    RIVERSIDE, Calif., June 17 -- Fleetwood Enterprises' RV Group, a leading producer of recreational vehicles, today announced the launch of a new retail program for its Icon and Pulse Class C diesel motor homes. The program, which launches this month, offers qualifying customers a $7,000 cash rebate when they purchase a new, unused 2008 or 2009 Icon or Pulse from a participating Fleetwood RV dealer.

    "We have created this program to assist families that may be interested in purchasing a more fuel-efficient motor home to enjoy the RV lifestyle," said Paul Eskritt, President of Fleetwood's RV Group. "Both Icon and Pulse average 15-18 miles per gallon(1), so they are the perfect RVs to combine with this rebate program. At Fleetwood, we understand the pressure climbing fuel prices have put on the RV consumer's budget, and this is one way to help them go on the road this summer at an affordable cost."

    Featuring the new Dodge(R) Sprinter chassis, exterior highlights on Icon and Pulse motor homes include the Mercedes-Benz(R) 6-cylinder, 3.0L turbo-diesel engine for increased fuel-efficiency; pass-through storage; up to 138" long slide-outs for increased living space; highly styled front cap; and standard DuPont (R) full-body paint.

    Interior highlights include contoured, European-style cabinetry; Corian(R) countertops; Jensen(R) 19" LCD HDTV; and contemporary interior decor options.

    The rebate program is available for a limited time on products registered in the United States only.
