I get that all the time. For instance, turn on the shower hot water...all is well until the water gets hot. Then...the pressure really drops. Why? Don't know. But all I do is turn the knob...and the (hot) water pressure comes right back...then adjust it (for comfort) with the cold.
No problem.
Don't ask me why, but if the outside shower faucet is on with the outside shower head valve off, it can cause this problem. Make sure the outside FAUCET is off.

When my HW flow did the same thing, it was the check valve at the rear of the hot water tanks that had stuck almost shut. You can remove the valve as a temp. fix.

I also have a Winnabago Adventurer and have had the same problem. One time no hot water and another time very low flow. The problem is the check valve Winnabago installs on the back of the hot water tank. This check valve is brass, but the inside is plastic and can fail in a closed or partially closed position. You will need a 1" box end wrench to remove and reinstall the valve. Use extreme care removing the plastic plumbing fittings or they will leak when reinstalled

Ditto. Same thing with me. Reduced hot water. I replaced both valves.
