I will throw in my experiences for what they are worth. Retired in 2005 and pretty well full timed (maybe nine months of the year) since. Bought a Jayco Designer 36' with all the bells and whistles and had great service from it, sold in 2007 on a whim, Bought a F/R Day Dreamer, I won't go in to details but it was terrible with MAJOR safety problems with disc brake and suspension problems. Factory did a terrible fix when I finally had to take it back there. I order my units with all options and would suggest you do the same when you purchase, remember you are negotiating a discount on the whole package initionally which is much cheaper than adding options later. Since 2010 I have purchased a Designer and two Pinnacles and the way that Jayco has treated me as a customer is fantastic that is why I will consider them whenever I buy. Please remember that you will run into certain problems whatever you buy it is impossible to produce a product that you tow on every type of road conditions without having to "fix" something that goes wrong. I wish you luck on your purchase and happy camping I know you will enjoy it.
