Any Winnebago Aspect Owners ?

We've had our unit since 2008 and like it a lot. We keep looking at new units but can't find anything we like as well. There have been a few problems, but nothing out of the ordinary.

We have a 12 model, dont really care for the U shape dinette, but i dont want to spend $1500 to change it out! Only problem we have had is setting the ride right with the air bags too low and it wanders too hi and its a rock ride. The front seats we have leave some to be desired and the entertainment system is a little on the complicate side if not a teenager. Even my 30 YO had issues trying to make it work!

Since you are not a ford guy I would encourage you to look at the 5star tuner for it. makes shifting better and gives the engine better manners with less downshifting and going to 5K rpms. Presently have a leak from the shower area that I need to get to prior to next months trip.

We have a 2008 26A which is a little smaller than yours but we love our Aspect. The only real issue we had with ours was clear coat peeling on the top cap. Our was originally an Arizona unit so I suspect the sun contributed to this. I know earlier model had this issue along the top of the sides of the roof where the roof curved down to meet the sides. We also replaced the plastic toilet with a better porcelain one. Other than that the quality and build are amazing. I think the horseshoe shaped dinette is the most comfortable dinette I have ever sat in for an RV.

Couldn't be any happier with our 27K..

We are second owners of an '06, 23D and very pleased with the unit. If you haven't already, view the brochure and have a look at the online schematics, parts lists. Link: https://winnebagoind.com/product-resources/product-information

As noted, it lacks outside storage and on ours, there is no good place for the sewage hose and most BBQ's are too tall to fit in a compartment. It also seems built lower to the ground, so you need to be careful entering and exiting driveways. For us, this was a mixed blessing because it allowed the coach to be shorter and therefore fit under the eave of our house.

We like the quality of the hardware and there are little features we appreciate. Slide out pantry, all the doors, coach and cab lock with a single fob, closet light. The kitchen drawers are on full extension glides and have nice latches. One that would get us on previous RV's was the exterior porch light, one would forget it was on and run the battery down. Our Aspect, when that light is on, there is also an interior light that also goes on to remind you to turn it off. The factory supplied radio is feature loaded, but totally untuitive in operation. One of these days I'll replace it.

The Ford components have been reliable and work well. Having a Ford vans for many years, I got used to the handling quirks and my wife doesn't mind the slightly cramped passenger seat. Not much choice in this department.

My 2 cents +

Thanks for the input/replies.

This one has the option 15T Air Spring Rears. Without physically crawling underneath and looking , looks like it has those Firestone two fat donuts stacked on each other air bags each side located on the inside of the leaf springs , but can't see any hoses etc nor did I see a valve stem/gauge anywhere to adjust them ?
The owner didn't know anything about it...

Wife loves the big horse shoe dinette , can't stand the standard small dinettes most are set up with. So that's a plus there.

Like most have said the more storage you have the stuff you'll load up.

When we emptied out the MH Monday night , I couldn't believe all the stuff we had crammed into nooks and crannies that we never even used.

Need to do some measuring of the storage compartments openings and just see exactly what will fit and won't.

Thanks for the replies !

Check the link in my previous post. The parts diagrams should show exactly where the valves are. On our 23D, the Schrader valves are in the rear portside compartment, where the water and drain connections are.

We got a 2012, 28T Cambria (had a 2007, 26A Aspect), love & enjoy both. On the 2012, the valve stem for the air bags are in the driver side back storage, also the fresh water dump valve is in that storage. We also love the horse shoe dinette that is in both models (one reason we upgraded from the 2007 to the 2012 to keep the dinette, which was not in the 2013 & beyond). Swivel driver & passenger seats in the 28T (once you figure best way to tackle it) are nice improvement over our 26A. Always been a Chev Trk guy, but really love the Ford V10 & Tow/Haul transmission. Also bought both RVs with low mileage (2007/7,000 at 2 yr old, 2012/9,000 at 4 yr old). We also down sized from an "A" to the "C", and then up sized from the Aspect to the Cambria (2'). Every choice has its + and -, but we always adjust to be happy campers. Pops

Thanks Norm ! Finally figured out how to navigate through the site you posted.
According to that the valves are located in the same compartment as the outside shower is...
