Jayco · 2024–2027Jay Flight 262RLS

The Jay Flight 262RLS is the 41st-lightest of the 56 MY2027 Jay Flight floorplans this site carries from Jayco’s own 2027 model pages, with 40 plans below it and 15 above. Its 6,205 lbs dry and 7,900 lbs GVWR leave 1,695 lbs of cargo capacity — 21% 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 52 gallon fresh tank weighs about 432 lbs full, which is 25% of this plan's 1,695 lbs of cargo capacity before a single bag goes in. Grey and black hold 39 and 39 gallons. Travelling with full fresh and empty waste tanks is the arrangement that leaves the most room for everything else.

It runs two axles, as Jayco's own factory page for this floorplan reports.

This floorplan has a published factory record for 4 model years here, 2024 to 2027. The specification does not hold still: GVWR runs from 7,600 lb (2025) to 7,900 lb (2027); dry weight runs from 5,995 lb (2024) to 6,205 lb (2027); dry tongue weight runs from 770 lb (2024) to 815 lb (2027). The published sleeping capacity changes across the years: up to 6 in 2024–2025, up to 4 in 2026, up to 6 in 2027. Each year’s complete record is printed separately below, carrying only that year’s own published figures and source. Nothing is copied across from a neighbouring year.

All 56 MY2027 Jay Flight floorplans this site carries, 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.

A full 52-gallon fresh tank is about 432 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 25% of the Jay Flight 262RLS’s 1,695 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,263 lb (211 lb per rated berth). Across 123 Jay Flight floorplans the water share runs 13% to 47%, and 69 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Jay Flight 195RB at 25% and Jay Flight 324BDS at 25%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
