I don't want to change this thread around but you may want to look at another angle.
Why are you choosing the Jay Flight Swift 264BH over the standard Jay Flight 26BH?? Same floorplan but Swift is not much lighter and is actually more expensive when you consider the options.
When I was looking, just adding some basic options bought the price nearly the same. Also, Jay Flight includes most options that the Jay Flight Swift has as an option. With same options, their weights are about the same.
The biggest differences is that Swift doesn't have in floor ducting, they use above floor ducting that eats a lot of storage space. They also use an inferior A/C that is only controlled by it's own control and not the trailers thermostat. It is ducted in the ceiling but it will run continuous instead of shutting off when not needed. Just like a standard none central AC but with ducts.
Other shortcuts are in storage areas where dividers have been deleted under beds. Also Swift models do not have the higher fresh water capacity as the standard Jay Flights.
Just making sure you are aware of this as the Swift models just seemed like a bad deal next to the standard line.
BTW, I've had excellent luck with Jayco and I was afraid I would be jumping into a trouble pit like I did previously with Forest River. I stick with Jayco because they make a great product, stand behind it, and have a great support staff.
