Overview
The Jay Feather Micro is built for explorers who want to travel anywhere. Each camper is equipped with a pair of rugged off-road tires, so you can easily travel over rough roads. They also have large awnings and outdoor kitchens, so you can grill at any campsite with ease. Outdoor cooking is an important part of camping for many people, and these trailers make it quick and convenient.
The different floor plan designs vary slightly in length and weight, but each trailer weighs between 3,775 and 4,575 pounds. They are also about 20 feet long, so you can easily pull them without adding too much length to your travel setup.
Despite their compact size, these RVs have room for a lot of people! Some models can accommodate up to eight people, so you can easily camp with large groups.
Jayco has a wide selection of RVs, ranging from huge Class A motorhomes to tiny travel trailers like this one. The new Jay Feather Micro line is designed for adventurous individuals and groups looking to upgrade their camping experience. They’re also quite affordable, with prices starting at $35,993.
