Jayco 26.5 RLS

Ok I have searched both this forum and google. Can't seem to find info I need. We are looking at buying another 5th wheel. Have found a 2011 Jayco 26.5 RLS HT.

Wasn't really looking for light weight, but not really a deal breaker if all is right.

I have been around RV's for awhile and of course am familiar with Jayco name but have never really paid much attention.

Here is my question - where does Jayco stand in the Quality pecking order? Are they considered entry level - mid range - upper level.

Appreciate any input on the brand in general.

Thanks

Bob
  • 2005 Jayco Designer and not one thing to complain about everything works like new and I would buy another in a heartbeat. There are units that have some better components but for an above average line of products I have no complaints and workmanship and warranty make a big difference when making a choice.
  • I've owned 7 brand new Jayco's so far...no issues with them what so ever...and yes #8 is also going to a new Jayco! You'll find that generally Jayco owners will buy another Jayco when they buy another new RV than any other brand.

    That speaks volumes about Jayco...still same family owned since 1962...

    I am on my second one spent 1300 nights in the last one over a 11 year period. So far 179 nights in my new one with only one minor problem!
  • I'd put the main Jayco line as mid, certainly not high and below your Holiday-Rambler.
    I put all "lite" rigs as lower.
