Last Train, only difference I see in your rig and mine is size of basement storage opening. Nice unit!
Lwiddis, I've seen Mini-Winnie's out and around, and they have struck me as similar to ours when I've seen them. Don't know anyone who has one to get a peek inside! No one could question your TT's quality, as far as I know.
But that pass-thru in ours is a great feature. For instance tonight we have in there various plastic crates to store categories of gear in there (electrical, potable water, cleaning supplies, dog stuff, laundry/dirty clothes). Then we carry 2 or 4 folding camp chairs, a utility tarp, insecticide, a couple of bags of Lynx leveling blocks, 4 wheel chocks, a pair of those short (flimsy!) folding camp tables, a tub for premixed packages of "geo method" black tank treatment, my fishing tackle and other stuff I've forgotten. Coachmen does provide a pretty nice picnic table that is suspended and strapped from the pass-thru's upper aluminum bracing. (We use that quite a lot.) All that gear contributed to this morning's measured tongue weight of 475 lbs before we shoved off.
If we really were smarter and more disciplined than we are, we could make better use of that space, probably. It's easy to get lazy with it.
