Afraid not. Mine is a 2017 so no pandemic involved. That is just a cost saving measure.That too, is probably a partial result of the pandemic since we had lumber prices sky-rocket and a lumber shortage.

I had a JayFeather years ago that had wood but I was speaking about RVs in general, not JayFlight specifically. My prior 2 were Cruisers by Thor that had all wood but the last ones I've seen don't.I don't think the JAY FLIGHT ever had completely solid wood cabinets.

My son and daughter both had low end units that were early 2000's and neither had solid wood. Side panels were covered pressed board similar to what many home kitchen cabinets use today as well.
I purchased a 2021 Greyhawk 29 MV in January. The black water discharge was inoperable. The kitchen sink water supply leaked due to incomplete tightening. The outer door and door frame were bent. The Lippert self leveling system failed on two separate occasions. The was a 4 inch slit in the ceiling covering adjacent to a cannister light. The Ford computer control module failed while on a trip to Bozeman, Montana. There were no Ford service centers within a 275 mile radius none of which had space in their schedule. Very disappointed in overall manufacturing quality.
In September we received our one of the first off the line Thorjayco 2017 16XRB with plastic fenders. I complained bitterly, but Thorjayco said, Screw you, we can do whatever we want with our specifications including swapping Jayco's galvanized steel fenders with our cheap plastic ones.
You will find that caveat on 99% of all RV websites and brochures.
As example also from FOREST RIVER:
However, during the model year, it may be necessary to make revisions and Forest River, Inc. reserves the right to make changes without notice, including prices, colors, materials, equipment and specifications
That's what my current unit has. I don't consider $40k a low end unit though.
Walk into an Airstream dealer with 40k and you may get a shiny wheelbarrow!
