The copy also states, “This year go 'The Winnebago Route'…in a ’73 Brave!” If you’re two for the road or the small family looking for a first buy, the sprightly Brave will take you into the heart of the great outdoors without leaving those home-like comforts behind…you can choose from three Brave models.” (The Brave D-18 D-20 and D-20T) It’s a ski lodge on wheels, a cottage by the sea, a cabin at the lake.
