I have the Baja edition Jay Flight SLX 245 RLW.....2017 model.
8' wide models have a 80 gallon water tank, two 30# propane tanks,
flipped axles.....(yes it sits high) and 16" "E" rated LT truck tires.
Not supplied with a TV or a power tongue jack.
Propane only water heater and NO ceiling vent.
Major systems work ok.....it's little stuff like pulled screws, shower surround jumps the track, piezo stove igniter did not fire off the back two burners.
Simmons mattress grew a canyon down the center....
Soft pine lumber, 1"1" stuff supporting the bed foundation, wafer thin luan ply tiny staples pulled out...
All fixed without batting an eye at the dealers.
Tows nice....level and smooth.
CAT loaded weight for a trip was 5490#....no water.
Since I live and use the camper in Baja....why not?
2014 F-150 handles it ok.....but I am dumping that for a 2006 Ram Laramie Cummins this weekend.
Just not enough power with that F-150....no matter what my xx#@ son in law says.
