Where these numbers come from
Every figure on this page is read from the 2020 Jayco Eagle factory brochure (RVUSA brochure library) (how sources are handled).
Fields Jayco does not publish for 2020
For this model year the factory record has no width with slides out, exterior height, tire size, fresh tank, grey tank, propane, optional propane, water heater, furnace output, auto-ignition furnace, outside storage compartments and sleeping count. Those rows read “Not published” and are not filled in from another year.
04 Buying a 2020 262RBOK at 6 model years old
Its age, and the date on its label
A 2020 262RBOK is 6 model years old in 2026. Its build month is on the certification label (49 CFR 567.4(g)(2)), not in the model year.
Tires: size and date code
Jayco publishes no tire size for 2020, so read the size off the sidewalls. Read the four-digit date code at the end of each tire's identification number, spare included (49 CFR 574.5(b)(3)).
