- The_LogansExplorerCongratulations!
If you ever get the chance to take the free Jayco factory tour, do it!
It is a great introduction to the company and the products, and there is a LOT to see and do in the area. When we need something done, we make a week of the trip and play tourist while the RV is getting worked on.
You'll love the rubber roof! We got caught in a hail storm and just lost a MaxxAir hatch cover... two of the other campers had parts of their fiberglass roofs shattered. The rubber is much more forgiving.
Enjoy your new baby!! - rtriple777ExplorerI went with a 2015 jayco redhawk,I had a fiberglass roof on a Itasca Cambria and had nothing but problems with roof leaks on a brand new coach!The jayco has had some minor problems but nothing compared to some of the motorized units we have had before

Our daughter and family purchased a new Jayco travel trailer last year and are glad for the two year warranty. Seems every trip they make something is added to the list for when it goes back to dealer before warranty expires.
Good Luck

Class C purchases are big event for many given the cost, at least it was a big decision for us. Although the internet can be a great source of information you have to weed out the facts from the opinions and the stories about someone's brother's best friends aunt once had an RV that...
There is no perfect RV or manufacturer. There are complaints on every manufacturer out there and there are also very happy customers for each manufacturer. - BumpyroadExplorer

bumpy - badbob1ExplorerWe looked at the Winni and the Forest River side by side and also considered a Jayco when we purchased our new motorhome. Ended up with the Forest River Solera as price was better than the winni. Jayco was very nice also but liked the build quality of the Forest River and wanted the Sprinter chassis. We are very happy with the choice we made. Our daughter and family purchased a new Jayco travel trailer last year and are glad for the two year warranty.

BadBob - super_camperExplorerWe had similar RV's on our short list we when we bought new - at the time it was access, sunseeker, greyhawk.
We narrowed it down to greyhawk and access, the sunseeker quality didn't match the other two in our opinion, mostly in finishing materials like fabrics. I think we would have been happy with either the access or greyhawk but greyhawk had a better warranty and price, by quite a margin actually. The greyhawk turned out to be a great unit.
BTW: the TPO roof is no problem whatsoever when maintained properly, of course the fiberglass sheeting requires about the same maintenance anyway. - BumpyroadExplorergo with the fiberglass roof. speaks volumes about quality.
bumpy - The_LogansExplorerGo with the longer warranty, it says volumes about the builders commitment to their products.
I think that I would be very uncomfortable with a company that dosn't believe enouth in their own products to offer a two year warranty.
Just my opinion... - lonniegordonExplorerwe did look at the Minnie Winnie 31H, and liked it. Other than the roof, we also liked the Jayco, which was a much better price. The Sunseeker was closer in price, but I had heard mixed reviews of forest river. I now realize you can hear mixed reviews of most brands
