Perhaps a better question would be to ask if there really is an OBD II in 2019 F53 Jayco Precept. I have stood on my head 3 times trying to find it in the vicinity of the steering column.

We also have the 22". Use it mostly for pancakes and french toast. If you don't travel and cook for a big group, the 17" is probably best, as it is not as heavy to get in and out of the basement.

Take another look at DRVs.

Hambone, for a selection of good used DRVs, check the website for Rolling Retreats, in Elk City, OK. Great reputation of the 5er world. I think they have about 10 good used units.
