Jayco JayFlight 24FBS - 5 month review
Hi all, In February this year we bought our first travel trailer, a 2013 Jayco JayFlight 24FBS. We’ve been out about 4 times so far, for a total of 10 nights or so. We’ve towed it around 2,000 mile...

Thanks for sharing all this - very well written and honest. I will do a similar review soon for my new TT. Here's my observations:
When growing up, I had a greyhound the same color as yours - ahhh....the memories.
You have an 80-gallon fresh water tank?? I didn't know they made ones that big, especially for a 24' TT. I think ours is 40 gallons at the most.
Your TT is gorgeous inside and out - really maximizes the length. Our previous TT was 24' but did not have a couch or slide. That's why we bought a new one - it was too cramped for four people inside.
While our couch is 90 degrees to the TV, the TV can swivel. Many times I lay lengthwise on the couch, so that it makes it easy to view.
Did your TT not come with a spare tire cover?
One of the negatives for our TT is that the slide does not have side windows. Then again, the slide has the couch and the kitchen, with the dinette on the front side with a huge window view.
I had no thermostat in the previous TT - A/C high, low or fan were the only settings, so the thing ran all the time. The new TT has the digital thermostat which I love.
I was pleasantly surprised to discover that our front pass-through storage area does have a light in it. This was very advantageous on the last trip, when I was setting up in the dark!
I've never seen a slideout that drops down flush. Do you actually see that happening?
