guess buy a bunkhouse because they have kids. That looks almost white. Kids, camping, mud and white furniture Yeah that is NOT a good combo lol.

I'm not digging that light over the dinette at all. I like the pucks in my 2015 much better. I was excited to see how they made room for a trashcan but now that I see it thats a let down. I like the charging station by the bed and power outlets in the bunks. I thought it was dumb the bunks didn't have power and just ran and extension cord to ours. Not a big fan of the wood floor look with the wood everything else. Where are the big dinette drawers? I was looking forward to seeing those. The bunk nets are kinda silly might keep my daughter from losing her phone thats about it. Having seen it I am happy I got a 2015 and didn't wait. I haven't seen any upgrades in that picture that I'm jealous of really.

only pics i have are bad quickies from salesman but ill post them tonight. then tomorrow ill snap some good ones. our interior is much lighter color, refreshing to see from all the dark ones out there.

[waltah]

busy night, ill post some pics tomorrow, the twilight interior is awesome. lighter earth tones instead of the really dark stuff. Im super super super impressed with the build quality vs. all of the many trailers we have been in. lots of pleasant surprises.

I, also am happy i got the 2015 28 BHBE. The upgrades are not enough to make me regret our purchase. We got a great deal when we bought, and enjoy every moment we spend in it.

where did you see the things you listed? i didnt see them on here aside from the wheels.

The features I listed are part of the JayFlight upgrades not the White Hawk.

First YouTube video of a 2016 White Hawk that I've been able to find. This one has the cloth interior.

Jayco confirmed my trailer is done but I still haven't been able to get a date on when it will be at the dealer. I can't believe what a convoluted process this is.

the last time i talked to jayco was may 15th and they told me it was off-line waiting for parts. Next thing I know my salesman calls and it was there may 19th. Good luck!

here are some pics of mine, sorry for terrible quality. some are from saleman and the others are me rushing because we had other stuff going on after seeing the camper.

What all these delays are telling us is the manufacturer is operating as fast as possible in manufacturing these units. Demand is out the roof right now in the RV Industry. The poor delivery guys are spread about as far as they can be spread. I just hope the quality does not suffer.

23 May: We just spoke with our dealer, who confirmed that our 23MRB has been ordered. I asked whether it's true that they wait for 5-6 orders before tooling up for any given model, and he said not with the new season's models. He guesstimated that somewhere between 500 and 1500 of the 23MRBs will be built and distributed around the country. He said that he'll wait a week and then ask about the status of ours, and hopes then to get a ~tentative~ delivery date. Once we get a VIN, we'll know better when to expect it. We don't have a trip scheduled until July, so we're not worried (yet). We kind of wish we'd seen the pix Waltah posted sooner, though. If we had, we might not have changed our upholstery order from Twilight to Shadow. We like the pix we've seen of Shadow, too, though.

If you just placed your order you can still change the interior color. I was told changes could be made all the way up till a week before it goes on the production line.

We have a 2016 precept..but the vin shows as a 2015 when getting insurance..go figure..its built on a 2015 chasis..if i can get 2015 ins rates..then go with it..its very confusing..

I just got an update from my dealer this morning and not only can they not give me a delivery window they also said an RV convention starts at the end of this week so all incoming deliveries will be put on hold for 1-2 weeks. I can't believe this........

I texted my salesman this morning, he said he'll check and get back to me... I'm still waiting. If you're NOT sure when it will be ready DO NOT tell people 6-8 weeks. It's 8 weeks to the day for me today.

Today is the start of week 10 for me. My salesman told me when I ordered it that in 13yrs he had never seen one go longer than 9 weeks. Looks like it will be more like 12-13 weeks......And I had to cancel my 2nd trip for the year that was scheduled for next week. I honestly am not trying to come on here and whine but this has been one of the most frustrating buying experiences I have ever had. I am glad I don't operate my construction company the way Jayco does their new orders; I would be out of business.

[waltah]

I figured I would be hearing of other people getting theirs as well, can't believe they are still pushing off your dates. Hang in there, like I said, the dealer had no idea mine shipped and it literally showed up 2 days after i talked directly to Jayco and they said it wasn't finished. So they move fast once it is done. Hang in there folks.

[blderman]

Jayco responded to me this morning and said our trailer is actually still in quality assurance and they don't know how long it will take nor can they provide a ship date. I just cannot wrap my mind around this. How in the world do they operate a business that cannot set and meet any commitments?

[wildwillie]

Unbelieveable! How can a manufacturing operation run without a schedule?

[MikeNChelle]

My salesman got back to be late yesterday. Says I am slated for June 18th. "Right in the 8-12 week time frame we discussed".
That's WRONG!!! There was never a 8-12 week lead time ever discussed. I have all of my notes that all say 6-8 weeks. I will never order again that's for sure. Just saying.
