Serious question, on the part below, who requires more maintenance? We've owned 5 motorhomes (including an earlier Itasca) and a TT and I honestly don't know.
I've had RVs for 40 years and maintainting a bead of caulk on a roofline is light work compared to what some require.
Somehow I'm missing it?
My question is what builder and/or roof system requires more checks and/or maintenance?
We've owned 5 motorhomes and a travel trailer and none of them had this type of required maintenance schedule.
I will admit washing a true EPDM rubber roof is a pain, but in the 5 years we owned that one I let nature wash it.

Every time a Winnebago roof comes up, the same grumblers and same photos come up. I have no issues with the design and for me that is all that matters.
The point is that an owner shouldn't have to make these fixes to keep their roof on. Over this much time and the many complaints Winnebago should have corrected their system.

HI all,
I am going to look at a 2004 Winnebago Adventurer with a fiberglass roof. I would like to here from those who have this kind of roof and if there is any big problems with them.
Also those of you who have a Winne how do you like it? From what I understand they have pretty good reputation as a quality RV.
This rig is 38' long. It is the 38R floor plan which we really like. It is a few feet longer than I was really wanting but it looks like a very comfortable floor plan.
What is it like driving a 38' with a toad on the back.
It has the Workhouse Gm Allison drive platform. Is this enough power for a Rv of this size.
Thanks,
Phil
