Update …
Still haven’t decided which one I want to get yet, as I am writing this I am leaning to the Jayco X19H Hybrid. I went last weekend to look them over again. I also saw another possibility at another dealer, a Passport 239ML. It has a floorplan almost identical to the Crossfire 2200BH. The Passport has a three burner stove, oven, nicer outdoor kitchen, but a cargo capacity of about 1300lb vs the 2180lb in the Crossfire, and 1200 in the Jayco. Now I will not be able to use the extra cargo capacity with my current tow vehicle, but when I will be able to when I get a new one. Also the passport is a used 2018 model.
Here’s the dealer story on it:
The previous owners purchased it, took one trip with it, the husband got a new job with more pay and vacation time, so they traded it in and got a bigger Winnebago.
So being used, but still a 2018, it is only a little cheaper than a new one (but may be a lot cheaper after negotiations, etc. so it’s on the table, but in 3rd place).
I also went to a CAT scale and weight my truck empty at 4740lbs, and with GCWR of 10,000, and truck passengers and cargo estimated at 700lb, gives my max trailer weight at about 4500lb. Meaning only about 400lbs of cargo in the 2200bh and 239ML, and about 700lb in the X19H. Axle, tongue, truck GWR weights should all still be within limits.
Also glad to see the 500 miles in a day is doable. I estimate that to take about 10hrs. I just didn't know if that would be too long a drive towing, as I will be close to max on the truck.
