Hi to all who visit this site. Merry Christmas & happy safe travels for 2020. I am looking at the Jayco Conquest mentioned, & I would appreciate any pros/cons on the same. It is powered by a Renault Master. Cheers Haze

Hi Haze,
It looks like a nice Motorhome, we have a 2015 JAYCO Conquest FA 25.3, it has cupboards above the cabin and the slide out has the dinette and double bed which we find easy to get in and out of, therefore there is no need set up a bed in the dining area or climb a ladder to get in and out of the bed above the cabin, which you will find becomes more difficult with age.
We are in our late 60s and previously we had a Motorhome with a drop down bed which we found was a pain a night to get out of the bed you had to climb over each other and then we were in our early 60s, so thats probably the only thing I suggest that you need to consider as getting in and out of bed and having a nap during the day is important to us.
Hope this is of some help and good luck with your research.

Haze,
Jayco is Australia's largest RV manufacturer so no problem with reputation. The Renault chassis is becoming a viable alternative to the Fiat for those who prefer rear wheel drive.
Also that model has the electric roll down bed which gives you the advantage of a more easily maneuverable compact motorhome and roomy when the bed is up. A good choice imo.
