Jayco Eagle or Outdoor Rv Creekside
We are wanting to upgrade from our Jayco Jayflight 27BH. The Jayco has been trouble free for the 9 years we have owned it. We are interested in the 28 BHBE Jayco floorplan and want fiberglass purely...

Good info. I am aware that there is an option for Fiberglass on the Jayflights, however I was told they use a different process on the Jayflights vs the traditional method on the Eagle. Dealer didn't necessarily say this but hinted that the Fiberglass process on the Eagles and Whitehawks is preferred to the Jayflight?
On another note, I looked at the Creekside 27Bh today and really liked some of the features. However, I think this unit is a bit heavier than advertised. The factory lists the Creekside at 6935 full featured dry weight with 8,800 max leaving 1,865 cargo. While not finding a sticker showing the shipped weight, we did fins a sticker showing 1,000 cargo capacity. This would lead me to believe the unit dry was closer to 7800 or nearly 900 lbs more than they advertise. I realize options add weight but this seemed extreme. This may make the Creekside a no go as I need to watch tounge weight on my 2500 suburban. Anyway, was a nice unit.
