You may have seen the other posts that my Jayco 26.5 RLS is very probably headed to the scrap yard due to roof/water/delamination issues.
Sticker weight is 6,845, with pin of 1,285. Since I'm towing with an F150, I don't have much margin to go up in pin weight.
Any suggestions as to brands/models I should be taking a look at besides Jayco? New or recently used (say, 2010-2012 or after) would be considered.
Any reason you don't want to go with the same unit? And maybe do whatever maintenance it takes to avoid leaks. I doubt if it was the trailers fault that there was a leak. And that looks to me like a good choice in its class.
I've had good luck with our Cougar, and they make one or two in the same approx. size. I don't think you'll find anything measurably better in that weight class.
