What Is It?

 

In Winnebago Minnie Winnie motorhomes on Ford E350 and E450 chassis, this is included on the dashboard. My 2015 Minnie Winnie has one. I've never bothered with it.

This is a topic of discussion in the Facebook group page for Minnie Winnie Class C Motorhome Owners. It has been described as follows:

• On our 2014 31H (with 2013 e450) it’s where the key control is for turning off the passenger front airbag.
• It’s for an audio plug, like if you wanted to attach a player to the radio aux input. 
• It is the passenger seat ejector button for when the wife gets real annoying.

New Awning

Today, I posted a photo of the new awning at the Minnie Winnie Owners Facebook page. I was asked, "What happened to the old awning?"

My response:

Well, not too long after getting the RV, I was parallel parking it on the street and I didn't notice a telephone pole was leaning towards the street. It rubbed against the awning and did something to it. Years later, due to weathering, it started to separate more. A good wind would tear it further. It was not repairable, so I got a new fabric.

Getting a new awning fabric was one of the things I had done yesterday at La Mesa RV. The hardware was in excellent shape, so it wasn't necessary to replace it.

Minnie Winnie Owners Facebook Group

A couple of months ago, the "boss" of the Minnie Winnie Owners Facebook group asked the members to submit a photo of their Minnie Winnie to use for the page's header photo.

I just noticed (it's been up since last Thursday) that the photo I submitted of The Beast is now the header photo. It is a shot taken at the Double J Campground in Chatham, Illinois (near Springfield) I took last November.

The group is open to any Winnebago Minnie Winnie owners.

Here's the link to the group.
