This is a gamble for Winnebago, but I think there will be people buying this "C" just because of the high MPG (I think upper teens.)
There are a few nice features, such as the on-demand water heater. There are downsides as well. No slideouts is the biggest thing, but with a drop-down bed, it might not be as big a deal. The second downside is that this MH doesn't tow that much (2000 pound tow, 200 pound tongue which is enough for a cargo rack, but not much else.) One is definitely not hauling a toad with this rig. However, those downsides are not too bad, provided one doesn't mind packing up camp and using this to park at a county fair and such.
Just the MPG numbers will get it in the door in some households. Having similar fuel economy to a full size pickup truck is a lot easier to swallow than 8-10 MPG.
The price too is easy to swallow -- a couple thousand more than their "B", which is very strange (normally "B"s cost far more), so I would expect this to sell in the mid-70k range.
There's NO way that will get "upper-teens mpg!"
Just as there's NO way that unit will sell in "the 70s!"
The Winnebago LINK clearly states the price of; "$87K."
I think there's a great need for a unit loke this. It is basically half the price of the Winnebago View 24' diesel MB Sprinter.
I really am interested in a Winnebago Class C or larger as my next unit. I am soo tired of all the roof leaks in my $100,000.00 Born Free Class C!
you should be able to get 20 percent of msrp and 20 percent is on the low end at least 25-this is on a c. different economics on b
