Winnebago Minnie Winnie 25b Class C Tour

- Come along for a complete tour of our Winnebago Minnie Winnie. We will show you around our exterior and interior. We've been living in our RV full time for several months, and we are enjoying our tiny home on wheels!
Late to comment but had to say how useful this tour was, especially the interior. The vendor tours show empty shelves, provide no special insights on practical storage issues, use of organizers, etc. This was great! Thank you!
Thank you. Glad it was helpful! 😁
This video is SO helpful. I’m a solo female traveler who has never even touched an rv. Looking into buying with little outside input is intimidating! Thanks for explaining so thoroughly.
I'm in the same position. What did you go with?
I love how the front windshield privacy curtain makes it so strangers can peek in from outside but you can't peak out from inside that makes perfect sense LOL
In spite of some minor sound issues, I'd say that this is the best review of the 25B I've seen, by actual users and not some dealer. I love this model Great job!
Thanks for the kind words. :-)
We sure enjoy our 25b!
We sure are!
Our 25B is our 3rd RV and I think we found the perfect rig. We flat tow a 2020 4X4 Ranger.
It really is a fantastic rig. If covid had not been a factor I think we may still be in it. It is so versatile! Happy Trails
Like the on board generator. Great feature
Hi! Three years late, but I'm here!😊
Thank you for presenting this as an owner, unlike a dealer, who would whiz through with imaginary woulda coulda shouldas!
This is very helpful as we are looking to travel more frequently and steward our resources (including our energy) more wisely.
We figure it's more conducive to be able to take monthly excursions and staycations (transplanted to GA from NY in '94 and STILL haven't explored a quarter of this beautiful state!) rather than once a year getaway.
Re: the sewer maintenance. We were raised w septic in NY and have been on septic since moving here. I think it definitely makes us more conscious of caring for the environment (can't just dump anything down it). We are always mindful that only the three Ps are to EVER go down (the third P is toilet paper☺️).
When I was transitioning from home to homeowner, my landlord thanked me for recognizing he was on septic...and that it was about to back up because of previous tenants. He had not a clue of how to care for it.
No less than 10 streams and creeks are within a mile of our property now. Every time I see the deer munching on my muscadines, I smile at knowing they're not far from clean water.
Thank you again for your channel. Very insightful.
Safe travels. Looking forward to catching up🚐☁️☁️
I had come across this model and wanted to see what it looked like in real life! You did a terrific job. I feel like this would give me plenty of space as a solo full time RVer. Looking forward to more!
Thank you! I definitely think it is very spacious for a solo full timer. :-)
I love the tour! You guys have it so well organized. Such a great living space!
Thanks Madeline. We will be doing some tips on organizing in small spaces soon. :-)
Hello. Thanks for sharing. A little tip for you… you can pour the ice cubes into a freezer zip lock bag. Makes it more practical and better use of space in the freezer. Just use the ice cube trays when you need to make more ice. 😊
Thanks for the tour, its everything I thought it would be plus some hidden surprises!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very nice commentary. Also, extremely informative. I personally think this RV is the perfect size. Thanks for sharing you guys.
I don’t have a motor home. Of all the motor homes I have seen this would be the perfect one for me. I like everything about it. I just subscribed to your channel. Good tour.
Thank you so much! Appreciate the comment. :-)
Thank You very much for sharing and showing In full detail your RV. I really Loved it. Good Luck and hopefully I may be able to buy soon.
Your very welcome, hope you find what you're looking for soon!
I love this! I was considering this model to live in full time but was unsure so I really appreciated the tour and y'all did a brilliant job with explaining all the features. Two thumbs up from me.
Glad it was helpful!
That seems like the perfect size class c. It has everything that you need and plenty of storage
We enjoyed this RV a lot!!
Great tour! Thanks for the details and nice rig :)
Ty for the tour of your home!
Excellent video. Very well done with clear explanations!
I loved the tour and the RV. Great. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks Thais, we love it!
I just came back form Alaska and I rented this same unit. I've never seen a coach so small in length that comes with a couch. Good possibility that I may purchase this RV to spend my summers in AK.
Tear of Taste, Alaska is definitely on our bucket list. The unit packed a big punch for its size. Thanks for your comment!
Great tour!! Thanks for sharing!
Matthew Newell You’re welcome. Our pleasure!
❤❤TY so much I loved it. I am buying one very soon. This was so helpful!
Love it! Beautiful!
Thank you! 😊
Great vidieo! It was helpful to see how people actually use the spaces. I hope you Cajuns are still riding around enjoying your beautiful motorhome!
First time seeing the MW and love it.
Great video! I just purchased a 24M Minnie Winnie and will be picking it up next week. Thank you for the awesome ideas. I look forward to viewing more of your videos.
Thank you! So excited for you. Hope to hear about your adventures in it.
Best overview ever!
Thanks so much!
Also love the library, “Seussism” a personal fav. Looking to purchase an RV in near future and exploring what’s available, haven’t decided on a particular model yet but your video is super helpful. Thanks again for sharing 🙌
Super cool! Thinking about getting one. I love camping and lakes. I think this would be a lot of fun family of 3
Very nice, thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching!
I love it, this is the class c Motorhome I am planning to buy, congratulations guys!! Already subscribed.. have fun and be safe on the roads.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for this video. My wife and I are hoping to get our 26T by week's end. Your video showed me additional ways to store supplies and enjoy the Minnie. We traded in our four month old Thor Gemini for some more room without going huge. I watched your video what you liked and disliked about the Minnie and took it to heart. It is just the two of us and were are planning a cross-country trip in mid March. The Thor Gemini was a good RV, but too small for a long trip. The 26T is only 4 feet longer and I should be similar in handling. What I liked about the 26T is the walkaround bed, the adaptive cruise control, and cameras on the mirrors. Ford brought the 2021 unit up to modern safety standards. The 2021 Gemini did not have side cams, nor adaptive cruise. Looking forward to this 6 month odyssey. We had only traveled 2500 miles since we became RV's and this will make or break us
It should MAKE you for sure! Having the retrospect that you do has obviously help shape this decision. I think it's going to allow you to have a wonderful journey with space enough to fully enjoy living out of it. Send pics of your adventure!!!
The husband didn’t know they had a library 🤣 awesome video guys. My girlfriend and I are looking into buy one but a smaller size maybe a 24ft. Thanks for sharing!!!
Great tour. Really good to see how someone actually uses the motor home.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video tour. We have a 2016 25B, subscribed.
Thank you so much! We have really enjoyed it!
How is the quality after 4 years? Thanks
Great video! Very informative!
Glad it was helpful!
Love your Chanel, great tour 😃
Thanks so much! Appreciate it. :)
Great tour
Thank you so much!
Good review! Thanks
Thanks for sharing!!! This would be perfect for me.
You are so welcome!
I want one. Good video. well done. Just the right size.
Nice, I love mine. I have cabinet doors in my dinette seat storage so I don't have to remove cushions or plywood to get into them
Great job guys! I want this one! Glad it has no slides.
Good choice!
@@TheCajunNomads we are interested in the 25B and I'm hopeful that the generator can be used to keep our pups comfortable in the air conditioning while we go hiking in the summer. Do you know if that's possible to do? I heard you say in this video the generator shuts off after gas is at 1/4 full, but will it be possible to leave it running when we are away from the rig to keep the a/c on for our pets? I'm envisioning we will not have a tow vehicle so we will drive to trailhead parking and be away from the rig for up to 3 hour hike. Thanks, Patty.
@@pattyk8594 The Onan generator will easily keep the Rv very cool for your pets or people. You can lock Rv and leave with no issues running the generator, just keep your fuel tank level filled above quarter tank (it shuts off your generator to prevent running your Rv out of fuel).
Very nice!
Thank you!
Great video..
Thank you Mary!
I just bought one like your today.
Congrats! Hope you enjoy it!
Very very nice looks like home who ever designed this car did a excellent job very very 👌 nice
Thank you very much
Lindo motor home, perfeito o acabamento e o espaço bem aproveitado, gostei muito. Parabéns pra vcs por ter adquirido esse motor home maravilhoso.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much. We are enjoying it. :)
Nice!
Nice home!
Thank you!
We've rented 25 ft. Many times, but this is the best layout we've seen. Thank you...you didn't say what year?
It is a 2020, thanks so much for watching!
Never mind. I saw your video where you stated size is an issue for extended stay. Two things. I would love to buy it, if I could, and to bad you're so far away from Phoenix. Love your videos.
Thank you! It's a great RV. We've really enjoyed it.
You guys have a lot of stuff in your rig. Damnnnmmm Gina
😂
great vid. we have a sunseeker 2550
Thank you for this video. We just bought a Coachmen Class C Crosstrail 20CBT. We love it! It is similar to your floorplan. We are looking for ways to organize it. We have about the same storage space as yours. You definitely have more storage in the bathroom which is awesome! We want to go to Wyoming, Montana and Alaska. So any tips would be helpful. What gps do you use? Thanks again!

😁
I think the kitchen is bigger than the dorm kitchens 😂
😂Quite possibly. Lol
Hey, I appreciate the content! I am in GA and new to the RV world. I just purchased a 2021 winnebago spirit 22M but it needs repair to the camper box behind the driver side door. Any suggestions for people you like using in the South East? Appreciate your time and consideration
How did the AC work for that south Louisiana summer?
Go tigers!
It would freeze you out! We had no problems with keeping it cool. Geaux Tigers!
Very well done video. I bought a 2015 Minnie Winnie a few years back but due to some unforeseen circumstances I've only gotten to take it camping once for about 4 nights/5 days but I really liked it a lot. Mine is a 27Q so the floor plan is a bit different, it has a separate bedroom which I really like a lot, the bed is a full size queen - not "cut off" corner. I'm just wondering does your bed have a storage area underneath the mattress? Mine does but I'm not really sure if it's meant to be for storage and haven't put anything in there yet. There's nothing in it, no wiring or anything, just a great big "box", so I think it can be used for storage. Is yours similar to that? I gotta tell ya, I learned more from your "tour" than I did from the dealership that I purchased my rig from., so I really appreciate you sharing all that you did. I'm still reading the manuals on mine LOL! If you read this can you mention something about the 'under-the-bed-storage" area please. Are you really selling yours already? I love mine and though I only plan to keep it another few years I am very happy with it. Thanks again for sharing!
Hey! Thank you. We don't have under-the-bed storage. We do have major storage in the (outside) back of the RV which is technically under the bed area. .....I'm glad you found an RV that you love and are happy with. That's awesome. :-)
great tour.. love me somw cajun folks.
Thank you!!
Great video, love the motorhome. I'm an Aussie thinking of buying one to travel USA for 12 months. One question, is the fridge 3 way....or just 2 way?
love it!
Im looking to buy a sprinter Van but honestly dont have the money right now to convert one.... this seems like a great next best option. Im going to do travel physical therapy. would you say in your experience this is the best class C camper van out there? im looking for something not too big, but big enough for a couple and perhaps a small dog. Any websites you know of that sell these kinds of vans? thanks!! love your channel!
Rosie, I'm sorry I am just getting back to your comment. I would say it is the perfect step up in size from a spinter. It has a bigger foot print without slides. I think it comes down to how you are going to use it. When we move fast we love small, when we are working in it day to day we want it bigger. It was a great rig for us in the short time we had it, when the stay at home thing came into effect, it had an impact.
Very nice tour. Thank you! We are shopping and I have a couple of questions. 1. Do you find that a 54" bed is wide enough? Do you ever feel cramped? 2. Do you go everywhere without an extra vehicle? Do you ever wish you had something else to drive? Our hopes are to get something we can drive without worrying about towing (we have a 30' trailer now and want to just get in and go). We will have to check out more of your videos.
Thanks for watching! The bed was small but it worked for us. It is a more compact unit but the the layout is very good. The size gives you the ability to be very mobile and it would be easy to use it as a driver when you need . Nichole did follow in her car. If we boondocked a lot it would not be needed, we stay in a lot of parks hooked up, so having the car was helpful. The challenge is setting up and tearing down everytime you want to go somewhere. We sold this rig because we went fulltime and started working from the RV. It comes down to your travel style, but the Winnebago was a wonderful rig. Happy Travels
Great tour, thank you for sharing. I’m shopping now for a full time RV and this is tip of my list. Couple of questions...how loud is the generator? Do you have central air and heat? How loud are those units? You mentioned the upper bunk is cold?
Hey! Thank you. Well...you can hear the generator inside a little bit, but it never woke me up while sleeping. So, it’s not too loud. We tend to forget it’s on. We do have central air and heat. There are ducts for AC all the way through. There are ducts all the way through at bottom for heat as well. As for as the sound of the units- - I don’t raise the volume on the television when they kick on. 😂You do hear it kick in, but it’s not an intrusive sound. Much like any RV. Yes, the upper bunk is cold--by choice. You can close the vent above bunk if you wish. Hope this info helps!
The Cajun Nomads thank you so much for the detailed answers. Love your videos.
@@kathleenestes3559 No problem! Thanks.
@@TheCajunNomads do you need generator on when plugin city electricity? Is bunkbed cold even when heater is on? Thanks
Guys great video!! We are looking at the 25b one question we have is how comfortable is the passenger seat. Does it recline enough to be comfortable on long trips and did you have plenty of leg room?
Thanks
We did not find it very comfortable. It reclined a little but the back of the dinette is right behind you and it also limits your leg space.
Cool Rv ! May i ask what size iz the Tv ? I c that the supportz 2 the Tv fit perfectly on the table ! Thank u !
Hi! I really enjoyed your video on the Minnie Winnie. I was wondering where you found the corner shelves for the bathroom cabinet?
Thank you. I think I purchased them at Target in the bathroom section. :-)
Ice trays are a challenge 😹
You ain't lying. Haha.
Very helpful, thank you. How much room in the fridge is there for gallon size containers (i.e. milk)? Just one, in the area where you had a bag of cheese?
As you know Rv fridges can be small but we could get one gallon in, half gallons are just more practical to make room for other items. Thanks for watching!
If you ever get to Fort Mill South Carolina please let me know you can park in my driveway!
Thank you! That's so kind. :-)
FINALLY have the wife on board for a class c. Only took 4 years of conversation. Your TV idea is exactly was i was thinking about down to the JBL. One question How do you think it would be with 4 adults. in 3 sleeping locations?
Thinking about one of these in place of an apartment.
Sarah, it has been great living in our RV and the mobility it gives us. We were not sure how we would like it, but we love it. Apartments will always be there if its not your thing! Nothing ventured nothing gained!!! Do your research, because like with anything there are challenges. Thanks for watching
Ever have customers with issues with cracked or broken glass ? Let us know ! We can help with our 4ml clear window protection film.
Thanks
In my opinion, this is the best thought out class C with no slides on the market. I do have a couple questions. Is there storage under the jackknife sofa? Do you have any mold issues with the retracting shower screen? Do you feel that the 20 k btu furnace is adequate during the cold nights? What size inverter is installed and is it modified or pure sine wave? I've heard this model has 2 batteries. Could you show where they are located? Thanks.
Hey! There is no storage under the sofa. We did not have mold issues with shower screen. We did pull it out to air dry it regularly. The furnace was more than sufficient. (We camped in 17 degree weather.) We have sold the RV since the video so I do not have exact info on inverter, but it was more than sufficient to run it for hours while watching tv and running heater over night. It did have 2 batteries underneath the steps where you entered. We agree, this is a perfect Class C with no slides. We enjoyed when we had it!! Only sold it for more space needed due to working out of it full time.
Nice tour. What is ccc? Does the bedroom has a door or curtain? Thanks
David Winnebago advertises 11,500 to 14,500 depending on the chassis. I believe ours was 14,500. The bedroom in this model has no door or curtain. It is a open concept unit. Thanks for watching!
Hi this is my firs visit to your channel, I’m still deciding if I should purchase an RV. Can you tell me the difference between a class C and class B RV-what exactly does that refer to?
Hey Angels Cove, Great questions! A class C is Typically like what you see in our video. A truck front that has a cab that extends over it. A Class B is normally a van body and a B plus, as it is sometimes called is a larger version of a van model. If you google the two you will see lots of examples. For your decision it comes down to how you will want to travel and how many are traveling with you. B's are a smaller and can go just about anywhere, C's offer you more living space but can restrict you in some places depending on how you want to camp. Most of the time for getting in most places a C or B is just fine. Thanks for watching!
How is the leg room on the toilet? Our current motor home has an angled bathroom door and it’s not as roomy as we like. Is the bathroom large enough to get dressed easily in there? Thanks
This unit has the toilet in a great position for leg room. Not an issue at all. Happy Travels!
Are these reliable RV's in general? Good floor plan.
We cannot speak for everyone, but in our experience, our Winnebago was very reliable. We didn't have any trouble with the RV. Outside of the space issue for us (which is a personal preference) we really enjoyed this one.
Would you consider buying outside your local area? Having a hard time finding inventory in our state.
We actually drove to another state to purchase this particular RV. We look for what we want, and if it's in another state, we will definitely buy outside of our state. Sometimes the dealership's inventory just doesn't consist of what you are looking for. :-)
Thank you!
Hi! what year is the Rv?
Hello, any tips to help with rattling while driving? I also drive a class c. Thank you 😊
There always seemed to be a little rattling from the actual RV itself that we could not completely alleviate. But securing and shutting cabinets tightly and placing EasyLiner Original Grip Shelf liner under pots and lids, or anything that clanked together helped.
I don't have a rig YET, I'm looking,
Well, take your time and find what works best for you in your budget! Its suppose to be fun... we looked for a while before jumping in. Just start where you can and get out there! So much so see!!!!!
Your Winnebago has the same floor plan as ours. Can I ask what brand is the range cover? Ours does not have one.
We have sold the Winnebago and I can not remember the model stove... sorry about that but thanks for reaching out and Happy Trails!
I don't have a rig yet but I'm looking to get one soon. My question is how high is the rig and what is the length of your rig.
Our rig was 26 foot long, we sold this unit a while back and I honestly cannot remember how high it was.
Hi, we are considering trading in our RV for a Minnie Winnie 25B, but I'm hesitant because it's actually a step down for us. How is the driving comfort? I noticed that the Ford chassis does not allow much movement in terms of driving position (can't lean back very far). Also, what kind of MPG do you get with your 25B?
Eddie, I am sorry for the late response. This is an area of concern, it is not the most comfortable seat for long trips.
Did you ever ask them about the missing window on the cab over for cross ventilation!!
Just to ask , why not a class A? Thanks
Why are you selling it already? Saw it for sale on RV Trader.
Keep an eye out for an upcoming video. Details coming. :-)
Please, what is/was the cost? Thanks...
I paid 73k but I see them advertised from 85k to 100k. Shop around and never pay sticker!
What year model is this?
It is a 2020!
does it have a spare tire?
Bodanga, yes! In the rear storage area it has a spare and it is easy to access.
Do you mine I like that motorhome I love I have like same unit. plan to buy. But I dont know how much the unit like that.
Jerry, I paid 74k for the RV, I think it retailed for 95K. As with most of the RV's you look at they sale for less than advertised. You can get used ones a couple of years old for much less if you look around. Hope that helps and good luck in your search! Shawn
It's a 2020 ?
Yes it is, we purchased it right after it came out.
What’s the inverter for???
The inverter is to run "everything" internally on the battery when you are not hooked to power. (Not air conditioner)
The Cajun Nomads sorry, meant converter...
Gotcha! No problem. The converter turns AC Voltage to DC Voltage or 110V to 12V in an RV. An inverter turns DC Voltage to AC Voltage or 12V to 110V in an RV.
“Owens” Generator?
Sorry for the delay in response. Yes it is!
SW Lake Charles Cajun lady displaced in Georgia! Going home in Oct. then for a UTube meet and greet with Utuber LOLA Lost On Land Again @ Cedar Hill SP. It will be different not hugging my relatives or friends. Nice rig! It a good way to promote your channel as they hand out stickers. I want to trade my 16’ 25 Navion for something beautiful bigger. Peachy Cajun B saying hello! 🍑👍
We lived in Lake Charles for a few years when we were first married, great memories from that time. Enjoy your visit home and eat some good ole cajun food for us!
would have been nice to know a PRICE,
We paid 75k for this unit. Sorry for the late response!
