With so many RV manufacturers out there, how do you narrow down the right manufacturer and then the RV that is right for you? An important question to understand is what kind of company stands behind your RV. Winnebago Industries was incorporated in 1958 and since that time has been a leader in the RV industry. With a focus on Quality and Innovation Winnebago’s Customer centric approach is one that continues to make it a leader in the RV industry.

One of the many Innovations that Winnebago uses is the Mobileye Collision Avoidance System.

Mobileye is a safety solution for collision prevention and mitigation. The system includes a smart camera located on the front windshield inside the vehicle. It utilizes Mobileye’s vehicle, lane, traffic signs and pedestrian detection technologies to detect speed limit signs, measure the distance to vehicles, lane markings and pedestrians, providing the driver with life saving alerts.

Studies show that collision avoidance technology could avert almost 30% of crashes. Mobileye collision avoidance system gives you time to react. Mobileye scans the road ahead and uses its EyeQ chip and computer vision algorithms to detect potential dangers warning the driver with real time alerts.

SAFETY WARNING FEATURES INCLUDE:

Pedestrian & Cyclist Collision Warning

Forward Collision Warning

Lane Departure Warning

Headway Monitoring and Warning

More than 27M vehicles worldwide are equipped with Mobileye technology. Mobileye is a one-time investment that seamlessly integrates with most telematic systems.

Winnebago SmartSpace Design

August 10, 2020August 10, 2020lichtsinn

One of the many Innovations from Winnebago is the Winnebago SmartSpace Design.

SmartSpace Design innovations allow you to enjoy industry-first technology. Winnebago’s advanced parts supply system coupled with superior craftsmanship results in Winnebago Motorhomes being built with safety in mind and quality you can trust.

Two major components of Smart Design are SmartSpace and SmartStorage.

SMARTSPACE

The SmartSpace design philosophy encourages the use of innovative features to make the most efficient use of the available space in each coach. This design philosophy has led to the creation of features such as the BenchMark Dinette and the U-Shaped Dinette each with hidden storage compartments below the bench seats that can easily be converted into a sleeping space, unique pull out pantries and full-extension drawer slides found in many of the motorhome galley areas and the Flex Bed system allowing you to quickly and easily convert the living space or bedroom into different bed configurations. These are just some of the many innovations that have come about from the SmartSpace design philosopy.

Also included in the SmartSpace design process is molded component manufacturing. Winnebago builds their own rotational molded components manufactured in Winnebago’s Rotocast facility. Having the ability to manufacture components like water tanks, luggage compartments, heat ducts, and wheel wells in their own facility allows them to maximize space, ensure optimal weight distribution, and make spare parts available years down the road.

SMARTSTORAGE

Smart Storage is a better way to store your gear. It places bulky systems and tanks in improved configurations, leaving more room to maximize available basement storage. Exterior storage is also easy to access with innovative features such as a large trunk with multiple access doors and sliding storage trays on select models. Other features you might find include a storage well with drain plug, a compartment cover that converts into a picnic table, and tie downs to secure your items in place in open storage areas.

You’ll find a variety of SmartSpace and SmartStorage features across the entire Winnebago Motorhome lineup. Winnebago Smart Design is just one of the many reasons why Winnebago is the Motorhome manufacturer of choice for many RVers.

The Little Things that Make Winnebago a Superior Motorhome

What is Azdel Onboard?

August 5, 2020lichtsinn

Azdel Composite Panels are produced using a patented blend of polypropylene and fiberglass to create a strong, lightweight, quiet, weather and temperature resistant, odorless and environmentally friendly wall that will increase the life of your RV.

What is Luan? Luan is an RV trade name for underlayment plywood traditionally found in your motorhome wall. Often, the smells, mold and mildew that we all associate with water damage in a motorhome are the result of damaged luan. Azdel is a superior material that does not mold or mildew and has since replaced luan.

Benefits of Azdel Onboard –

Half the weight of wood: Azdel composite panels are lightweight yet durable. Half the weight of wood – just think of the fuel-savings.
Free of Formaldehyde, Mold and Mildew: Azdel composite panels do not grow mold, mildew, or emit toxic fumes. So you can breath easy with piece of mind as you travel in your Winnebago.
Water Resistant – No Delamination, No Rot: Water will not cause fiber decomposition on our composite panels, so there is no rot or warping. Wet/dry cycles can affect wood bonds and diminish structural integrity.
Temperature and Humidity Changes are Tolerated: Azdel composite panels are not damaged from freezing and thawing cycles, a common cause of delamination. Temperature and humidity changes are well tolerated.
Sound and Energy Absorbing: Azdel panels are porous which allows them to absorb sound waves instead of being transferred through vibration of wood panels. You are in for a quieter ride.
Puncture and Impact Resistant: Azdel composite panels are durable and stay strong. No adhesive failure from fluctuating temperatures can occur to weaken bonds.

Azdel Onboard is only one of the few reasons why Winnebago is the Motorhome manufacturer of choice for many RVers.

Your Winnebago Operator’s Manual

August 5, 2020December 15, 2020lichtsinn

Winnebago believes the more informed you are about your motorhome, the more you’ll enjoy it. So Winnebago includes a comprehensive Operator’s Manual that features key safety, operating and service information, along with helpful photos and illustrations. Then we go a step further.

Winnebago includes a custom-printed Operator’s Manual Supplement specifically for each coach that includes the information and operating instructions for all the components and accessories in that motorhome — everything from the refrigerator to the water pump. Better yet, the Supplement is cross-referenced to the Operator’s Manual, making it easy to find exactly the information you need.

Winnebago is the only manufacturer in the RV industry that organizes and prints this information specifically for each coach. And you’ll be happy to know that should your unique Operator’s Manual or Supplement ever need replacing, it can simply be ordered like any other part.

Winnebago also has an extensive online collection of resources, including service tips, frequently asked questions, and supplier links.

Winnebago’s Operator Manual is just one of the many reasons why Winnebago is the Motorhome manufacturer of choice for many RVers.

The Little Things that Make Winnebago a Superior Motorhome

August 5, 2020lichtsinn

Winnebago makes a big deal out of the small things. Here is a list of a few of the little things that make Winnebago better –

Fit and Finish – Fit and finish refers to how well parts fit and work together (for example, how well doors or panels line up, gaps in trim pieces, etc.). A high level of fit and finish requires high-quality parts, assembled with skill and care. In other motorhomes, you will see large or uneven gaps and excess filler or sealant are often clues to poor quality fit and finish. The result is a coach that is less tight and is more prone to rattles, squeaks, leaks and excessive wear.
Coated Fasteners – We specify a tough epoxy coating on critical fasteners to improve their holding strength and provide corrosion resistance for added durability. Competitors use hardware-store grade fasteners.
Aluminum-Skin Floor – We protect the underside of our coach floors with a durable aluminum skin that adds strength, resists moisture and protects against the elements. Some competitors simply paint exposed plywood, while others apply a cheap woven material, similar to landscaping fabric, that does not provide the protection of a metal barrier.
Stove Mounting – One of the joys of RVing is cooking. We pay close attention to how we mount our stoves, making sure they’re flush with the counter, with no exposed sharp edges or places for food to get trapped. Like a kitchen remodeling nightmare, this stove is mounted below the counter, inviting spills that will never be fully cleaned up

The little things are just one of the many reasons why Winnebago is the Motorhome manufacturer of choice for many RVers.

How Your Winnebago is Wired

August 5, 2020August 6, 2020lichtsinn

When it comes to wiring your RV, no manufacturer is more current than Winnebago. Winnebago employs several technologies to ensure the wiring in your motorhome is current.

Winnebago uses resettable breakers for 12-volt circuit protection whenever possible. They cost a bit more, but since they don’t require one-use fuses, end up being far more convenient for you. Others use cheaper inline fuses that must be replaced when blown. Winnebago also uses 12-Volt wiring. Winnebago follows standards for automotive standards for secure and reliable 12-volt connections. Wires are clearly labeled for easy identification and crimped and spliced using an advanced solderless welding process and heat shrink covering that virtually eliminates failures. Other manufacturers use twist on wire nuts or simple butt connectors, which are more prone to failure. They also do not label, or color code, their wiring making trouble shooting or repair more difficult and expensive. Winnebago also uses a 7-pin tow connector. 7-pin tow connectors allow you to take full advantage of trailers equipped with back up lights, electric brakes, or other accessories.

Winnebago’s wiring is just one of the many reasons why Winnebago is the Motorhome manufacturer of choice for many RVers.
