Dealer Days Rolls into Las Vegas

It's a sure sign of spring and sunnier days ahead when Winnebago lifts the curtain on future models and products at the company's annual Dealer Days.

It takes a room as big as the Event Center at the Mirage to hold the company's growing line of motorhomes and towables, along with some other new and intriguing products.

Scott Degnan,Vice-President of Sales & Product Management, welcomes Winnebago and Itasca dealers from the stage at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas.

For three days, Winnebago and Itasca dealers from across North America will get to kick the tires and tour the latest models that, in several months will be appearing on the highway.

One of three new product unveilings, the new Scorpion fifth-wheel toy hauler, drew warm applause. Inside, it has some very inventive LED lighting along with Winnebago's high quality of construction.

This is also a time for the dealers to meet with key suppliers and vendors to learn more about the various chassis platforms such as Mercedes, Ford, Chrysler (RAM), and Freightliner. New advanced heating systems, GPS/Infotainment products, multiplex wiring, and several other vendors all have product specialists attending to help dealers better understand their products.
