Kestrel Take
Winnebago's travel trailer line is a step above their motorhome-brand value at the same price. Better materials, better customer service support. The Minnie Plus is a well-laid-out family trailer. Inspect the slide seals and roof carefully — they're 6 years old.
What we checked
Not checked against public records
Motorhomes are in NHTSA’s database and we intend to use it. We have not switched it on yet because recall notices name sub-brands and floorplans rather than the model we key on, and folding them in carelessly would put another coach’s recall on this page.
