Used 2021 Jayco Jay Feather X17Z — Monticello, MN

This used 2021 Jayco Jay Feather X17Z is a compact camper on the Hybrid floor plan, listed at $12,239. At 18 ft 7 in it is a little shorter than most compact campers (21 ft 10 in). Dry weight is 3,285 lb, below the 3,774 lb median for the category.

Loaded with water, propane and gear it will sit nearer 3,900 lb, which puts it within reach of a full-size SUV or mid-size pickup. Budget for 10–15% of that on the hitch, and a weight-distribution hitch is worth fitting at this weight.

With no slide-outs there is less to maintain and one fewer thing to fail on the road.

It is listed $4,660 below the $16,899 MSRP, a 28% saving.

Fitted equipment includes rear corner bath, gas/elec. water heater w/dsi, tv antenna and outside shower. It ships from Monticello, MN door-to-door to any of the 50 states, inspected before it leaves, at one transparent price with no dealer fees.
