The only con is the fact they don't make them anymore so certain Ultimate specific parts are no longer available...like the lighted door handle and the door bell.

Pros: Excellent coach with a lot of bang for the buck. 2002 or 2004 EPA series Cummins diesel (not a newer one with more EPA stuff hung on it). Spartan chassis. Solid construction and high grade interior components.

We have had ours for 9 years and have found few that compare feature wise and layout wise that don't cost a heck of alot more.

Great coach!!! ...real shame that Winnebago quite building the Ultimate line as they sure did it well!! We have over 60k on our '03 and have not found a coach we like better!!! ...and have yet to have a need for any "Ultimate specific" parts that we could not replace.

An 03 UA with 3 slides. Been full timing in it for 7 years and still love it. Have made several enhancements to make a good thing even better. The DW would like the carpet replaced with wood flooring but I'm not looking forward to that one. The new Allure flooring products may make it easier.

We bought our first RV a 2002 UF in June of this year. We love it. The only real problem so far is a leaking windshield, which seems to happen a good bit in this vintage according to others on this forum.

Excellent coach ---- all I have had to do on the 2002 Ultimate Advantage that we have is to do upgrades that I wanted to do. Quality coach. Winnebago quit building it as they did not have the marketing department in place to sell such a high end coach. Everything on it was top quality.
