Itasca VIVA

Does anyone have one of these models? Was quite impressed with it when we saw it at the Tampa RV Show, especially with the claimed mileage and the engine being a 6 cylinder. Just looking at options here and hopefully some opinions from others.

  • I would say to look at both the 23L (corner queen bed floorplan) and the 23B floorplan. Both are completely different, and suit different needs. I prefer a permanent bed, so having to kick everyone out of the lounge area if I wanted to take a quick snooze isn't for me. However, the 23B has a lot more usable interior space in the kitchen and bathroom.
  • The Trend is a nice size (23 ft). We have the View (24 ft) and it suits us perfectly. Make sure you like the floor plan. There are two in this model. The View has 3, and we sure wouldn't like the others in this model. Both of these are a little limited in cargo space which is why I'm working on increasing that.
  • The Winnebago Trend/Itasca Viva is a Euro-style class "C". It is about a foot fatter and taller than a Travato, and four feet longer.

    I've wrote up something fairly extensive about it on the "C" forums, from what I've gathered, research wise.
