The aluminum rounded motor home is making a comeback in 2006. Supposedly 
in a 39-foot size. This according to the tour guide on a tour I took at 
the factory last week. The popularity of the used ones was a factor in 
deciding to manufacture them again.

I saw a class "C" while I was in Jackson Center. It was painted grey. I 
also heard the pricing issue and that it had priced itself out of the 
market.
