I note that Winnebago reported good financial news over the past couple of days that may be important for the entire industry. They reported they are hiring, their backlog is growing (1521 units or 350% increase over a year ago) and their losses have been cut substantially. All in all it sounds better than the very bad news of the past year plus. Anyone hear anything about other manufacturers.

(Please no harangue about Navistar/Monaco, it is not my intent to start that up again - thanks.)

Lew

Del, thanks, hopefully "a rising tide will lift all boats". There are signs that we are pulling out of the RV industry slump and we hope it will be with stronger and more innovative manufacturers.

I read, last week, that Heartland RV, in Elkhart, is calling back 200 employees.
