We are absolutely jazzed to have our new Jay Flight 23MB Elite with the new black trim sitting in the driveway!
Quite a journey over the last few months, including cancelling an order on a X213 after discovering the 23MB online and ordering without seeing it in person
. None was available locally to go through before hand so went through a 23MBH noted the differences in person/online and went for it.

What we love
We also decided on the aluminum siding over the fiberglass for -
Always hard to find something which fits whether it's trailers, cars, trucks, shoes or anything else
so hope this helps a few tall guys make a decision
Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful threads which helped us tremendously

What we love
- I'm 6'5" tall and I absolutely love being able to walk around the whole trailer without ducking or even feeling like I might hit something.
- 1/2 ton pulls it easily and with the equalizer 10K Equal-i-zer® 4-Point Sway Control attached I hardly know it's there.
- 4200 pounds dry/425 tongue with every option available besides outdoor grille and chill-n-store came in weighing 4700/485 with 2 full 30 gallon propane tanks.
- Love the layout - murphy bed, huge dinette, 2 huge 6'4" x 4' bunks rated to 600lbs, 8 cu ft fridge is huge and other elite upgrades worth the extra charge.
- Dual 3500lb axles are well above the capacity we will ever load it to
- 34% of MSRP was just icing on the trailer
- Tongue to bumper 6'10" so should fit into almost every campground
- Electric awning with LED strip is pretty darn cool and lights it up amazingly
- 6'2"L x 5' murphy bed - we added a 2 inch topper to the bed which levels it with the storage at the head of the bed and really turns the bed into a 6'8"L bed, works great after some trial and error.
- Taller shower would be nice, but it's doable when needed.
We also decided on the aluminum siding over the fiberglass for -
- 400-500 lbs less weight
- No worries on delamination
- Much less cost to fix if sides are damaged
- Fiberglass looks a little better and easier to clean, but can't have it all
Always hard to find something which fits whether it's trailers, cars, trucks, shoes or anything else
