Riverside, CA (November 28, 2006) "” Fleetwood RV, a leading manufacturer of recreational vehicles, today announced the debut of its 2007 X2, a concept motor home / trailer toy hauler combination, at RVIA's 44th Annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville, KY. The debut in Louisville was an opportunity for Fleetwood's sales and product development to record feedback from its valuable dealer network.

Fleetwood X2 on a Workhorse W-24 Chassis

Powered by Workhorse - The X2 provides an 8,000 pound tow rating.

"Combining the success of our LX motor homes and our F.U.E.L. toy hauler products was the next logical step for Fleetwood," said Chris Braun, Executive Vice President of Fleetwood's RV division. "Our research has shown that the 2007 X2 is a viable option for the toy hauler consumer who wants more flexibility from an RV."

The 2007 X2, with a combined sleeping capacity up to 14, is loaded with features specifically designed for the toy hauler consumer.

Practically devoid of carpeting the interior speaks Toy Hauler

Very nice looking set up. I bet that black will be hard to clean water spots off.

Interesting. . .

They've hit some of the mark but missed some too.

1. How about a stacker trailer instead of a hauler?
2. Increased towing capacity for 1.
3. Removable carpet?
4. How about 4x4? Getting stuck in the sand is the worst part of an RV.
5. Pusher - Not gas engine.
6. That paint isn't what most of us would choose.

I think maybe a Rhino Lining skin might be more appropriate.

I have the same toy hauler my is 2007 and my motorcoach is the THOR Hurricane 365 HP 5 speed 2006 . That is way I am getting quotes on a full 2 color Black and silver paint on the coach and also the Toy Hauler to match . I HATE WHITE!!!!!! Also have place an order for the matching checkerboard awning both for the motorcoach and the toy hauler
Guys these are getting popular the toy hauler with the motorcoach setup.
First the wife or girlfriend can enjoy comfort inside the motorcoach with the direct tv with the roof mount sat system the new 2007 KVH Trac Vision in- motion R5 sat . And she can be on the internet lap top computor killing time .
The toy hauler also has a complete inside shower and toilet and kitchen and beds. We change our clothes before getting back into the motorcoach to drive back.
We both enjoy motorcross racing dirt bikes and also road bikes sports rice burners and also both like shifter go karts . When we just want to get away we do kayaks and mountain biking.
Believe me you won't even feel it back there the Toy Hauler.
My toy hauler also have the KVH sat system with dual line and dual Direct tv boxes on the roof so that they match the one on the motorcoach KVH trac Vision R5 in-motion sat with the dual line and dual direct tv boxes .
