For me, the Eagle made more sense when we purchased a month ago. We looked at North Point, Pinnacle, and Eagle mid bunks as my wife had her mind set on a particular floor plan for our twin infant twin boys and us. 1) I already had a new Denali 3500 SRW 2) I wanted to avoid needing a dually because of garage space/etc. The Eagle was a sweet spot for weight and bang for buck. It wasn't about the money; it was about weight and tow vehicle capability. This video helped me drop the machismo of wanting the NP/Pinnacle. Thanks Josh. I should have called you guys. NEXT TIME.

When I explain Jayco 5th wheels, I use GM as my example. Eagle would be the Chevrolet, Buick is North Point, Pinnacle is Cadillac. Now I'm an Eagle HT guy cause I have a fishing boat I like to take with me. People always ask me, if I have a boat, why not buy a motorized rv? My answer is simple, when I have to take the boat out of the water, i would have to break camp to do it. If I need to go somewhere on an emergency, I'd have to break camp again. With the 5th wheel, its parked and my truck is the chase vehicle. My favorite floorplan was the HT 27.5RLTS, but it looks like that layout has been "modified" with a new designation.

Having watched multiple videos from full-time KZitemrs regarding their various solar and lithium installations I think it would be great to hear the perspective of an installer/dealer like Haylett. Factory install vs. dealership, solar panel sizes, battery sizes, charge controllers, battery monitors, where things can be installed in different types of trailers, etc. Or whatever else the team at Haylett can think of. I know there is short video overview from about a year ago with Aaron but was hoping for something more in depth. I recognize solar is very specific to each individual owner so it may not be possible. Finally, could a solar-lithium install from Haylett be rolled into the finance package of a purchase?

I've thought about how to go about this a few times, but the trick with solar it's it's NOT a "one size fits all" kind of thing. Rather.. it's 100% "What size fits you?" So there's no direct way to really address the topic other than to make a video saying "I don't know how much solar you need so call us?" Which feels like I'm just annoying people LOL *FINANCING:* Any accessory (batteries included) can be included as part of a financed purchase. But understand lenders have ceiling limits on RV purchases & going a little too crazy may risk your loan's approval. Whenever possible I ALWAYS recommend covering accessories out of pocket & financing as little as possible.

@@JoshtheRVNerd About halfway through typing my comment, I figured it would be an almost impossible task because of the individuality of each solar setup. But I went with "it can't hurt to ask" because if anyone could do it I thought you could. Maybe you will get the opportunity to film some solar installations and put them out as examples of what can be done. Thanks for the response about financing, great information. Looking forward to the next video as always.

Great video, as always. You touch on weight differences, you may consider mentioning differences in height. Looks like quite a difference in height and it makes a difference for storage and towing. Great video!

The apex height is actually quite similar, but Eagle dips down in front as a "mid profile" unit. Mid pro and high pro just don't mean what they used to anymore.

Hey Josh As always, your videos are very informative. I currently have a 2019 Mesa Ridge 2410rl. The wife and I and 16yr old son are looking to upgrade in the near future. We are still trying to decide whether to stay with travel trailer or move up to 5th wheel. I've pulled lots of bumper pull trailers for thousands of miles but never a 5th wheel. Your thoughts please?

Kind of depends on the size you're looking to get into. One-slide sizes are usually going to lend themselves to trailers, but as you go larger there's no denying FW towing is much nicer for longer distances like you seem to enjoy

North Point having 6-point Hydraulic leveling system is cool. After watching the whole video, I've come to the best for Me. Because I don't Travel(pretty much at all), I'd pick the North Point for Me. I haven't seen the Interiors on these much, but Technically North Point makes more sense for Me. Good ones. Thanks.

Josh, you always accomplish what you set out to do. I am one of your target buyers for these Jaycos. I like both rigs alot. I can see a new Ford F-150 Powerboost with the 7.2 KW generator hooked up to an Eagle (just because of the weight limits). Hopefully, the money I save buying the Eagle will help pay for the Powerboost. Josh, what do you think?

I need to learn more about the Powerboost feature. Right now it's all I can do to even keep up with the RV market let alone all the new stuff coming from the auto industry lol

I love your comparison videos! In the near future I will be in the market for a trailer, and your videos have been very helpful! Unfortunately a 5th wheel won't work for us (family members with mobility issues, the extra stairs are a hazard) but I still enjoy learning about them!
