Jayco Hardside Pop-up (A-Frame)

Hope you really enjoy your new camper!

Enjoy making it yours!

Congrats on the purchase, enjoy it and Happy camping

Did you look at any of the other brands (Aliner, Chalet, Rockwood/Flagstaff) besides the Jayco? If so, I'd be interested in your observations about how they all compared in construction, fit and finish. I've never seen a Jayco A-frame yet.

We did look at Flagstaff, which the local dealer sells. My preference is Jayco...... guess maybe i'm brand loyal..... they have a terrific Customer Service Dept. I have always been intrigued by the A-frame idea, and when Jayco/Starcraft started building them, i wanted one. Not sure my new Jayco is better than the others, but i can say one thing, it's damn awesome looking!

Last time I looked at one of the Flagstaffs, I was pretty serious about it until I looked underneath. One of the water drains coming through the floor was about a 3/4" pipe IIRC, passing through a 2" or 2.5" hole. Nothing to keep critters or water from running right up past the pipe. I passed on the trailer.

I've heard plenty of good comments about Jaycos. You should have many years of happy camping with yours.

Sorry, would love to join the group, but not on face book

Long weekend for us here in Canada, so we took it out. Awesome is what we can say. Everything worked great,and yes, 30 seconds up n down...... ok, maybe a few minutes as we get used to it
