Video Review of Winnebago Travato 59G
I posted a rather long review of my new 2015 Winnebago Travato 59G. You may want to skip thru some parts that don't interest you. http://wincrasher.blogspot.com/2015/04/new-2015-winnebago-travato-...
Forum Discussion
Excellent video with a lot of information that is very helpful to me, a perspective buyer of the 59G.
Just a couple follow-up questions.
(1) Battery and Generator Position - How serious should one be concerned with the low clearance of the battery and generator, including the potential of getting them damaged? Furthermore, how difficulty would it be for doing some routine maintenance work on them yourself, particularly with the battery? A specific question that I have about the battery is whether it is easy to connect a trickle charge cable to the battery terminals during winter storage time without removing the battery. Also, how difficult it is to remove the battery in case you really have to without using a high bay?
(2) The Need for Pumping out the Grey Tank - This is something that's not normally required by most other RVs and an additional piece of part to worry about. Do you think that this will stay with the 59G for a long time due to its particular floor plan or whether it likely that WB might eliminate this problem on the 2016 model of the 59G?
(3) Any words on when the 2016 59G will become available? What some of the things that you would like to see improved on the third year model, such as switching to the new hot water heating system as that of the 59K?
Thanks again for your great postings relating to the Winnebago Travato 59G and 59K.
