Jayco or Grand Design
Purchasing first travel trailer. Can’t decide between the 2021 Jayco 224bh or the Grand Design 2400bh. Would appreciate any input as to the better constructed, longer lasting brand. Thanks Chris

A few years ago I would have pointed you to Grand Design, now that it is no longer privately owned, just flip a coin.
Sheeze, I had always heard GD was top notch. Not anymore?
So they sold out and the corporate hacks came in and trampled over quality control for speed, like everyone else? What a shame.
OP: As always mentioned in this forum -
Buy a good toolbox and stock it well. Plan on doing many small fixes along the way. If your not a handy person, learn to be or it will cost you time and money at a repair shop, even for stupid little things.
Most all new RVs will need a bit of minor tweaking. Set the bar a little low and you shouldn't be disappointed. If you're OCD you're going to get upset because it wont be like buying a brand new car.
If you somehow manage to hit the RV lottery you will either get one that will be spectacular and never need a thing done, or one that will be a never ending nightmare of repairs.
