    Very nice rig. I love the new interior colors. I am going to give my honest opinion here just in case Winnebago staff are reading. I also like a smaller trailer with no slide. I have the 2013 Mini (not Micro) 19.2ft 1801fb. It is now 10 years old and still doing great. I love mine just as it is as it seems to have the best layout for max storage. My Mini is 6 inches wider than the Micros. I suggest the bathroom mirror be moved to the inside of the bathroom door. I did that with a cheap, lightweight full length mirror I velcroed on and it has never fallen off. I just open the door wide and can stand in the center of the rig to get a full view. That would give you room on the back wall behind the toilet to put some command hooks to hang baskets for toilet paper, towels, hair dryer, etc, giving you much needed storage. I would miss the big hanging wardrobe I have. I have some clothes that would get wrinkled by folding. I also suggest they offer 2 solar panels for better boondocking. I also changed my 2 20lb tanks to 2 30lb tanks for boondocking. Day/night shades would also be nice. I love organizing so I look forward to seeing what you do inside to make it your own. Happy travels and "see you on the road".

    That was really interesting to see. After years of camping I put my dishes in the drawer under the stove. We went over a curb and all the dishes fell and broke. I moved the dishes to the bottom drawer and it worked so well for storing dishes and glasses. Been a long time fan of yours. Have fun on your trip to Alaska. Can hardly wait to see it.

  • @TJB-zt9tx

    With less room what we did was get a cap for the truck. It has 2 side awning doors as well as rear. Inside I put a suspended length adjustable clothes hanging bar on both sides. Relatively inexpensive through Autozone. My wife hung her clothes on one side and mine on the other. We also put one of those plastic drawer units in there for shoes etc. So we turned our 6 foot pickup bed into our closet. The cost of the cap was around $2,700.00. Not cheap but it made life on the road much more reasonable.😊

    Great new trailer. You should consider swapping the tv for a 4K monitor, you could use for editing w/o having to carry a 2nd monitor around. Interesting that Winnebago is back to using pinch rolling for laminating, they used to use a vacum bonding system that was supposed to be superior; might not be compatible with Azdel.

    @AskRemy Před rokem +1

    22:34 would be nice to explain the benefits of this design - when we see fiberglass walls on RV's bulging or waving - you know what I am saying - what causes those walls to fail? Are these those walls also - or is this the solution to preventing the breakdown of fiberglass wall design 5, 10 years down the road. Airstream claims their RV's easily last 50 years, which is why they are so expensive. I would like to learn more about the integrity of these design choices.

    It would be best if the pinched laminated glued walls were put in a humidity controlled area to allow the glue to cure for 48 hours before being handled. That dry and cure time are two huge factors that they neglect. Would also like to see aluminum on the front wall and guessing the rear wall.
    If Winn and it's sister companies share ideas to build better why isn't Grand Design using Azdell? Also adding better support for the tanks so the fresh water tank could be full when traveling would be a huge improvement.

    Love the tour of the trailer and the factory. Only thing I didn’t like on your trailer was the bathroom. It should have been a little bit bigger. The factory should have made the back of the trailer longer so the bathroom could have been a little bigger.
