Wednesday I took delivery of my new 2016 Winnebago View 24J 25' and then promptly put 1000 miles on it. My previous rig was a 2006 Forest River Georgetown SE 33' Class A. I couldn't be happier with the change.
The comfort, handling, and overall drivability are much closer to my Chevy Silverado than any motorhome I've ever driven. It makes the F53 chassis under the Georgetown feel like a Mack Truck with loose bolts!
Inside, the craftsmanship is even more differentiating. The Winnebago is like a custom-built apartment. I was utterly shocked to see real steel furniture springs under the dinette seats, as opposed to the high-density foam that is standard in the industry. Everything is so logically thought-out, it doesn't feel like a 24% smaller RV. Likewise, we find the Mercedes seats to be much more usable than the captain's chairs in the class A.
Sorry for the stock photos, but they're way better than anything I take!
