Hi, Before I begin, we need to acknowlwdge that there is no real answer  except to say that you have to do your research, based on how you plan to full-time, where, and a host of other needs. Not to mention $'s.

I will share our experience. A few years ago,before we went full-time we looked a the Jayco 5th wheel line. We felt that the then top series was adequate for our needs and certain of the Eagle models might work as well. We looked at a Pinnacle model we liked but felt it was too heavy for our truck to safely tow (as in stop & carry weight). We were however very impressed with Jayco's two year wnty. As a result we chose Open Range, which fit our needs perfectly, and also carried the two yr. wnty. We are happy with our choice. Recently, we briefly considered an upgrade, and again looked at the Jayco line. We felt that the fit and finish could have been better, and decided to keep our Open Range. We've been full-time for two years now. We've had RV's for 40 years. All required adjustment when new. We've met many people who are full-timing in Jayco product,(and everything else you can imagine),and they are fine with that. Again, what fits your lifestyle,needs and goals are what is important. I think that the two year wnty is also a must have, and the key to that is an excellent dealer. Best, Richard

We have owned Jaycos since 1981, 2 popups, 1 travel trailer and 2 fifth wheels. We have been very satisfied with each one. We've been fulltiming in a 2008 37' Designer fifth wheel for three years. We bought it brand new. We did have a few problems with it, but both the dealer and Jayco have been excellent in warranty coverage. They even covered a few items outside of the warranty period.

We are very satisfied with our unit for fulltiming. When we buy another one, we will probably buy another Jayco. This time we will make sure to get dual pane windows, 2 air conditioners and the large refrigerator. We did replace the recliners with La-Z-Boys because the original recliners were not the best quality.

For the price you pay, we feel Jaycos are a very good quality. Of course, you can get better units but they cost more. Its a matter of choice.

We have been fulltiming in our Jayco Pinnacle for about a year and 1/2 now.
We did a lot of shopping and the Pinnacle offered more of what we were looking for and we think the Pinnacle offers a "Lot of Bang for the Buck"
We have had a few minor issues but Jayco has taken care of everything in a timely manor with out question.
So far our Pinnacle has held up very well during our travels.
We are pulling it about 10k miles a year, we have been in Texas during the summer and in the Tennessee mountians for the New Year.
Our Pinnacle has performed great in all weather conditions.

We did get the Dual Pane Windows, 12 Cu Ft Refig, Convection Micro, 2 A/C Units, MorRyde Pin Box and a few more options.

I will be the first to admit the Jayco Pinnacle is not a "Top of the Line" 5th Wheel but more of a soild mid-range 5th Wheel at a resonable price.
The Pinnacle is a solid constructed unit and a good value at its price point.

We have not regreted our decision to get the Pinnacle.

Jayco is a popular brand, but each model can be rated differently. Many folks have been happy with Jayco, some have not - a lot of that opinion about the brand is a reflection on the dealer's performance (or lack thereof) in handling any issues.

There are many Amish-built RV's - and Jayco is certainly one of the more well-known brands - in the NE Indiana area.

As per RV.org you have to look at each model and see for yourself.
