RIVERSIDE, Calif., Dec. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Fleetwood RV,
a leading producer of recreational vehicles, today announced its
success at RVIA's 44th Annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville,
KY. New products and floor plans drove a record amount of traffic
into Fleetwood's display, resulting in positive sales numbers and
increased dealer prospects. "This year's Louisville show was a
tremendous success for Fleetwood. Our folding trailer and travel
trailer divisions met their sales goals, while our travel trailer
division added 45 new dealer distribution points and our motor home
orders were up over 37% from last year," said Chris Braun,
Executive Vice President of Fleetwood's RV Group. "In addition, we
introduced several new floor plans, which were well-received by our
dealers who were upbeat and enthusiastic about Fleetwood's renewed
focus and the years to come." Fleetwood's Louisville product
display highlights included: * Fleetwood Folding Trailers launched
its first 12-foot Highlander series folding trailer model with a
total weight of 2800 pounds for easy towing by smaller vehicles.
The Destiny Sedona folding trailer model with a refrigerator also
made its debut in Louisville. * Fleetwood's Ultimate Extreme Line,
or F.U.E.L., toy hauler brands (RedLine, Nitrous and GearBox)
continue to be extremely well received by dealers. Dealers like the
product segmentation Fleetwood has established with RedLine as the
value leader (low price), Nitrous HyperLite as the lightweight
offering, and GearBox as its high-end, full-featured product. The
new GearBox 290SA "side aisle" and RedLine 375FSG "garage" floor
plans are also proving to be popular additions to the F.U.E.L.
family. * Pegasus and Orbit were completely redesigned for 2007 and
have received very positive dealer feedback. In addition to the
recently expanded line up (featuring 21 floor plans), the higher
level LE trim series boasts more than 20 all-new features,
including an aerodynamic front fiberglass cap. * Fleetwood's motor
home division launched its new value-priced Class C motor homes,
Tioga Ranger and Jamboree Sport. The debut of these new products
also marks Fleetwood's first appearance in the entry-level Class C
marketplace. Tioga Ranger and Jamboree Sport were well received by
dealers and accounted for 18% of all motor home orders taken at the
show. * The front kitchen floor plan on the Discovery and the
first-ever 42-foot Revolution LE also made positive debuts in
Louisville. * The must-see product in Fleetwood's display this year
was the 2007 X2, a Class A gas motor home with full-body paint,
