Our Winnie Class C remodeled for two
I have been debating on whether or not to post this, finally decided it may be of interest to RVers wanting a small comfortable RV for two.
In 2010 we decided we wanted to change the way we traveled by RV so we in 2011 we sold our 30? two slide Winnebago Minnie and the Jeep we always towed. We purchased a used 19 1/2? Pleasure-Way Class B and did many extended trips in it for over the 18 months we owned it. We really liked the small MH the way it drove and the idea we didn?t need to tow anything, but it was just too small.
We wanted something a little bigger, and decided Winnebago?s model 24V class C like the Minnie, Outlook, Spirit & Chalet floor plan would work for the way we wanted to remodel it into a Winnie for two. Two good things about the 24V plan is a flat floor under the dinette or optional couch and a RV queen bed. In June we found a private party that had a 2006 Winnebago Chalet 24VR for sale and purchased it.
Since purchasing it we have removed and replaced the following: The small swivel chair by entry door under TV cabinet taken out and replaced with a small oak storage cabinet with a wall mounted 26? Visio LED HDTV. DVD/VCR and added shelves in the old TV cabinet. Existing vinyl flooring covered with new carpet except at bathroom area. Large dinette removed and replaced with two La-z-boy rocker recliners and some new paneling to cover the holes on the wall from removing the dinette. We made a small table that we set up in front of our chairs for eating and card playing. Removed the bathroom door and replaced it with privacy curtain. Since completing the remodel we have been on two trips extended trips without towing anything and have found it is working out great for us.
That?s the story of Dick & Ellen?s Winnie for two.
