Winnebago VISTA 26P reviews

Owned a 2009 Winnebago Vista 26p, and in fact lived in it as our only home for two years. Strong aluminum frame body, strong 8.1 L GM engine and transmission, 26 footer was easy to drive. Very nice quality interior with leather cab seating, an upholstered side chair, quality fabrics and cabinetry. We loved the rear slide with a walk-around queen and separate nite stands, 3 closets and 8 drawers. Storage features inside and outside surprisingly large for a small coach. Show less

I love this rv...it is bigger inside than it looks. it's comfortable, all one needs in this under 30 ft space. because it's called a 26 footer , reality is it closer tob27, it is easy to park at campgrounds or even on city streets..using 2 meters covers parking cost. If I want to sit on a couch, I put the dining room table down and put pillows on the back. There is also a good amount of underneath storage space. Show less

Smaller size Class A. Easy to maneuver around sites. Has plenty of hill climbing power. This coach tows my jeep without any effort and I can keep an eye on it with the rear camera. Air mattress is very comfortable. Comfort height toilet. I would highly recommend this coach. We have been to the Florida Keys several times and we loved the experience. We live on Cape Cod.I hope this review is helpful. Show less

The overall quality of workmanship and performance comes through in all facets of the Winnebago 26P. It handles beautifully, drives like a luxury truck, and the shorter wheel base gives it unparalleled maneuverability. The F450 V10 provides all the horsepower needed for highway or mountain terrain. There is plenty of living space with the living room and bedroom slides extended. The automatic leveling jacks and convenient centralized service center make set up, hook up and tear down quick and easy. Show less

This RV is a drastic downsize for us having traded from a 36+ Itasca to a 26' Vista. Both motor homes are Class "A" and we have opted not to tow a vehicle with the new smaller Motor Home. The result is just as we had hoped, we are entirely satisfied with every category listed above and every aspect of the Vista. The maneuverability of the Vista is unbelievable and we have all of the same "extra" features, automatic awning, hydraulic leveling system, slide outs, etc., Show less

This is a large down-size for us having driven a 38' Winnebago and towing a car for many years. We have enjoyed our 27' with no tow car tremendously. The maneuverability is amazing and we have adjusted our hookups so that there is no bending to hookup or breakdown quickly when we need to. We consider this a very favorable decision on our part.
