Leading the way is a new Brave 31C floorplan that is making its debut at the show. The new Brave brings back the legendary “eyebrow” design with a fresh new modern look. Beyond appearance, the new Brave is loaded with today’s best features and is offered in three versatile floorplans fit for weekend getaways or extended trips.
Available in both the Brave and Tribute lines, the new 31C features a full-wall slideout on the driver’s side of the vehicle, while there’s a dinette slideout on the passenger side, making an incredibly large living area inside. With an available StudioLoft bed over the cab area, sofa/bed, and a rear queen or optional king bed, there is sleeping available for up to six inside. The Brave and Tribute 31C also have plentiful storage, including a large wardrobe across the bedroom wall. A split bath with privacy doors on either side also provides a flexible living space.
A full complement of products will be on display, including a “Flame Red” Travato complete with optional bike rack, luggage rack and ladder and kayak racks that appeals to active outdoor enthusiasts. Built on the Ram ProMaster chassis, the fuel efficient Travato Class B has a flexible floorplan, complete with murphy bed that attached to the wall to maximize floor space for bringing along your favorite toys, unique screen doors, and much more.
Another great new Class B floorplan is the Era 170C. Built on the fuel efficient Mercedes-Benz chassis, the Era 170C features a slideout and hydronic heating system. The 170C also features a storage system in the rear of the unit that has a unique door that goes into the shower stall, providing easy access to large items such as golf clubs that you may want to store inside.
The ultimate in luxury, the Ellipse Ultra 42QL is also on display. Featuring the show-stopping “Bronze Halo” premium exterior full-body paint package and the interior “After Hours” fabric collection with “Glazed Java” cabinetry, the Ellipse Ultra is the final stop for luxurious living. The Grand Tour and Ellipse Ultra feature the 450-hp Cummins turbo-charged diesel engine on the Freightliner Maxum chassis tag axle chassis with lowered rail construction for an unequaled ride, performance and storage capacity. Inside the Grand Tour and Ellipse enjoy luxury six-way adjustable Villa cab seats in Ultraleather with power footrest, heat and massage and power lumber support.
