Good Evening , I was told years ago that Winnebago had the best engineering , and made a coach to last a long time . Well I lived in Pa. for a long time and had to have a inspection once a year , and even the inspectors said they were the best for the money .
Keep up the good work Winnebago.. Tommy Tucer![]()
We just traded in our 04 33v adventurer 8.1 for an 04 horizon kd 350 cummins. We had good luck with our adventurer and hoping for the same with the new to us horizon. We had 30,000 miles on the adventurer and the horizon has 12,000 miles.
We are hoping to retire in 3 years.
I don't know that I've piped in on this thread so I had to pull the trigger. We've RV'd in some form for several years off-and-on. Started with a pop-up and TT. Then a couple of years ago we went for a Class A gasser.
I'd always wanted a MH and couldn't resist the 1999 National Dolphin 36' we found that was in fantastic condition. Long story short, we bought it and enjoyed it a little over a year. Then I got a temp contract assignment in San Francisco for this year (2011). I hated to see the RV just sit back in TN so we put it up for sale....of course I wanted a little newer unit also! hehehe Ended up selling it in a couple months and started looking for a Winnebago that was a little shorter and had two slides. I got sold on the Winnebago when I saw the solid roof, support online, and so many other features that show that Winnebago has put thought into their RVs over the years.
We looked for months and finally found a 2002 32V, double slide, Winnebago Adventurer. Only problem was it was in Texas. So, after a lot of emails and calls I flew to Texas to look it over. Ended up buying it b/c it was as advertised. By the way, great dealer .... Best Preowned RV . Even got new hardwood floors in the RV and a warranty!
We're going off on our first 'run' with the RV over the next few weeks. Actually were going to a local state park that is closer to our daughter's house since the first grandchild is coming this week!!!!!!! So, keep us in mind with the new addition to the family and the new-to-use RV addition.
A quick update. The RV checked out great. The rest of the story is a tree limb feel on our son-in-laws truck (I borrowed) and busted his front & driver's window, plus several huge dents on it.
Then we return home and wait a few days ..... storm rolls through and neighbors tree falls on RV. If you want to follow here ya go.![]()
Wow, you guys have been to hell and back. Wow!
I am having trouble starting my adventurer after it has been running for awhile. After it sits for 1 to 2 hours it starts fine. Any one having this kind of problem? I had heard that there was a notice put out by winnebago about a wiring problem related to this too.
What kind of problem is it? Won't turn over? Turns over but slow? Spins fast but doesn't start? Need more info.I am having trouble starting my adventurer after it has been running for awhile.

Hi, new owner here with a leveling problem. Our 'new' rig is a 2003 32'Journey DL with the Cummins 5.9. It has the HWH leveling system. I need help with this. When I was putting up the jacks the last time, the RL didn't retract all the way and I couldn't push it up. Fortunately it was only down 2"+ and there was plenty of clearance, but the darn buzzer drove me crazy all the way home. Since that one got 'stuck' none of the system went up or down. By way of 'full disclosure' I probably 'interrupted the system by turning the key or trying to slide a room or something, but so far I can't find anything - including the fuses or the hydraulic pump to use the manual retract. all ideas needed. the manual simply says take it for service, but there must be something simple - a reset or something. all help appreciated. getting the rig ready for Baja bound in three weeks. thanks,
