Jayco has been around forever so they must be doing something right.
'Though now no longer a family business as it was during all those "forever" years, having been ***Link Removed*** to mega giant Thor Industries. Too early to say if that's good or bad but Jayco founder Lloyd Bontrager would probably be rolling in his grave if he knew the family had finally sold out his beloved creation. :(
It seems that the consences is that the Jayco JLX ultralights are "thrown together". Is this what most people think of these. Now I'm thinking steer clear of the cheaper anything ?.
I appreciate everyones advice. We just got back from a dealer today that sells KZ. We thought they were pretty cool overall. Seemed to be well made but I don't understand how I see so many trim flaws on everything. Even the KZ we looked at had wall paper trim literally glued to the bottom of the window sill. What's with that?. Another had an outlet that was partially screwed into the wall missing the studs and crooked. This is like the stuff you would see in the 1970's Chrysler vehicles. Then, I can't understand this tire stuff. Why put such cheap junky tires on Trailers?. I hear of so many blowouts. Then people talk about axles breaking. We also saw a few Livin Lite's. One looked like a bullet nose 17 foot Vista Cruiser which was really nice, but my wife thought it was overpriced for what you get but it appeared to be very high quality.
