Model year differences
I posted this on the Jayco forum, so apologies for the redundant message. I’m currently shopping for a jayco eagle 29.5bhds, and I’m curious if there are any major differences between the 2018, 20...

a quick look shows the MSRP on a 2020 could be around $62,000.00 depending on options and location..
The 2020 at $47,995.00 would be about 26% off
The 2018 at $39,995.00 would be about 35% off the MSRP for 2020 which I am sure is higher that it would have been in 2018
IF I am taking that 2018 , I would be making sure it was worth my aggravation... The tires are already at least 2 years old on the sidewalls... the graphics are already 2 years into fade, ect...ect...
that is NOT ENOUGH of a discount for me to take the 18
Thanks for the reply. I agree with you on all counts. So far, I’ve only obtained internet offers, so I’m not even close to being done. The 2018 needs to come down a few thousand more or I won’t take it. I also need to speak with Jayco about having warranty work performed more local to my home. I’m sure that won’t be a big snag.
Regarding tire wear and decal fade, one thing I have going for me is that I live in the Pacific NW, where the climate is milder than anywhere I’ve lived previously. No humidity, no sun beating down, winters are mild, etc. Tires and decals *should* be OK, but your point is still valid. They need to acknowledge it financially. 2 years is 2 years, and a difference of $7K, while significant, isn’t as much when you factor in long term ownership. If I can get the 2018 down to $35K, it will be enticing.
