2015 Winnebago Brave


They finally did it. Winnebago announced that the Brave will be returning for 2015. No, that's not Pixar's rendering of a modern Winnebago for use in an upcoming Cars sequel, it's the real deal. What better way to dress up the boring brick designs of Class A motorhomes than with a nod to the past? This is a good looking coach. I just love the massive windscreen.

The good news doesn't stop there, though. The 2015 Brave will be available in two different floor plans. The 26A plan is fresh, innovative, and is great for the family that loves to go camping. There is a studio loft bed in the front and the rear. There is a sofa-bed that can sleep two. There is forward-facing seating for five! This is perhaps my biggest complaint about Class A designs today. They're all designed for couples. There isn't much good seating for those who want to enjoy the journey. This is not the case with the 26A. There's captains chairs for mom and dad, another captains chair (for grandma or grandpa) plus two forward facing seats at the half-dinette.

Classic good looks, seat-belts for five, sleeping capacity for up to six, under 30', and Winnebago is promising to price the Brave aggressively. It just makes me smile. Thanks, Winnebago!
