Fleetwood Announces 20th Anniversary Edition Bounder Motor Home

Interior and Exterior Enhancements Attributed to Customer Feedback Ensure Its Reputation as a Leader in Class A Motor Homes

RIVERSIDE, Calif., Sept. 1 -- Fleetwood RV, a leading manufacturer of recreational vehicles, today announced the launch of the 2006 Bounder gas motor home. The launch marks the 20th anniversary of one of America's most popular motor home brands. Maintaining its original standards, Fleetwood has designed the 2006 Bounder with features emphasizing function and value, allowing it to live up to its title of the "Motor Home that Really Works!"

Officially introduced in 1986, the Bounder set the standard in the motor home industry with the first basement storage design, a feature found in most motor homes today. Over the years, customer feedback has helped revolutionize the Bounder, making it more contemporary and practical while sustaining its brand identity and value.

The 2006 Bounder features significant upgrades, which include 22.5" wheels, exterior graphics package, taller windows, two new interior decors and an increased interior ceiling. The 84" ceilings create seven feet of head clearance for a maximum feeling of openness. Fleetwood incorporated these substantial changes while keeping production costs to a minimum, ensuring Bounder customers get a superior product without the additional cost.

Inside, the 2006 Bounder has all of the comforts that customers desire, including 27" and 20" flat screen Panasonic televisions, a lounge recliner and a glass shower with skylight. A whole-house water filtration system along with 50-amp electrical service create the reliability today's RV enthusiasts deserve. The 2006 Bounder also features more flexibility in options, such as multiple floor plans ranging from 32 to 36 feet with two or three slides, a fully-functional computer workstation and full-body paint allowing the consumer to tailor the motor home to their needs and budget.

"With the help of customer feedback, the Bounder has remained true to its origins over the past 20 years while retaining its status as an innovator in the industry," said Chris Braun, Executive Vice President of Fleetwood RV. "Fleetwood is committed to upholding its dedication to the originality, functionality and style and we have no doubt that our 2006 models will keep the Bounder a favorite with both our customers and dealers."

The 2006 Bounder gas motor home will have a base MSRP of $97,000. For more information on the new Bounder or any other Fleetwood RV products, please call 877-308-7644. To learn more about Fleetwood's complete line-up of recreational vehicles visit www.fleetwoodrv.com.
