Dodge Pro-Master Winnebago Travata

[Butch1979]

Has anybody checked one of these Winnebago Travato models out? It kind of seems like they are attempting to creep into the market that Sportsmobile (2wd) and Outsidevan have previously been covering. I like the front wheel drive aspect the Dodge Promaster offers. Additionally, this is a class B camper with a bathroom and shower all within 21 feet.

Thoughts?

Reviews seem solid on the unit.

Checked these out.. Super cool. We met this couple at a local RV show, great detailed reviews.

Actually it looks like they're catching up to the style of Safari Condo, although I think that those have better utilization of space, and excellent quality from what I've read.

Went and checked one out very briefly tonight. Cool van. Definitely targeting the more "outdoor" focused consumer with the bike racks, roof rack and solid refinement. I'm not sure it is the next rig for us, but I would encourage folks to take a look at it.

The're definitely cool for what they are. I could see these filling out some RV rental fleets as well.

Just like the ADV market has swept the motorcycle crowd, I believe it is also starting to finally creep into the RV world. It's nice to see more market offerings, but bike racks and bumpers are only for looks IMHO. For it to be a truly appealing market option it needs GOOD insulation and 4WD as a base. Then add the goodies afterwards.

additionally, the generator is apparently the low point under the van... no spare tire either. Mild dirt roads would be the most these could do.

I do agree that it's cool to see more options.
