Jayco Jay Flight SLX 261BHS

Still in production. A used 2023 would run roughly $20,900.

dry weight 5,975 lb + fresh water (52 gal, full) 434 lb + propane + battery 200 lb + gear for 2 600 lb. Brochure dry weight omits water, propane, batteries and your gear; this estimate doesn't.

Judged the way the app judges: estimated loaded weight against each vehicle's rating less a 10% margin, per model year, because the 261BHS's published weights changed mid-run.

These verdicts assume 2 people aboard with typical gear. See the margin for your truck and your crew →

A missing row means the maker never published that figure: unknown, not zero.

Common: usually several for sale within a day’s drive. Why: Jayco is a volume manufacturer; still in production. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

The half-ton bunkhouse Jayco sells the most of — nothing clever, just ten beds and a low sticker.
