Since I lost all of my webshot pics, here's some repeats with current Jayco pic link in my signature.
Previous 2008 Jayco Jay Flight 19BH and Previous 2010 F150
Current 2012 Jayco Jay Flight 26BH and Previous 2010 F150
No pics of current truck towing yet as I just bought it at the end of November.

I saw this quite a while ago and was a bit disappointed. Instead of rigging up a fix for the tailgate, a HEAVY DUTY and EXTENDED tailgate option should had been used. It has support bars (instead of the added, rigged chains) and a built in 5th wheel mounted on the CORRECT tailgate support members!!
I just hate when people do things unsafe and silly like that.

Anyone do any winter camping? I'm itching to get out. A couple buddies tried to convince me to bring my 5th wheel up to Lambeau for a tailgate. Would have but didn't want to unwinterize and rewinterize right away.

In fact I run a board dedicated to all season camping. Drop me a PM if you are interested (I am not sure how the admins would like me linking to this board on a public post).
Our latest winter trip was for our annual New Years tradition and it was an absolute BLAST!!

Check the full time forums on RV.NET for a lot of good info for winter camping. A small oil-filled electric radiator in the fifth-wheel basement to prevent water pipe freezing is just one of the many suggestions.

We tried winter camping with a hybrid Jayco... not too good with a baby... this year, with our new camper, we're gonna give it a shot again in Lancaster, PA... we'll see

I don't know how anyone can camp in the winter, it froze early last year while we were camping for deer camp and my lines and tanks started to freeze before I could get it home and winterized it. I had to heat the tank valves with a torch just to drain the tanks
