i would definitely choose the Jayco over the Kodiak. Dutchmen's reputation for customer service is not stellar or even average.
just so you know, trailers in this size/weight range, have extremely poor CCC's(cargo carrying capacity).
the Jayco has 715lbs. and the Kodiak has 742lbs.
the weights of the "options" that all trailer have, the battery, the propane and the water have to be subtracted from those numbers.
meaning you will only have around 250-300lbs. for cargo.
and the Kodiak's GVWR will be over 3500lbs., while the Jayco's is 3500lbs.
