FMCA convention to feature UFO™ test drives on Monaco, Winnebago units </span>
We've found that nothing stirs the positive chatter about the Workhorse UFO™ chassis more than test drives. And this month RVers will have their first chance to test drive the two most recent motor home models built on the Workhorse UFO™. That opportunity is coming at FMCA's International "Georgia Jubilee"¯ Convention in Perry, Ga., March 20 to 22. Winnebago Industries will be offering test drives on its new Itasca Latitude built on the Workhorse UFO™, while Workhorse will be providing test drives of the new Monaco LaPalma on the Workhorse UFO™. Both are rear gas-powered units.
Those interested should head for the Winnebago (No. 1812) and Workhorse (No. 1230) booths to sign up. But you can sign up online right now for the Workhorse/LaPalma test drive by going to

In fact, reserving a spot on the Web might be a good idea because the Workhorse UFO™ is proving to be the most popular test drive chassis we've ever had. Test drive slots filled up early for the January Florida RV Super Show in Tampa, and RVers were standing in line at our booth waiting to sign up for their "UFO experience."¯
