Jayco is still building trailers but not the Travel Supreme Legacy or any other fifth wheel in the old Travel Supreme plant. The Travel Supreme product is now history.
I wondered why Jayco thought they could succeed where Travel Supreme failed when Jayco bought the remains of TS. Clearly they were wrong. It is hard to sell luxury RVs when the economy is going in the tank and Jayco learned an expensive lesson.
There is no reason why buyers of Travel Supreme, Teton, Alfa, Jayco Legacy, or any other buyer of high end trailers whose manufacturer went out of business should feel that they got burned. Those companies built good products and the trailers will provide many years of good service regardless of whether the manufacturer is still in business, or not.
I had a Travel Supreme fiver I bought used and enjoyed for several years. I used it as a home away from home in Indiana when I was transporting and found it comfortable in Indiana winters when overnight lows dropped to 0*. My son-in-law owns it now and one of his job superintendents has been living in it for 2 1/2 years at various jobsites as he built new buildings or remodeled older ones. I just moved it from Glen Rose to Tye, TX this week for the job supt. to remodel a bank building.
The appliances in a travel trailer are built by various companies like Dometic and Norcold, and a dozen others. They can be purchased at any RV discounter or RV dealer and installed by any RV repair tech. No big deal. The only time the owner of a trailer manufactured by a defunct company could be in trouble is if he crushes a fiberglass end cap. They are molded for specific trailers and not interchangeable.
Michelin doesn't make a load range G tire in 16" sizes so you can't have the dealer replace four load range G Goodyear tires with four Michelins. That's the reason why Goodyear is the only game in town for 16" LRG tires. If Michelin made LRG 16" tires nobody would buy Goodyears. A better solution would be to upgrade to 17. 5" wheels and Michelin commercial light truck tires.
Edit: A new post in the HitchHiker Owner's Forum late last night reported two failures of new GY 17. 5" trailer tires.

I've never met that poster in person but I know from exchanging messages and reading his posts over several years he is an intelligent and thoughtful HH owner who posts reliable information based on facts, not nonsense.
That post is further reason why I would NEVER buy a Goodyear tire for use on a heavy trailer.
