Moved over to the dark side

After 7 years of memories in our Palomino Sabre 32RCTS, we have sold the old girl and bought a new 5th wheel. It's an SOB... a Jayco Pinnacle 36KPTS.

We have learned a TON since joining this forum, made a few uneducated posts that exposed my ignorance to certain things and hopefully made a few posts that helped fellow members. Although I haven't posted anything in a LONG time, I still read this forum with regularity and will continue to do so. Just wanted to pass along a huge "thank you" to all the wonderful members on this forum that make this site what it is.

Happy trails to all.

Congrats and best of luck with your new unit, hang around as most components are the same on a lot of brands so you might still find and offer help. Enjoy that beautiful camper!!!

Congratulations, those are nice units! We're members of the dark side too with a Grand Design but this is a great forum to learn from. Enjoy your new camper!

Love my Jayflight

I have a 2014 Jayco Jayflight 287BHBE and it has thus far been a trouble free unit. If you have any problems with your 5'r, you should check out the Jayco Owners Forum, also a wealth of information if you have any brand specific questions.

Good Camping, Swampy

Congrats on the new rig. I started on the forum while still towing SOB. We were shopping for a new FR and the forum taught us a lot too.

Please stay with us. SOBs have all the same stuff and most of the time the same problems.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

TOM

I'm still on the Keystone forum and have owned a Rockwood for 2+ years. Like someone else mentioned a lot of parts are the same.
