American Coach Rolls Out New Innovations at RV Industry Show in Louisville, KY

DECATUR, Ind., Nov. 30, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- American Coach, the luxury coach division of Fleetwood RV, Inc., a leading producer of Class A and Class C recreational vehicles, unveiled key new innovations to its 2011 American Tradition, American Eagle and American Heritage luxury motor homes during RVIA's 48th Annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville, Ky. this morning.

The 2011 American Heritage 45BT can now add to its impressive list of features, which already includes and industry-leading 460 square feet of interior living space, dual sinks in the master bathroom and a revamped rear wardrobe with twice as much hanging space. The 2011 American Heritage also takes visual entertainment to a new whole level with 46-inch Sony® TVs in the bedroom and front overhead, as well as the recently added 40" Sony® mid-ship TV and entertainment center. Every television in American Heritage features LED technology which creates an unparalleled picture quality and provides customers with additional wireless capabilities.  In addition, the American Heritage on display in Louisville includes all-new LED lighting in the ceiling package to drastically reduce amp draw and provide lights that will last for year without the need of a new bulb.  

The 2011 American Eagle added a fourth model to its offering – a triple-slide, full-wall slide floor plan (45T). Loaded with all the luxurious amenities that are synonymous with the American Eagle line, one of the stand-out features in this new floor plan is the full-sized, walk-in rear wardrobe. This impressive wardrobe features enormous hanging space, a shoe rack, dresser and porcelain tile flooring. Adding even more spaciousness to this new floor plan is the bedroom's "mega master suite slide" that includes the bed and vanity and creates one of the largest rear bathrooms in the industry.

Not to be outdone, the 2011 American Tradition 45 Y – a 45-foot, quad-slide model with a "gourmet galley" – now features a brand-new L-sofa from Villa® in the living room, that helps create a more residential feel and adds more flexibility for seating positions.

"For 20 years, American Coach has been passionate about building motor homes that exceed the expectations of our most discerning customers," said Justin Humphreys, national sales manager for American Coach. "We are constantly re-evaluating ourselves and looking for the opportunity to improve upon our successes. It is this mindset and our commitment to the customer that has helped us enjoy a 30% increase in market share thru September 2010 and has made American Coach the sixth largest provider of diesel motor homes in the U.S. for the third quarter of this year.  This is a trend we look forward to continuing as we debut our latest innovations in Louisville."

American Coach is celebrating its 20th anniversary, which included the addition of American Revolution to the product line earlier this year.
