Good News abounds from businesses serving this great industry and calling Lane County "Home."

Have you been to the South Willamette Valley in Oregon this year? Then you’ve seen firsthand all the busyness and flurry of action taking place on dealer lots, at service centers, furnishings and accessories businesses. Actually the upturn in business is evidenced as well throughout the many Oregon small cottage businesses some way serving motorcoach enthusiasts and enhancing their RV lifestyle! RVers are returning to Oregon to spend their leisure time and enjoy the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. While here they're discovering all those great motorcoach resources are still here offering the Best of the Best services.

If you were able to attend the FMCA 90^th Family Reunion & Motorhome Showcase in Redmond, Oregon, August 13-16 you saw many new coaches on display that were exceptional. Like Marathon’s newest show coach valued at $2.1 million and loaded with upgrades and innovations. Wow! is all I have to say about that. Marathon recently announced it was hiring and that business was up.

Redmond OR show visitors were also treated to a look at some absolutely beautiful Pre-Owned Country Coach motorhomes in the Premier RV Services dealer display that made Luxury Travel at an affordable price more than just possible, but a reality! Located on 20+ acres of the original Country Coach campus, the company has been offering highline coach consignment sales, full service and indoor heated secure storage solution to motorcoachers nationwide.  In fact just today a news item on RV Business and RV Daily Digest news outlets reports on substantial summer sales in the Preowned coach division at Premier RV in Junction City OR.  http://www.rvbusiness.com/2014/08/premier-rv-services-reports-record-july-aug/

More great news for the RV industry was announced a couple weeks ago in the Eugene, OR paper, Register-Guard: “An Elkhart, Ind., RV firm has bought the former Monaco Coach plant in Harrisburg for an undisclosed sum and plans to restart production in a few weeks, a company official said Thursday. Forest River Inc. completed its acquisition of the plant last week, has hired back the plant’s former management team and soon will be hiring office and production staff, said Paul Eskritt, who is general manager of Forest River’s plant in Dallas, Texas, and will oversee the Harrisburg plant.” More jobs, more RV customers, and more dollars for the local economy are sure to result from this great news.
