Adding one to the list, Jayco
Well if all goes right we will be buying our toy hauler in the next two weeks. Looking at Fuzion 424, Cyclone 4270, Momentum 399TH and just ran across a Jayco 4113 we really liked. A little nervous ...

You're comparing 3 rigs that fall under the Thor Industries umbrella to a Grand Design.
There is nothing special about any of the 4 that would guarantee you better build quality. Look at the individual unit you intend to buy as the one that pops out the factory door at 9 AM could be perfect, and the next 3 junk with any of them.
Grand Design has better communication and support after the sale, or so they claim, and owners and their forums also seem to indicate this but at the same time they use no better methods or materials than the others. Toy Haulers are the lowest volume seller other than popups and most are built in the same factory, on the same line, by the same workers with the same garbage as the manufacturers other products such as TTs or 5ers.
This entire industry is racing to the next economic downturn at lightspeed and quality of the product or customer satisfaction is not high on the corporate priority list with any of them. The focus is pulling in as much profit as possible before the sheet hits the fan and the whole thing implodes, which it has often, always does, and will again. Theyre on borrowed time in that regard.
Find one on a dealers lot you like and inspect thoroughly. Whatever you do shy away from ordering one. You never know what you'll get.
