I have a 2014 Jay Flight Swift 195RB trailer. When I used it for the first time this season, several unusual electric problems happened. I'm curious if someone who understands this type system might...

We frequently travel with several shih tzu, and they are fine in the trailer (and motorhome before our new trailer). Be careful with your windows. They can destroy blinds if they can get to them to...

I have the 195RB Baja and tow with a Nissan V6 pickup with the same tow limits as yours. I've had no problems. I did add an auxiliary transmission cooler and a anti-sway/weight distribution hitch...

The 195RB gets 6 gallons of water off the tongue. I am using a weight distribution hitch (Anderson) and it tows well, although I haven't towed full of water yet.

Jayco says both models have a 26 gallon fresh water capacity. Somewhere I saw that they planned to add 10 gallons for Baja versions. But mine is around 44 gallons not counting the water heater.

I think the furnace is 10,000 - 12,000 BTU, but can't find that info anymore. One interesting difference between the 185RB and 195RB Bajas is the placement of the water heater. The 185RB has it by...

Frig is gas or electric. I have the heater BTU somewhere. Will try to find that. The heater is plenty sufficient to keep things toasty. The edges around the A/C are not sealed particularly well. I...

Others here have considerably more experience than I do with TTs. I recently got the 195RB Baja (and looked carefully at the 185RB). There is plenty of clearance for off road travel. The tires are...

Thank you Threebutchers. For years driving my motorhome and getting just under 8 mpg, I always thought if I could just get 12 mpg, it would save a lot.

Thank you Threebutchers. The truck was my dad's and almost never was used. It has 100K miles on it now and is perfect mechanically. I expect it has 10 more good years in it.

The GCWR for the truck is 7200 lbs. Truck weighs 3500 lbs with just me in it. With someone else in the truck and the TT water tank full, it will be close to the maximum but not in excess. I think the...

Thanks Mike for the input. I'm a bit confused. The listed GVWR on the door is 4700 lbs. While I've yet to weigh the truck, the curb weight I've found online is 3175 lbs. Subtracting leaves 1525 lbs,...
