Thought I'd add about the batteries. It actually has a type of slide out tray for the batteries but the access door is too small for the tray and batteries to slide out. WTH??? We replaced the original 12 volts with 6 volt golf cart batteries from Sams Club. Use a battery watering system as the tight quarters prevent easily looking in the cells to check the water. As for chassis, Winnebagos are pretty light for their size, the 22K chassis is plenty stout enough. Comes with the bigger wheels and tires. While the shorter wheelbase will make for a bouncier ride, you have the advantage of far better maneuverability in tight quarters, something that comes in handy at closely spaced gas station islands (watch the rear overhang swinging out, though). Everything is a tradeoff.... It was priced at the top of it's model line..think that turned many people off. We got a deal buying at the end of the 2015 model year.
