Frequently asked
What's the difference between a Bungalow and a regular travel trailer?
The Jay Flight Bungalow line uses 102-inch wide-body construction and taller exterior heights to create destination-park-style interiors with loft sleeping, dual A/Cs and residential layouts. They're built for seasonal placement, not weekly moves.
Can either fit under a 12 ft underpass?
The Open Range 335RBS at 11.75 ft fits under standard 12 ft 6 in interstate clearances comfortably. The Bungalow 40DLFT at 13.08 ft is too tall for many bridges and needs route planning.
Which has more solar?
Both list 200W solar. The Open Range 335RBS pairs it with an 1,800W inverter standard; the Bungalow 40DLFT has no inverter listed. For dry camping or shore-power outages, the Open Range delivers more off-grid usability.
