Thank you everyone for sharing your thoughts. I'm on the same page re: the cost and its a 2 person rv.
I wonder how easy it would be to overload the rear axle by over packing that huge rear full width compartment ?
In one the YouTube videos that's available , I like the insulated cab separator that has a pass-thru zipper . During the winter that cab would probably be the cold spot in this rv and that could cause limited use of those two driver/passenger seats while parked.
Good point on the ground clearance. Looking under the rv, the generator is the lowest sitting component.
I guess being that its AWD and a true 4x4 with transfer case, it was designed as a ski vehicle for better traction on flatter roads, parking lots or a sloped campsite.
I read somewhere that a lift kit was offered or in the making but it has not been decided if it will be a dealer item or a Winnebago option. The jury might still be out on that one.
By the time you get into that expense the $15k Quigley 4x4 conversion makeover doesn't seem so expensive anymore :).
The freshwater tank is actually visible from the underside of the Ekko. It is housed in a 1.5" insulated box that I 'think' gets heat from the inside, under the passenger side bed.
Happy and Healthy to all,
thank you,
Bob
