Hi Everyone!
Newbie to the forum, been lurking for a few weeks since buying our 06 Jayco Eagle and started down the long, long rabbit hole of mods for it. After reading around a bit, it turns out I should have been here years ago - we sold our 2010 softfloor camper trailer from Vic Getaway Campers to go towards the Eagle.
The softfloor was an absolute labour of love - a lot of time went into tweaking and modding it to make setup easier, it travel better, and generally work better than when it rolled out of the factory. If I'd been here for the past five years, life would have been a lot easier!. Unfortunately a new baby meant I was doing all of the setup by myself, which began to rule out shorter trips - time for an upgrade!
The Eagle's done pretty good already - we're the third owner (second had it for 10 months, realised it was too small for his family), but it's been pretty lovingly maintained, has bagged awnings, bed flies and kitchen awning, pole carrier & bike rack already fitted and ready to go, all lights changed to LEDs, extra 12v sockets installed and even a hitch lock that still has the old padlock attached. Will be looking to make the 'pantry' more useable, and potentially a few other things along the way.
First shakedown trip with the Eagle kicks off tomorrow night for the weekend, so fingers crossed everything goes well!
