Looking to get back into a hybrid

Hello everybody!
Thanks for letting me join your forum!
We sold our Jayco 17A kiwi a couple of years ago and have decided we miss it and now we are looking for a replacement. This time around we want three pop-outs but still want to keep it light. I'm considering the Forest river 183, Jayco 17XFD, KZ Escape E180RBT or a Starcraft 187TB. Am I missing one? Right now I like the Roo 183 but they are hard come by in the PNW. Indiana is just too far away to drive, so I'm left trying to find a way to ship if we don't find anything local.

I can't give any input on the non-Jayco brands, but I will say we had a Jayco X23B hybrid and really liked it. We had absolutely 0 problems with it.

As far as dealers near you, have you looked on-line? RVDirect might be a good start.....

Thanks, I'll check online. Has anyone bought online and had them shipped 2500 miles? Seems that the shipping would be cost prohibitive, and then there is the warranty issue if you don't fly there and do a PPI.

Look into A Roo. They have three pop out beds on some of their models as well as a table and couch that fold to beds. Enjoy.

See if you have a Shamrock dealer nearby. They are twins to the Roo's. Built on the same line. Identical except for interior colors.
