Winnebago Minnie 2801BHS vs East to West Della Terra 280BH
The difference that matters
Matched in length at about 32 ft, each with one slide and a rear bunkhouse, and within 258 lb on dry weight. Cargo margin is the clearest gap. The Minnie 2801BHS is 6,746 lb dry with an 8,800 lb GVWR. The Della Terra 280BH is 6,488 lb with a 7,805 lb GVWR and 1,317 lb of cargo capacity. For a family filling the fresh tank and packing for a week, that difference shows up fast.
The Minnie is the better-equipped trailer. It has 200 W of solar with a 30 A controller, 12 V tank pad heaters, solid-surface counters, a 10 cu ft 12 V fridge and 1.5 in fiberglass sidewalls on an NXG frame. It sleeps seven with a front queen. Its tanks are much larger, 60 gal fresh, two gray tanks totaling 96 gal and 49 gal black, against 40/60/30.
The Della Terra has a lighter dry weight but a heavier hitch, 805 lb against 658.
