what a comment. It was obviously not from anyone that had ever stepped foot in the 34 Journey.
You have a hallway that passes through with the closed off commode area, opposite a corner shower with the sink area on the far inside corner.
You would have to walk away from the mirror while flossing, turn around take a walk back around the hallway, and then find your favorite target to flick at.
Oh well, guess it was a slow day in Bumpyroadville.
I certainly have stepped in lots of motorhomes with those walk thru baths and I repeat, I would not own one myself. and the 32T evidently was the one that I really liked myself.

Bumpy, Winnebagos have a SLIDING door between the bath and living areas. I close the bathroom door at home too. lol Tel the 34 H was on our short list but we fell into a good deal on the one be bought. The open bath with the large shower gives you extra space for dressing.

Hi Tel999, We are currently in the process of buying a 2005 34H Journey w/ the 350 Cat engine. We got a great deal on the rig and it is like new inside and out. We really love the floor plan and has all the goodies we wanted on a rig. It may not be the most spacious floor plan but I think it is very livable especially the separate toilet. Also a 34 footer you can get into a lot of national and state parks that can't handle larger rigs. I did two years of research before buying this rig and everyone I talked to loved their Winnebagos. We even went to several rallies with my father-in-law and got to talk to lots of people about all types of rigs. My father-in-law owns a 2003 Adventure loves it and has owned several others. Hope you have great luck with it and hope to see you out there on the road. Jack & Peg FMCA F403927

I fully realize that. I don't like to have to shut someone in the rear of my MH to have some privacy. If you like that arrangement, buy one. I won't.

We have an 02 Horizon with basically the same floor plan, just a little bigger. We really like it and in our case we prefer the split bath. We want a private toilet room so the main part of the bath is still usable when the toilet room is occupied.
You will find this to be a very good coach, well laid out, very functional with adequate storage and lots of CCC. Add the Super Steer Motion Control units to the suspension and the handling and ride will improve quite a bit. I have also added Centra-matic dynamic wheel balancers to all 4 wheel locations and that killed all the rolling vibration and I never have to balance my wheels again.

Horizon451, we have added nothing to our Journey and the ride is great, no roll or wind, you can take your hands off the wheel and it is straight down the road. Our friends have a 34H Meridian (same as a Journey) and they have no complaints.
We as you also like the private toliet area so we can shower or use the sink.

Tel999, There's one coach that I just adore it's a 34' Journey and this model (I can't remember the model letter) but it comes with the all in one bath and a cat motor. John

Bea PA,..... Our coach rode and handled well before adding the the Motion Control Units it just is a little better now. The main reason we added these was the driveway whip problem which is now gone.
