National R.V. Holdings, Inc. Announces Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing

PERRIS, Calif., Nov. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- National R.V.
Holdings, Inc. (Pink Sheets: NRVH) (the "Company") today announced that the
Company and National R.V., Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, filed
voluntary petitions under the provisions of Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Central District of
California, Riverside Division. The Company has taken these actions after
determining that seeking Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection is in the best
interests of the Company, its creditors, stockholders and other interested
parties in light of ongoing financial challenges and the inability to
adequately fund operations and obligations. The Company is a
debtor-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Code and orders of the
Court.

Dave Humphreys, the Company's Acting Chief Executive Officer, stated,
"We are saddened to let go our excellent employees, especially so close to
the Holidays, and even more so because National's motorhomes have never
been better than they are today. After evaluating our options, however, we
ultimately determined that seeking protection in bankruptcy was in the best
interests of creditors and shareholders."

Tough times ahead for everyone, just like the fuel embargo in the 70's.

Rising oil prices will not cause an oil shortage as in the 70's. High oil prices will actually guarantee that we have a continuing supply and that is good.

Not sure if any saleable products are tied up by the court pendning liquidation of assets. You might try PPL Motorhomes in Houston. They picked up the remaining Genesis (King of the Road) motorhomes when KOR decided to quit the RV biz.
