From big to small, it would seem we’ve had enough of this sitting around the house and just want to go; anywhere really. Honestly now, what better way to do that than with a Winnebago, right?
That’s right! What you’re looking at is a true Winnebago. This specific model is known as the Minnie Winnie. No joke. And the builders seem to also stick to the "no joke" rule I just made up mentioned. Why? Keep reading, and you’ll find out soon enough. If you’re not really into reading, just click here and check everything out on your own.

Still, my job is to offer you a blitzkrieg of information that will give you some general idea of how this motorhome is different from the rest. For example, what’s the level of comfort that it offers? Keep going as you’re about to find out.

To start off this whole Minnie Winnie business, we’re going to run through the base vehicle for the model. But, and this is a big but, there are six different floorplans to choose from, not to mention two different base vehicles. The first option is that of a Ford E350 chassis with 350-hp and a 7.3-liter displacement. The second option is of a Ford E450 chassis with the same motor specs as the E350, but a much larger living space.

If you want to find out the exact dimensions of each of these models, go back to the first paragraph and click where I told you to. As for the important business like where and how you'll be cooking your meals or cleaning yourselves up, and even sleeping, the remainder of the text is reserved solely for this purpose. Mind you, that's still not enough to cover all the details.

One important thing to note is that each floorplan does affect the appliances and their size within the space. For example, not all Winnies are going to include the same size fridge. Three models come with the smaller fridge option, while another three include the larger version.

Speaking of refrigerators, one of my favorite places whenever I'm looking at something like this is the kitchen. Why? Because I like to cook. But please don’t tell anyone, as my apartment isn’t very big. Mind you, the kitchen in the Winnie really feels solid and capable for me to almost unleash my full potential. However, a three-burner range with a glass cover and oven is enough for most recipes.

Another option affected by the floorplan choice is the sink, and the bathroom too varies greatly. Four different options for a shower are available, with the 31H floorplan offering the largest. But each plan includes a medicine cabinet, skylight, powered roof vent, toilet with foot pedal function, and even multiple towel bars and hooks.

Since we mentioned the 31H bathroom, we can also mention that this floorplan also includes the largest sleeping capacity of all models. Believe it or not, this motorhome is designed to accommodate eight, I repeat, eight guests. How? With queen bedding, bunk beds, couches, and retractable sofa beds. What more could you want? You can literally invite two families for a comfortable trip.

If I were to say that this is the end to all the perks and systems this home has in store for you, I would be lying. However, time is a pain in the neck, so I'll leave it to you to dive deeper. After all, any good guru will show you where to look but never what to see.
