Winnebago – other models: US motorhomes under truck registration, from the Minnie Winnie to the Elandar 34, eight-cylinder engines from 6.2 to 7.1 litres, gross weights from 4.6 to 7.2 tonnes
Winnebago was founded in 1958 in Forest City, Iowa, and ranks among the largest US motorhome makers; because the vehicles are built on Ford or Chevrolet truck chassis, the register lists them under trucks rather than motorhomes. The Minnie Winnie has been one of the best-known compact Class C motorhome lines since the 1970s, with its characteristic over-cab sleeping area; the WCN and WCD codes denote further Winnebago series.

The register lists 7 variants here with eight-cylinder engines from 6,200 to 7,107 cm³, kerb weights from 3,960 to 6,340 kg and gross weights from 4,600 to 7,200 kg. Lengths range from 7,040 to 9,500 mm, widths from 2,430 to 2,510 mm.
Winnebago motorhomes have shaped the North American recreational vehicle market since the 1960s, and in Europe they are driven mainly by import enthusiasts and by rental operators serving US road trips. Used Winnebago chassis are also popular among enthusiasts as a base for custom conversions and motorhome rebuilds.
When buying used, check the condition of the Ford- or Chevrolet-based chassis frame and brakes, damp in the body, roof and window seals, and the function of the onboard electrics, generator and water system; chassis parts come through the respective US brand network, body parts through specialist motorhome dealers.
