It's my first brand new RV I've every owned. I'm excited so far. Even without a slide, it's feels much larger than the Koala 21CS I just sold. The Koala had a 18" shallow slide.

Got that pesky reconstruction of the forward cargo hold (pass thru storage) and bed platform to do first plus some preventive maintenance on the aft cargo hold (right rear storage compartment).
Have to put in a panel to protect the black flush water line from getting damaged by stuff I will store in that compartment.

Will probably be the 3rd week in July before the real maiden voyage happens.
Will also take her out in August at least one weekend.However, the real workout begins in September. We'll be on the road almost every weekend, and sometimes 9 days in a row during football season.

Being 2' longer and a full 8' wide compared to your Koala which was only 7.5" wide your new Jayco should feel much larger - because it is. Contrary to what slide pundits claim here on the forums a trailer doesn't necessarily have to have a slide to be comfortably spacious. :W

Congrats! :B
