New 2027 Jayco Jay Flight 197MB — Bossier City, LA

The 2027 Jay Flight 197MB is Jayco's travel trailer on the Bunkhouse floor plan. This one is new and listed at $18,359. At 23 ft 7 in it is noticeably shorter than the typical travel trailer (28 ft 11 in). Dry weight is 3,965 lb, well under the 5,550 lb median for the category.

Expect roughly 4,700 lb once it is loaded for a trip. That calls for a full-size SUV or mid-size pickup, with 10–15% of that on the hitch landing on the tow vehicle — a weight-distribution hitch is worth fitting at this weight.

Sleeping capacity is 8 — more than the 5 typical of the category. A single slide-out opens up the main living area when you are parked. GVWR is 4,995 lb, leaving about 1,030 lb for water, propane, gear and passengers before you reach the limit.

That is a 39% reduction on the $29,957 MSRP — $11,598 off. It comes in under the $24,250 category median.

Among its listed features are 13.5k btu a/c and customer value pkg. It ships from Bossier City, LA door-to-door to any of the 50 states, inspected before it leaves, at one transparent price with no dealer fees.
