01 What makes it unique

The 36FBTS puts a full ‘FB’ master bath up front, off the raised king bedroom over the hitch, with the living area at the rear and the kitchen amidships — a layout that gives the bedroom suite its own private bath and a rear lounge with a fireplace. It runs three slide-outs and sleeps four. The equipment is the standard Pinnacle package: a GE 21-cubic-foot 12-volt residential refrigerator, a GE Profile 24-inch range and 30-inch convection microwave, solid-surface counters and a king bed, on the 102-inch wide-body chassis with Dexter axles, six-point hydraulic auto-leveling and a MORryde LRE-4000 suspension.

Jayco publishes a 17,500-pound GVWR against the 14,255-pound dry weight, leaving a 3,245-pound cargo capacity and a 2,535-pound dry pin. Two 15,000-BTU Whisper Quiet air conditioners, a 40,000-BTU furnace, an on-demand tankless water heater, the Overlander II solar package and 75/87/87-gallon fresh/grey/black tanks — with generous grey and black capacity — are standard. At a starting MSRP around $129,000, with street pricing below placard, the 36FBTS is the front-bath Pinnacle for a couple who wants a private front master bath and a rear living room in a mid-length luxury coach.

Pinnacle is Jayco's flagship luxury full-profile fifth wheel. The 2026 line runs to six floorplans, all profiled here in full. Every Pinnacle rides a 102-inch wide-body chassis built on a 12-inch steel I-beam with an 8/10-inch monster-beam drop frame, on Dexter axles with ABS, 17.5-inch 16-ply H-rated tires with SpartanLync TPMS, a MORryde LRE-4000 rubberized suspension and a MORryde rubber pin box, with six-point hydraulic auto-leveling, Stronghold VBL laminated fiberglass walls, a Magnum Truss XL6 roof, Climate Shield zero-degree insulation and an enclosed heated underbelly. The residential package is standard: a GE 21-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, a GE Profile 24-inch range and 30-inch convection microwave, solid-surface counters, two 15,000-BTU Whisper Quiet air conditioners, a 40,000-BTU furnace, an on-demand tankless water heater, the Overlander II solar package and JAYCOMMAND smart controls. Dry weight, GVWR, CCC and pin are the factory figures; dry weight plus CCC equals GVWR exactly on every plan except the 38SSWS. Real loaded pin weights run higher — always weigh the loaded coach and confirm against your truck's payload and rear-axle ratings.
