Anyone have this model TT 2008 Jayco 32BHDS - JAYFLIGHT G2? Do you like it or dislike it? We looked at one this weekend and fell in love with it. When we camp it usually me, dh, dd, sometimes dsil and 2 grandsons, this one looks like it would give us plenty of room and I love the backdoor that opens into the bathroom.
thanks

My buddy just bought one and I have looked at a few. They are nice...but as usual I found a few things about it that I didnt like but to each his own. I wish my feet didnt hit the wall when I laid down in the master bed. I am not sold on the spinning TV, I would rather have another TV in the bedroom. I dont like that the pocket doors need to be closed in order to watch the TV from the bedroom. No flip up counter extension that I could see in the otions. And if it was possible I would get the manual awaning rather than electric but my dealer says that is not possible.

I would just make sure you have TV that can tow 10,000lbs loaded.

Nice trailer. It was near the top of our list, but in the end decided we wanted 4 bunks.

I agree with Carl in that you need a substantial tow vehicle to pull this comfortably.

We have a 2006 Toyota Tundra with the towing package. Is this enough?

As nice as that Jay Flight is, your Tundra won't handle it.

That 2006 Tundra is before the new beefed up Tundra. Even the 2007 Tundra is right near the limit with that trailer. I tow a Sprinter 311BH with 2 slides and that's about all I can handle with my 07 Tundra.

My In-laws neighbor has the NEW Tundra pulling the the '08 Eagle 314BHDS (9500# dry weight, 250# less than the 32BHDS G2) and swears it pulls fine.

My loaded trailer weight is right at 10K. I would not attempt to tow it with anything less than a 3/4 ton vehicle. I imagine on flats you maybe OK . The problem starts when wind,rain,traffic and terrain are less than ideal. The 32BHDS is a nice floorplan I agree with Carl on the pocket door TV issue. Not sure I like the rear door either but they are both minor issues.

Why would he say anything else? I tow a Jayco 31 BHDS that is rates at 9200 lbs, no way I would try it with any half ton, even if it is "beefed up".
