Is a Jayco RV Right for You?

Jayco Quality and Inspections

Jayco RVs are known for high-quality construction. Some of their top construction and/or safety features are:

  • INTEGRATED A-FRAME ON TOWABLE RVS

Jayco takes their frames a step further by using an integrated A-frame. This is when the A-frame runs through the main frame to prevent the hitch from buckling. (Learn more about Jayco’s frame construction here.)

Jayco uses this integrated A frame to create a sturdier, safer chassis for their towable RVs. A strong foundation means sturdier construction that will last longer, just like it would on a house.

Jayco’s roof system can withstand 4,500 lbs. making it the strongest roof of these top manufacturers. Consider your Jayco RV safe from falling trees and heavy snow loads because this roof handles mother nature better than all the competition.

Forest River, Grand Design and Keystone use stacked and tack welded frames of their towable RVs. Tack welding creates a strong, sturdy frame.

  • GOODYEAR TIRES

Like Grand Design and some Keystone models, Goodyear tires come standard on Jayco RVs. These are not just some of the strongest tires on the road, but they are also rated for 80 mph travel. Many manufacturers use tires rated at just 60 mph.

Added capacity to move faster down the freeway can make a big difference in your safety. Not to mention it can save you from pricey repairs. RVers regularly zip along the freeway at speeds beyond the capacity of their tires. Exceeding your tire capacity can lead to blown tires and may result in expensive damage to your RV.

Jayco also includes galvanized steel wheel wells on their RVs. This way, on the off chance a blowout does happen, the strong wheel wells lessen the impact and reduce the otherwise more extensive damage caused by an incident like this.

Most trailers include rear lights in the lower corners of your RV to alert the driver directly behind you when you brake or turn. Jayco goes a step further by adding lights at the top of the RV.

Upper lights alert the drivers further down the road that you’re braking or turning. These added lights keep you and those around you safer on the road. 

  • BUNK CAPACITY

Jayco almost doubles the competition with their 300 lb. single bunk capacity and 600 lb. capacity for the double sized bunks. Higher weight capacities mean Jayco bunks are safe and ideal for adult friends and family—not just kiddos.

You can also use the bunks for extra storage when you’re in travel mode. Got 130 bricks you gotta bring along? The bunks can handle it! (Okay, you’re not bringing bricks—but 600 lbs. is a lot of storage capacity!)

Jayco Service Record and Warranty

14.7% of the Jayco RVs Bish’s RV sold in 2022 needed warranty service work in their first year on the road. Compare this to Keystone RV at 15.4%, Grand Design at 16.4%, and Forest River at 20.2%

Jayco RVs have fewer service needs in the first year, plus Jayco includes an extra year of warranty coverage on their new RVs. 

Jayco PDI

100% of Jayco RVs go through an extensive, and expensive, PDI (pre delivery inspection) process to ensure your RV is road ready before it’s sent to a dealership.

Grand Design is the only other manufacturer to provide this service.

Jayco Warranty

The standard warranty on a new RV is 1-year limited and 3-years structural. Jayco provides and extra year to allow the owner to fully test it out and work through any manufacturing defects.

JAYCO’S TOWABLE RV WARRANTY

For all of their new towable RVs—travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers—Jayco provides a 2-year limited and 3-year structural warranty.

JAYCO’S MOTORIZED RV WARRANTY

For motorized RVs—Class A Diesel, Class A, Class B, Class C—Jayco provides 2 years or 24,000 miles (whichever comes first) of limited warranty protection plus the standard 3 year structural warranty.

Pros and Cons of Jayco RVs

You need to know the benefits and drawbacks of Jayco RVs before you decide if one is right for your RV adventures. Consider these factors to decide whether Jayco builds the right RV for you.

Jayco Pros:

  • Options: Jayco builds towable and motorized RVs. If you decide Jayco is a manufacturer you trust to build your future RV, you’ll find many different high-quality models and floor plans, making it more likely you can find the motorhome or camper that fits your needs.
  • Build Quality: Jayco builds their RVs with your safety and satisfaction in mind. The unique features we’ve mentionedhere like the towable A-frame, magnum truss roof system, Goodyear tires, Jaysmart lighting, and high bunk capacity, are all examples of this.  
  • Service Record and Warranty: The lower service needs of Jayco RVs and the extra year of warranty coverage can provide a sense of security and peace of mind when you buy a new Jayco RV.

Jayco Cons:

  • Price: If price is your top concern and you’re looking for the least expensive option, you may want to look at another manufacturer. Jayco RV are priced competitively – especially considering the features and quality they offer – but Jayco RVs are not always the cheapest option. Jayco uses quality control measures and building materials that add to the cost of their RVs and includes features that less expensive RVs may not.

    If you’re looking for a lower priced RV, you may want to consider Keystone or Forest River.

  • Weight: Towable Jayco RVs are built with sturdy, heavy-duty steel and wood frames. These features provide solid construction, but they can also make Jayco towables 150 to 300 lbs. heavier than similar RVs.

    Depending on your towing vehicle, the added weight may leave you with less available weight for cargo capacity.

    If your tow vehicle requires something lighter to safely tow, or you want more cargo capacity you will want to buy from another RV manufacturer with lighter options.

    If you’re considering the Jay Flight, for example, but it’s heavier than what you feel comfortable towing, you may want to try the Prime Time Tracer.
