I commend Winnebago for being daring enough to have a completely different layout than any other coach at the FMCA Rally in NM.

Not having to turn your head to watch the TV, and we all do it, is simply super smart!!! Very classy. You have to see it to believe how great it looks and how smart it is to cater to the typical MH owner. Two adults.

Somebody make me a loan, please.

I know, I know, bunk beds are good too, if you have children.

Which layout do you like? I have an '07 Adventurer 38T and the TV is right in front of the chairs. Love it. I don't see anything too different.

Go back to Winnebago forum owners, click on the sponser, click Winnebago. On left side of ad see Tour? Click it.
It's the Tour BD with the seating in "pink". The couch is directly across from the flat screen. You may have to enlarge it. It's not the one Tom is depicting.

Nice , really well though out,

But not new - we had the same layout on our 2005 Journey 39F.
In fact we liked it so much it was the deciding factor in buying it.

Good to see they have continued it on the TOUR

IDK,

With exception to the front TV and the rear wardrobe, looks just like my 40MDTS

Do you have any direct link info. I couldn't find the link you were talking about.

I'm biased, but I like the 40TD (discontinued). The scale on the plan is inaccurate, making the TV area look too small. Ours has the fireplace below the TV...very comfy.

I'm intrigued by that couch with the slide out section in that BD floorplan. That's a really innovative design to increase seating capacity. Did you get a chance to see that in action? I wonder how easy it is to deploy & retract?

Yes they did a demo at NM and requires no strength for any action in the seating area. It had a king bed.
No TV above driver in front. Does have fireplace below "main" TV.
Sorry no link, except for the ad as I described, and seeing it in person. It's still the 400hp ISL.
They redesigned the driver/asst. driver's chairs, bringing them in line with some of the pricier Class A's. And as previously posted, the sketch of the layout is way out of proportion (which they should have noted). The living room is perhaps just like one in a stick house.
Honestly, you have to see it to believe it. Winnebago really made a jump forward with this particuliar model. The MSRP is only ten grand up from my 08.

Kerry

I previously thought we had bought our LAST coach. Shows what I know!

twoinner-I agree, that couch is nothing short of fantastic. I called Winny to find out if this couch will be available as a stand-alone. The gentleman said they have received dozens of calls from people wanting to know the same thing. When you saw this couch do you think it could work in an existing Winny MH say a Meridian or similar with only one living room slide? It is hard to tell from the pics as to just how much room would be needed to walk once the couch was fully extended if you catch my drift here. I would love to put that in our Meridian. Any comments?

We recently took delivery on a 42AD. The layout and the sectional sofa are two of the features that sold us on the unit. The fireplace and TV make a very cozy living room feel. We stayed in 10-20 degree weather and the Aquahot is the bomb! DW likes the continuous hot water for laundry, best RV shower I've ever taken.

I don't know if any coach can be retrofitted with the "couch". Pictures do not do it justice. Closed up, there is reasonable (like any other manufacturer) access to the bathroom and bedroom.
Robodoc: I had a very hard time getting DW out of the 42AD, sort of like a wrestling "smackdown". I was the smackee!! Congratulations on your new coach. Please make a post from time to time as how things are working. Thanks.

Kerry
