2015 Jayco Eagle HT - 29.5 BHDS or 29.5 FBDS? - Comments
Looking at these two units for possible purchase. Anyone have either of these units and can comment on likes/dislikes, quality, reliability, etc?
So, after several years of not RVing, we have decided that now is the time to return to RVing. We reside in SoCal.
Travel plans: primarily SoCal with some trips to AZ, Utah, NV and other destinations within 1-2 days of driving one way. Typically trips will be 2-5 days 3-5 times per year (when kids are off school). We may take one longer trip for two weeks in the summer. Would love to see more of our great country when time allows; perhaps a trip through the south and to Disney World in one of our two week summer trips.
We are a family of 5: Me (age 52) DW (age 47), DS(age 10-with Autism); DS (age 15); one furry friend (mini Schnauzer). Granny may accompany on occasions.
We have owned 2 TT (24', 32'); one 5er (30'); and one Class A ('89 Bounder with 460).
We have mowed over the cost/benefit/usage/comfort/maintenance analysis of TT, 5er, Class C, and Class A until we reached paralysis! The consensus seems to be a 5er for our intended uses. Sometimes the analysis doesn't come out in favor of economic efficiency....but comfort, safety, and enjoyment are priceless when your kids are getting older (and parents are getting older too!) and the time you have with them is limited. Our 10yo will probably be with us until we can longer care for him and he will join us on ALL adventures well into the future!
Thanks in advance!
Below is a link to both if anyone would like to comment on the floor plans, standard equipment, etc
