"Thunder Mountain".....I know adding a built-in like the FisherPaykel may seem daunting, but it's pretty easy. The only difficult work would be the wood work. I was asked to install one in a Newmar that didn't have one. I started thinking about the fittings, especially for the drain and it seemed nightmarish until I looked at mine. There is actually a drain pipe piece that replaces your current under sink elbow that directly connects the drain on the Fisher. The water is already there and they use a 110 volt out for power.
So the only work would be to frame out the new one.
We really love our F/P. We add dishes and plates for about three days and then run it in the evening. It is sooooo quiet, you can't hear it run. It actually uses less water than washing by hand. We're not lazy, but often dishes sat in the sink until after dinner. Now they go directly into the washer until it's full.
Since your coach is new, also think about Winnebago just making you any wood work you might need, like a frame or cabinet door.
