12 Reasons we Love the Winnebago Forza

February 19, 2020February 19, 2020lichtsinn

It’s time to go diesel with the elegant, pleasantly priced Winnebago Forza. The Forza is built on the Freightliner XCS chassis which provides it a solid foundation coupled with a Cummins diesel engine boasting 700 lb ft of torque or power. The Forza is also equipped with the best of class Allison six speed transmission that includes grade braking and engine exhaust braking.

Inside the Forza, you will appreciate fine amenities such as polished Corian galley countertops and sink covers, the residential refrigerator package, coffee glazed cabinetry, upscale entertainment features, LED lighting, a walk-around queen bed (king bed option in 36H and 38F) and an HDTV in the bedroom.

Listed below are just some of the reasons we love the Winnebago Forza.

Abundant Exterior Storage – Diesel pushers are known for storage and the Forza, built on the Freightliner XCS Chassis, provides abundant basement storage with its Smart Storage design with up to 228 cubic feet of exterior storage.
Outdoor Entertainment – Bring the inside to the great outdoors – with Forza’s available exterior 32” HDTV-featured entertainment center.
Powered Patio AND Entrance Awnings (na 34T)- The Forza is equipped with an electric Patio Awning with LED lights that creates an outdoor living space to enjoy. In addition, the Forza is equipped with an Entrance Awning (na 34T, the 34T patio awning covers the entrance) to protect you from the elements as you go in and out of your coach. Each Winnebago Forza floorplan also includes a Pet Pal leash tie down so that you can bring your furry friends along too!
V-Ride Air Suspension – The Winnebago Forza is equipped with V-Ride Suspension. The design and engineering of the V Ride, features “v rod” shaped upper control arms that help dissipate suspension forces through the crossmember and frame rails. In addition, the V Ride’s transverse beam is directly integrated with the trailing arm to form a single piece U shaped assembly. This unified design, combined with the v rod control arms, significantly reduces sway and provides a more stable ride – especially in instances when a vehicle’s tendency is to lean or drift outward, as when traveling around a curve. The V Ride maintains superior roll stability and more predictable handling.
OptiView Dash – The OptiView Dash in the Winnebago Forza is an all Digital Instrument Panel Cluster. This user-friendly system features a bright, anti-glare display, touch screen radio and input operation, camera system views and Bluetooth steering wheel controls providing a luxury automotive driving experience.
DriveTech Driving System – The Winnebago Forza is equipped with This is the first RV driving system to prioritize safety by putting every command in one easy-to-reach location. The all-new ergonomic steering wheel and column-mounted controls are paired with OptiView’s all-digital gauge display to create a more automotive-like feel and set the industry standard for luxury RV driving.
Superior Heating and Cooling – The Winnebago Forza floorplans are each equipped with two air conditioners. The 34T floorplan has two 13,500 BTU air conditioners and the other floorplans each have two 15,000 BTU air conditioners. Each has a standard Air Conditioner and an Air Conditioner with Heat Pump. Three of the Forza floorplans (38D, 38F, and 38W) also boast two 20,000 BTU ducted furnaces.
Elegant Design – The Winnebago Forza is simple yet sophisticated. The Forza floorplans balance straight lines and curves. These traditional styles create a soothing, comfortable and practical interior, ideal for active households as well as those who love to entertain. A variety of accent hues, textures and styles, ranging from striking jewel palates to soothing earth tones, taupes and beiges allow you to make the new transitional styling your own. The Forza combines wood cabinetry, Primera® furnishings and luxury plank flooring which together help to create a style that’s on trend and high performance.
Charge Up – The Winnebago Forza is equipped with USB and 110V outlets throughout the coach. The Forza nightstands include USB, 110V, an induction charger station and removable shelves for CPAP machine or other medical equipment. This allows you AND your devices, to recharge overnight.
Flexible Space – Slide out and breath easy. The Forza’s floorplans each feature a large gathering space with up to three slide rooms, a BenchMark Dinette, a TrueComfort+ Sofa Sleeper, and optimal Versa cab seats. The optional overhead cab powered StudioLoft Bed provides flexible family sleeping or storage. If you prefer, the Sofa Sleeper can be replaced with comfortable Theater Seating. There is an optional +Lounger Passenger Cab Seat as well that Includes a footrest and flip-up workstation.
Residential Comforts – Also available in the Winnebago Forza is an optional Washer and Dryer and the 34T, 36H and 38F floorplans offer an optional Electric Fireplace.

The Winnebago Forza and Adventurer are frequently compared because the Adventurer is the top of the line Class A Gas and the Winnebago Forza is the entry-level diesel. So when our guests are debating between the two they are trying to identify whether they want to move up to the Class A diesel lineup.

Most guests will opt for a Class A diesel pusher for the following reasons:

Increased torque or power, if needed. Our Winnebago and Itasca diesel pushers range in torque from 700 – 1,250 lbs ft of torque or power, compared to 457 in Ford Class A gasoline powered coaches
Increased towing capacity beyond 5,000 lbs, if needed. Many of our diesel pushers will pull 10,000-15,000 lb
Air ride suspension and air braking capability
The quietness of the ride, which simply stems from the fact the on a Class A diesel pusher the engine is in the rear of the coach, nearly 30-40 feet behind the cabin area. However, Ford’s evolution of its five speed Torqshift transmission has allowed for shifting at lower RPM points, driving down engine howl compared to previous powertrains
Resale value of a diesel pusher is typically stronger than in a Class A gasoline powered coach

Most guests will opt for a Class A gas motorhome for the following reasons:

Price – Class A Diesel motorhomes are going to be more expensive than Class A Gas. The Winnebago Adventurer starts at $152,862 while the Forza starts at $251,033.
Maintenance – Beyond purchase price, the overall maintenance and operating expense of a gas coach is also generally less expensive than that of a diesel. However, you may do less maintenance with a diesel pusher.
Operating Costs – Cost of parts and service work is less in a Class A Gas vs. a Class A Diesel because the work is less complex and it can be more convenient to find service locations for a Ford versus a Freightliner or Cummins dealer.
Fuel Considerations – the cost of diesel is generally higher than gasoline and the fuel economy is expected to be 7-10 with either the Class A Gas or Diesel.

Lichtsinn RV carries both the Winnebago Adventurer and Forza in various floorplans.

Lichtsinn RV, America’s closest dealer to Winnebago Industries, has been named Top North American Winnebago Dealer by Winnebago Industries for the last four consecutive years. We proudly sell New RVs manufactured by Winnebago Industries as well as Used RVs.

The Maxum Chassis sets the standard for diesel-pusher chassis with its lowered-rail frame providing better handling, a smoother ride, and incredible strength. In fact, the Maxum Chassis is seven times stronger than a raised-rail chassis which minimizes chassis flex and twisting. To top it off, the Maxum Chassis’ lowered-rail design increases the basement storage height allowing for pass-thru storage with room for slideout trays.

In conjunction with the exclusive Maxum Chassis, Winnebago offers Freightliner Custom Chassis’ V-Ride single axle suspension rated at 24,000-lbs. Freightliner Custom Chassis V-Ride is designed for luxury motorhome owners who want the ability to carry more gear, the freedom to equip their interiors with premium amenities, and a comfortable, confident driving experience.

Benefits of FCCC V-Ride –

Increased towing capacity
Quik-Align® allows for easy axle alignment without the use of shims
V-rod connection dissipates suspension forces, reducing stress for greater durability and longevity
U-Shaped Assembly – The transverse beam integrated with the trailing arm form a single-piece U-shaped assembly – enhancing stability at all speeds
Consistent Handling – The V-rod connection and U-shaped assembly design result in superior roll stability and more predictable handling in all road conditions, giving motorhome owners a confident driving experience
Smooth Ride – Large volumetric air springs and premium Sachs shocks deliver the smoothest ride available in a motorhome

FCCC V-Ride vs. the Competition –

FCCC has the Best Class A Ride

FCCC has a custom-built drive suspension by FCCC-engineering
Competition has an off-the-shelf truck suspension with swiveling bushing

Stability for All

FCCC suspensions are rated from 17,500 to 24,000 lbs. and designed exclusively for RV usage
Competition uses a generic truck/bus axle configuration

Driver Control

FCCC’s V-Ride is the only suspension that controls the weight of a top-heavy vehicle – giving control and confidence to the owner for the life of the coach.
Competition is still using technology that FCCC stopped using in 1999.
