Who is making hybrids these days? My poor little Jayco is getting a little long in the tooth.

Rockwood and Flagstaff are twin brands. Rockwood Roo and Flagstaff Shamrock are the Hybrid lines.
Only differences are outside decals and interior decor.
Jayco no longer makes hybrids nor popups.
As a former hybrid owner and following them for the past 20 years, it appears that hybrids and popups are losinfg favor with RV manufacturers. When a RV company as big as Jayco stops making them, that says a lot.

Other than people not wanting to sleep in half a tent, and half a trailer, it could be the BEAR issue. Many campgrounds no longer allow tents or hybrids due to bears. The bear population has grown immensely in the past few years, and its becoming a real problem. Did you see the pic of a metal sided trailer that a bear ripped the lower sheet metal off of one side? It was in the Gorges SP in NC. They closed the park for a while in hopes the bear(s) would move on to other places.
