Woo Hoo! Finally picked up the 2011 Zinger 26BH today, got it at it's new home at the storage lot! LOL. First tow (about 40 miles from dealer) was fine, not as bad as I thought it would be. But I sure missed the usual 20 mpg I get on the highway in my Ram 1500, I got a whopping 8 mpg towing the Zinger! Oh well, if you're worried about mpg then don't get an RV I guess! LOL. Come on spring, we're chomping at the bit to take 'er out!

Hi and welcome from another new zinger owner. We bought the ZT26BL and have camped in it one time so far. Just watch out, ours in getting warranty work on the awning as the awning kept falling down and almost hit me in the head! A couple of others mentioned a similar problem so be careful when setting up for your first time and watch that the pins are going all the way thru when you extend the awning up. Otherwise enjoy your wonderful new zinger

Thanks for the "heads up" (literally, LOL) anaro. I'll keep an eye out for that.

your welcome. Enjoy your new toy. The wait for the nicer weather was the hardest part. Now that we had it out once, i literally want to go every weekend. It is killing me that this is a beautiful weekend and it is in the shop fora week for warranty work (the shop is 2 hrs away). Oh well, we have a trip scheduled in a couple of weeks, I'll keep myself busy shopping for things for the TT.

Enjoy your new Zinger we have spent 4 winters in ours. Camp in your backyard it lets you have fun and figure out if you have any problems before you start pulling it.
