About the 2024 Grand Design Transcend 261BH

The 2024 Grand Design Transcend 261BH delivers enough room for the whole family to spread out after a long day of hiking, swimming, or exploring.
Off-grid capability is well supported thanks to a 20-gallon fresh water tank, 37 gallons of gray water holding, a 31-gallon black water tank. Energy management is handled by 200-watt solar charging capability, 150 amp-hours of battery storage, a 1000-watt inverter for household AC power. A 13,500 BTU air conditioner keeps things cool in summer heat, and 25,000 BTU of furnace output tackles chilly evenings. Food storage is handled by a Single-door compressor fridge. Outside, a 14.5-foot power awning provides welcome shade for outdoor dining and relaxation.
