RIVERSIDE, Calif., Nov. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Fleetwood RV, a
leading producer of recreational vehicles, today announced it will offer its
patent-pending SpacePlus(TM) full-wall slide technology in the 2006 Discovery,
Excursion and Providence Class A diesel motor home lines. Building on the
success of its full-wall slide system, Fleetwood is expanding its offering of
the technology to include the 2006 Discovery, Excursion and Providence motor
homes.
The new models will be launched to dealers at the 43rd Annual RVIA
tradeshow in Louisville, KY. First introduced on the 2005 Pace Arrow, the
full-wall slide system features a 27-foot slide-out wall, providing over 390
square feet of open living space. Fleetwood collaborated closely with
Freightliner Custom Chassis to significantly lower the engine and eliminate
the typical step-up around the master bed, creating a rear living space with a
flat floor, seven-foot ceilings and an unprecedented level of openness
throughout the coach.
The 2006 Discovery, Excursion and Providence models also feature
additional exterior color choices with coordinating interior options and large
E-Z Store exterior compartment doors which extend with the slide-outs. Each
unit emphasizes comfort with more options including water heaters with
16-gallon output capability, sofa sleeper with air mattress, automatic-start
generators, and 14-cubic-foot refrigerators.
"We wanted to enhance our diesel product line in 2006 to offer our
customers the most innovative RVs on the market," said Chris Braun, Executive
Vice President of Fleetwood RV. "With the groundbreaking SpacePlus(TM)
full-wall slide design we are able to offer more space, comfort and style than
most traditional diesel motor home floor plans."
