Same - we've had a lot of fun with ours. Just got back from another 5 day trip. We tow ours with a 4runner and this trip I had our canoe on the 4runner and we averaged 11mpg going over the North Cascades. Unfortunate that others are having such horrible experiences with theirs.
Winnebago really missed the mark on this one. What good is a toy hauler if you don't have a ramp door to load your bikes or whatever? Plus, with a ramp door, you can also add a tent enclosure and practically double the space in this tiny trailer. And why does the RV industry insist on turning what is basically a coffin into a bathroom? When an RV salesperson tries to suggest there is plenty of room in these little coffin bathrooms, I don't trust another word that comes out of their mouths.
Hike100 is a swing and miss. Can’t wait to find someone to buy mine to get out from under it. No instructions for any of it, and I had no kidding at least half a dozen things break within the first trip. Not sure why it’s advertised as having off-road suspension when the interior can’t even hold up to a smooth gravel road free of potholes without everything falling apart. The bathroom is basically unusable (I'm only 5'10 for reference). We only use it as an absolute emergency, otherwise it's outside like tent camping. The fridge isn't propane so you need a generator 24/7 or are forced to use an ice chest. The "Electric cooler" it comes with isn't battery powered so again you need a generator or running vehicle making it nearly pointless. The ridiculous batwing awning? If I wanted to spend an hour setting up a tent I wouldn't have bought a trailer. The Hike 100 is basically an overweighted towable covered bed with a water pump and heater that dropped my gas mileage to 6MPG. Best part? No dealer near me will even honor the "warranty" for everything that immediately broke since I didn't purchase it here. Winnebago should be ashamed of this one.
I'm glad people seem to dislike this camper because I got mine at 50% off msrp and actually really enjoy it.

We backed out of buying one after a thorough inspection. Not well designed or constructed.
But you cant store things when the bed is down right? bc the couches cant stow while the bed is down.
ok wow....innovation
