When most people think of Winnebago, they think of motorhomes, but Winnebago also has a very successful towable division. Adam Christoffersen is the Product Manager for Winnebago Towables. He joins us to talk about the history of Winnebago towables and their future as they introduce two new RV’s to their lineup, the Hike 100 and Micro Minnie FLX. These new RV’s have boondockers and outdoor enthusiasts in mind with upgraded power systems, creative storage ideas for bikes and kayaks, and ways to conserve water.

Adam also shares some of his day-to-day responsibilities, what makes Winnebago towables stand out from other towables on the market, and how Winnebago implements customer feedback into their various products.

“Winnebago is like Kleenex of tissues, which helps us stand out, but we are not just going to rest on our name. We’re looking at what type of innovative products, floor plans, and how we can build quality into our manufacturing process, so the product stands tall when it gets to the dealer and goes through their PDI process. This way, it gets to the sales lot cleaner, and with quality that’s built-in, the customer can realize it. A dealer can realize it and wants to stock more and sell more.” – Adam Christoffersen Product Manager, Winnebago Towables Division.

Collaboration Within Winnebago

One of the things that we enjoyed hearing Adam talk about was how he and his towable teamwork with the different departments in the Winnebago company. For example, Adam used Winnebago’s Class B van team to brainstorm with them and come up with innovative ideas that can be used in the towable lineup. These in-house collaborations lead to some of the stand-out features in their new Micro Minnie FLX and the Hike 100.
