01 What makes it unique
The Jay Flight 175FQW is the lightest of the 30 MY2027 floorplans Jayco publishes for the line, with 0 plans below it and 29 above. Its 3,190 lbs dry and 4,500 lbs GVWR leave 1,310 lbs of cargo capacity — 29% of the loaded rating, which is the figure that actually decides what you can put in it.
Fresh water is the load most owners forget to count. The 30 gallon fresh tank weighs about 250 lbs full, which is 19% of this plan's 1,310 lbs of cargo capacity before a single bag goes in. Grey and black hold 20 and 20 gallons. Travelling with full fresh and empty waste tanks is the arrangement that leaves the most room for everything else.
The 175FQW carries the line's compact equipment tier — 8 cu ft refrigerator and 8,000 btu wall-mount a/c. It runs a single axle, which Jayco's factory page and the aggregator spec block both report.
Specifications by model year
This floorplan has a verified factory record for 3 model years here, 2025 to 2027, and the specification does not hold still. Across those years dry weight ranges from 3,160 lb in 2025 to 3,190 lb in 2027, a spread of 30 lb; dry tongue weight ranges from 320 lb in 2025 to 345 lb in 2027, a spread of 25 lb. That is why each model year has its own page below, carrying only its own published figures. Nothing on a year page is copied across from a neighbouring year.
| Model year | Dry (UVW) | GVWR | Cargo (CCC) | Dry tongue | Sleeps | Tire size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 3,160 | 4,500 | 1,340 | 320 | 4 | ST225/75R15'E' |
| 2026 | 3,180 | 4,500 | 1,320 | 320 | 4 | ST225/75R15'E' |
| 2027 | 3,190 | 4,500 | 1,310 | 345 | 4 | ST225/75R15'E' |
Every row is that model year’s own record from Jayco’s model page for that year. The figures in the tow-critical placard at the top of this page are the 2027 record from the source this catalogue originally profiled. On the weights, overall length and tire size, that record and Jayco’s own 2027 model page agree on every field both of them publish. Exterior height is not compared: Jayco publishes a bare height, a with-A/C height and a with-2nd-A/C height, and the single height row carried here cannot be matched to one of them, so no claim is made either way.

Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names ST225/75R15 in 2 tire recalls: 14T015000 (Dynamic Tire Corp., 2014; make TOWMAX STR; model ST); 17T014000 (Triangle Tire USA, 2017; make TRIANGLE; model TR643). A tire recall covers only the brands, lines and DOT date codes it lists, and this page does not know which brand of tire this trailer was built with, so read the brand and DOT code on your own sidewalls before relying on this list. Only 242 of NHTSA’s 788 tire recalls name a size in their summary, so a size with no match is not a clean record (NHTSA recall file, read 12 Oct 2026).
* Marked rows are not published by the source for this floorplan, or the sources disagree. They are left blank rather than estimated from a sibling plan. Figures are base-unit as published for the 2027 model year; options change them. Confirm against the unit's own weight sticker before towing.

03 Jay Flight floorplan family
All 30 MY2027 Jay Flight floorplans, ordered lightest to heaviest by published dry weight. Jayco markets 2027 as the line's 25th-anniversary year. Floorplans whose code ends in W are built at Jayco's western plant and carry their own published figures — they are not duplicates of the eastern build.

Layout descriptions are decoded from Jayco's own floorplan-code suffixes (BH bunkhouse, MB Murphy bed, RLS rear living, QB queen bed, TBS two-bedroom slide, and so on). They describe the code, not a measured interior: this site publishes no interior dimensions for this line and therefore no floorplan diagrams.
04 Reading these numbers
Cargo capacity in context
GVWR minus dry weight is 1,310 lbs on this plan, 29% of the loaded rating. Across the 30 MY2027 floorplans that share the line, the same figure runs from 18% to 29%. Dry weight is a base-unit number: options, batteries and a full propane bottle all come out of the cargo figure, not the dry one.
What this page does not publish
Tongue weight, tire size and axle count on this page come from Jayco’s own factory page for this floorplan, not from the aggregator record behind the rest of the table — RVUSA publishes hitch type only, which is "Bumper Pull" on all 30 MY2027 floorplans, and no tire size at all. Interior room-by-room dimensions are still not published by either source, which is why this page carries no floorplan diagram.
05 How it compares
3,260 lbs dry, 4,600 lbs GVWR, sleeps 6, from $24,518. The nearest heavier floorplan — 70 lbs more trailer than this one.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 30-gallon fresh tank is about 250 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 19% of the Jay Flight 175FQW’s 1,310 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,060 lb (177 lb per rated berth). Across 117 Jay Flight floorplans the water share runs 13% to 47%, and 108 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Jay Flight 175BH at 19% and Jay Flight 180LKW at 19%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Jay Flight 175BHW, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 4 of the 9 fields both publish (this plan first): length 22 ft 1 in vs 22 ft 3 in; dry weight 3,190 lb vs 3,260 lb; GVWR 4,500 lb vs 4,600 lb; cargo capacity 1,310 lb vs 1,340 lb. They match on sleeps, dry hitch weight, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 25 recall campaigns and 80 owner complaints against the Jay Flight line. They are counted separately: a recall is a confirmed defect with a remedy, a complaint one owner’s unverified account.
What to look at on a used one. Across the 80 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are equipment (42%), unknown or other (12%) and structure (11%).
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Jay Flight line page.
