2014 Winnebago Travato

I've seen similar bunk beds but the top one folds down as a couch backrest until bed time when it is pushed up into place.

The tank sizes they have listed for the 2015 goes like this:
Freshwater: 23
Water Heater Capacity: 4
Holding Tank - Black/Gray: 15/11 (YES it says black is 15 unless Winnebago misprinted and a dealer told me this is correct)
Fuel: 24

It is misprinted. Dealers are getting it off the site, which has it reversed. I sent Winnebago an email to get it corrected, but they haven't responded. The sticker on a unit I saw at the show had it correct. It's 11 black and 15 gray.

I agree you may be right, it makes more sense. BUT my husband called Winnebago on the phone and they told him 15 black, 11 gray. Fretz also told us 15 black/11 gray. So maybe the person he talked to at Winnebago uninformed? Also, if anyone hears anything about different floorplans for 2016 on Promaster would love to hear. I think a great idea also would have been for them to put something that they have in their new Brave, a flexsteel sofabed that flips up out of the way and that one also turns into a sofa or bed. That one actually turns into a large table also, it is so cool and ingenious. It would just have to be the right width, the Brave only goes to 40 inches wide. I would JUMP on this Travato right now if it had the option to use the back area as a sitting area also. I also hope they put a skylight option that opens in the front of the coach, seen them on European ones.

Winnebago doesn't make it very clear on their own website under their specs for the Travato which contributes to their confusion. But logic dictates it should be 11 gal. black and 15 gal. grey. Grey in any RV spec I have ever seen has always been greater than black. The black tank I would think sits above the floor under the toilet and probably could not be greater than 11 gallons in that situation. Then you better hope the grey tank is 15 gallons or you'll be visiting dump stations very frequently. 15 gallons for grey is rather small in itself.

[wincrasher]

It is, I tested it with my 7 gallon jugs.

Even Fretz who was at Hershey with the red one thinks otherwise, but I agree that logic dictates that it would probably be the other way around with 11 black and 15 gray for the 2015. Thanks. The 2014 specs show 11 black and 14 gray. 2015 specs probably misprinted and has a lot of people confused.

Thanks Windcrasher for clearing that up.I had to use the jug method to test my black tank capacity, which to my lament is only 7.5 glns or 8 glns ( filled almost to the bowl) if really in a bind .It was nowhere in the extensive literature that Coachmen provided with my 96 Saratoga .The sensors which work well also misidentified black tank as grey.

Does Wincrasher have a 2014? I would love to see someone who has a 2015 check the black and gray tank sizes for us also. Winnebago shows slight change to tank size from 2014 black/gray 11/14, to gray/black 11/15 for 2015. (Altho probably mean reversed )
