New Member with 2016 Brave 31C

I am living full time in a 2016 Brave 31C. I’m hoping to connect with other Brave 31C owners in the hopes of obtaining help/advice on things regarding my Brave. I will also try and give my experiences along my journey. I work in the Denver, CO are and travel throughout the state on my days off.

Greetings Brave9868,
You know, the 2016 Brave 31C might just be the perfect motorhome for full-time living. At 33' long, you can get around pretty well, but it is still very spacious. Of all the Class As Winnebago has made, that bodywork is the coolest! What color did you get?
Another advantage of the 2016 model is you have the 6-speed automatic, which is a huge improvement over the prior 5-speed. So that was the last year of production for the retro Brave, right? A guy has to wonder why they were discontinued.

Hello Eagle5. Is that red one yours? I like that one in the red. I have the blue one and you spot on about it being spacious and rather easy to get around in; even though my first day owning it I sideswiped a large rock misjudging a left turn. I’ve had a few rookie encounters with it; but not cause of the RV, just me not thinking. I’ve gotten better with it and absolutely love living in it so far. I am having some brake issues as they are squealing pretty bad. I also have an issue with the generator panel; it’s screen has gone completely blank and I cannot figure out how to reset it.

I want to submit some pics, but I don’t know how or have them on a url.

Good morning Brave9868,
The photos above are just three I grabbed off the web. My motorhome is a Minnie Winnie 22M, which for my needs is just perfect. The longest trip we have ever taken in it is one week in duration, so for stuff like that, the smaller size (& cost) are a bonus.
Blue is a great color for the Brave.
As far as the generator panel and the brake squeal, you can submit separate Threads for those questions which will garner better responses from the crew here, which you are now a part thereof.
Photos posting instructions are here.
I hate to ask, but how bad was the damage from the rock scrape?
Thanks, Eagle5
