The 2016s

[Lessmore]

I ordered 5-7 and still don't have a VIN, but my salesman is still saying 6-26. I finally found a 2016 online in my model today!! http://http://www.keystonervcenter.c...er-pa-i1688913

I just heard from my dealer. The 2016 Jay Flight 28 BHBE we ordered on March 31'st just arrived. When we ordered we were told to expect it just after Memorial Day and it has arrived as promised.

You must be living right! I ordered two weeks before you and am still 2-3 weeks out or more.

Yay! Enjoy!

When I was looking for an RV I would use RVTrader.com and search by year and model then I would go through the different pic's posted. I don't use location because I don't care where they are I wanted to look at a variety of pics. You don't always find all options available in pic's but you get a pretty good variety to look over. For example I did a search on the Jay Flight 28BHBE and found a pretty good variety to look over.

That's what I've been doing everyday for the last 3 weeks and finally found one yesterday. I was told this morning that I have a ship date of 7-6.

Any word on whether the traditional J-Cube will be an option in the 2016s as opposed to the awful "gaming" chairs?

Also, congrats to those that have gotten their new units or have them on the way. Sorry to hear about the delays for others, hang in there. I'll be going through this next year, at least I know what to brace for.

We ordered ours in April and our Sales person told me we will not get ours til the 1st week in August. She said we missed the current run. Needless to say we are super disappointed. We also were told 6-8 weeks for delivery. More like 12-15 weeks.

I was told there would not be an option for the standard J-Cube on an Eagle.

Like you, I think the game chair concept leaves much to be desired.

That said, I went with the 2015 Eagle 314BHDS that I ordered.

I have no idea what to expect now. Were recently told a completion date of 6/5. Just need it by 1st week of July which will be 15 weeks after ordering. That will leave 4 weeks for delivering to West Coast if it is built in time. Praying...

Is yours not coming out of the Idaho plant?

I'm pretty sure not. Feel like I was charged for shipping from Indiana. That was always my impession. Which models are built there? I purchased through Indiana Rv.

I was told by my dealer that all of the models are made in Idaho, perhaps I misunderstood. I know mine is coming out of the Idaho plant.

Yup, it's out by Twin Falls.

We may be the first to own a 2016 whitehawk! Got it setup at our lake cottage. No issues thusfar. Everything we have tested works great. A neat surprise was the LED lighting above the slide inside, looks super nice lighting up the barreled ceiling. One disappointment is the showerhead, no shutoff lever/button so you have to shut the water off at the knobs each time and adjust for temp each time. going to swap that out.

Congratulations! Thanks for sharing the photos and your initial impressions. Did you get the solid surface counter tops? Ours is on order w/ solid surface but I've not been able to find any actual photos to see how they look in the TT.

You can purchase the on/off valve for 5 bucks in the plumbing dept of most big box home stores. It just screws in the hose at the spray handle.

Looks great waltah! Fantastic spot too, WOW!

FWIW the Jayco home page shows a picture of a 2016 Jay Flight. There are 4 pictures that rotate every few seconds. It's one of those pics.

And not to bring a sour note to the thread, but our 23MB took 14 weeks to arrive at the dealer. We were told 8-10 weeks. I'm not sure which state it was built in though.

this is how i feel about our 2014 ... so glad i ran out and got one of the last 2014 we could find with the options we wanted .... i have not seen one 15 or 16 that make us feel like we should have waited
