Maiden voyage New 32 IBTS
Made the maiden voayge with the new Jayco 32 IBTS to Nascar race in Bristol Tn and back. New rig is 2ft 5inches longer than old rig but did not notice any difference in handling still no sway and it was quite windy Monday on the way home 12 hr drive both ways for us 11 1/2 hrs drive time 1/2 hr spend with fuel stops and bathroom breaks. Looks like we have lost about 1/2 mpg in fuel economy with the longer heavier rig and need a little more caution in and out of gas stations with extra tail swing but with the Reese dual cam set-up and the Dodge dually still a very comfortable towing experience. With the triple slides the inside is much roomier, the outside door to the bathroom makes the bath shower area large enough to comfortably get dressed, and the outside kitchen is handier than I thought it would be. Wife is still trying to adjust where to store things in new layout but no negatives so far. Old trailer was a Jayco 29 GBH.
