    PERRIS, Calif. - National RV hosted a groundbreaking ceremony to celebrate 
the upcoming additions to its already extensive facilities:  The Towable 
Products Division and the Service and Parts Distribution Center.

    National RV is expanding its manufacturing facilities to add a 164,840

plant will facilitate a strong presence in the travel trailer market as part
of National RV's continued commitment to growth and upward mobility.  By the
end of 2000, National RV will provide products that accommodate every
lifestyle and every budget.

    National RV is also adding a 47,075 square foot Service and Parts
Distribution Center to provide additional service facilities to meet the needs
of an expanding customer base in a timely, efficient manner.  The service
center will provide much needed support with 30 fully-sized service bays.

    These facilities will be located on a 19-acre parcel directly across the
street from the existing facilities.  Combined, National RV will house more
than 630,000 square feet of combined manufacturing and office space.

    The Groundbreaking Ceremony was held on April 13, 2000.  On hand to
initiate the project were Wayne Mertes, CEO of National RV Holdings and
J. Raul Gimenez, President of National RV.  Notable dignitaries in attendance
were Daryl Busch, Mayor of Perris, CA, Tom Mullen, Riverside County
Supervisor, Ron Mollendyk, Perris City Manager and renowned economist John
