2006 jayco escapade
Is there anyone else that has one ? We just purchased one with 22,000 miles on it . I was wondering what you think about it and what are some of the problems you ve come across .

I had not realized Jayco had carried the Escapade model line into the 2006 year. Escapade was a basic, entry/rental trim level type C, sold fully equipped with no options, to compete with the likes of contemporary FourWinds 5000 (and badge engineered Chateau/Dutchmen lines), base level non-slideout Fleetwoods, Coachmen Freedom, and the contemporary non-slide Sunseeker models. Market for all of these was rental dealers and buyers looking for "most RV for the money, no fancy trim, no slideouts."
I'm in favor, this is where I shop, whether it is RVs, cars, houses, tools, whatever. The Escapade was as well built, on the same production lines with the same workers, as the more upscale Greyhawk and Granite Ridge lines. The Escapade was just not as fancy. Like buying an XL Ford truck, a LS Chevy, LX Honda, or SE Toyota.
If you are happy with the features and trim level, this is as good as it gets, you are buying basic quality but not extra features nor glitz.
