I came from a 36’ DP and was used to a 15’ hose. My Era came with a 6’ hose. I remember thinking this must be a joke. Wrong. First the Class B is much more maneuverable so it’s easy to get close....

I guess reading comprehension is an issue. I admitted the ERA M nomenclature was my bad. In 2018 Winnebago DID make a coach that met the criteria in YOUR ORIGINAL POST except for the no shower...

Yeah sorry about that. I thought it was the M. When we bought in 2018 they had a 7 captain chair, dry rear bath model. I asked the salesman who the heck would buy that. He said they call it the...

I would suggest the Walmart in Bradenton. I never noticed a sign forbidding parking and often have seen RVs there as I drive by. Best of luck finding a large property near the water that isn't in...

I don’t think they make it any more, but Winnebago called their model Era M a Luxury Touring Coach.

On my 2018 the generator is located under the van behind the rear axle. Not usable space if removed. If yours is there, the bracket is probably rusted in and will take some effort. Then you need to...

From what you describe it does not sound like a water system leak. BTW the shower and sink controls are full of water whether you use them or not as they are on a common water circuit. This is only...

I have a 2018 Era with probably the same vinyl flooring and haven't experienced a soft floor. It sure sounds like a leak. I forgot to open the shower control when I winterized a couple of years ago...

I don't know how ambitious you are. I forgot to drain the shower head hose one winter and ended up having to figure out how to replace the shower valve. I learned that those plastic trim pieces on...

Another thought is to see if you can locate where the thermostat wires terminate at a relay or control system. You may find it is very close to where you want to relocate the thermostat. Mine...

I’m not sure I’d worry about the quality rating. I have a 2018 Era A and have only have a couple of trivial issues. I suspect issues on this one would have been found and dealt with. You might want...

You might check out the Winnebago Era X. I believe it has 4 captains chairs plus a seat-belted sofa. If the sofa doesn’t work you could remove it and bolt down another chair or two. I removed the...

Truma Bypass ID

The bypass valve on your Era can be identified as a T-valve with two blue pipes and one red. When winterizing the valve handle should point to the red line where it bypasses the Truma and hooks the...

To be fair to those who responded, you never mentioned that your Truma was working, that is putting out heat or heating water. If that is the case and you are seeing this error you have a bigger...

And since it was so easy I...

Thanks so much. Mine is also a 2018 so I expect we have the same generator and I will crawl under and check it out. Thinking I needed a key has been making me put it off!
