Have a question?Get answers directly from the host
Q.I'm over 6'-0" tall and 250lbs, will I adequately fit and be comfortable sleeping in the main bed?
A.
Yes, the main bed is extremely comfortable and anyone 6'-2" or taller will have to sleep at a slight angle, but the bed is plenty wide enough to accommodate.
Q.Is Henry a "Stick Shift" Manual Transmission that requires knowing how to clutch and shift manually?
A.
YES, Henry is a 5-speed manual transmission that requires the knowledge and skill set of using a clutch, knowing engine RPM, and shift pattern. It is an extremely easy stick-shift to drive so if you have not driven a stick shift in several years dont fret, Henry is very forgiving.
IF you have never driven a stick shift before in your life, Henry is NOT for you.
Q.We are planning a Fall Trip or Winter Adventure well below freezing, will the wood stove keep us warm?
A.
YES, Henry is very well insulated and was constructed to be a true 4-season adventure rig. The wood stove is sized and built specifically for the cabin size of Henry and once the first fire is lit and things warm up to temperature you will be su very pleased with your cozy warm cabin.
Please see our "ADD-ON" option with precut and split firewood sized for the tiny stove and precut composite 4-hr fire logs for the "overnighter" logs before bed.
