Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

One thing that stands out to me, if you catch it in the video, is that they are including a "power management system".

I think that is because this coach is dangerously close to exceeding 30 amp...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

I've looked hard at the Trend and the Dynamax REV. At first blush, they seem amazing - the door is contemporary (for RV standards) and you have a ton of seating, cabinets, dry bath, etc.

But the...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

Well, there is no accounting for cheap. These can be had for $65k with virtually no negotiations.

Heck, look at all those awful mid-80's and 90's class A's that are still on the road -...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

I agree wincrasher. My personal opinion is that WGO will maybe?? abandon the ProMaster class C's they are building right now, and change over to the Transit diesel & EcoBoost.
The reason I feel this...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

I expect the long body van, with that tremendous rear overhang, to have less than desirable handling characteristics.

Where this van will shine, though, is the cut-away chassis.

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

It wouldn't really surprise me if WGO became the first manufacturer to abandon the Sprinter completely. Think about the markets they go after - they position themselves to be a value line for the...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

No worries George, your input is great!

My only complaint with the manufacturers is that things are moving so fast. They are constantly tweaking and making "running changes". On one hand, it's...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

Their water tanks have a spout and cap on their tops. The 59G is the same way. It's a really inexpensive way to have a fill I suppose.

So this tells us the water tank in the 59K is under the...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

Thanks for the info wincrasher. Still, look at the cut-out for accessing this secondary inlet. It couldn't have been done better and in a more practical area. Like Mies van der Rohe was saying: God...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

The fresh water inlet under the bed is a secondary, gravity fill inlet. The primary fill is pressurized on the exterior of the van.

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

No worries, I understand what you are saying. To me, quality is how well something holds up with use. Some may not like the finishes chosen, or the layout, but those are not quality issues. But...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

He has posted a few times about the deisel promaster. I think that is his preference.

I'd say it's a toss up whether the G or the K would be their preference. The G would be better for thier...

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

FWIW, all the cabinets are provided by an Italian supplier (same in the 59G) and are not made in house. W builds the kitchen cabinet, bulkheads and the bed bases.

Re: Fit RV gives detail review of Travato 59K

Did you pick up that they said the refrigerator is 4.3 cu ft? I don't think that is correct. I think it's a 3.4 cu ft.
