LIFESTYLE Luxury RV Unveils Floorplan Details

LIFESTYLE Luxury RV, a new high-end fifth-wheel manufacturer and a division of EverGreen Recreational Vehicles LLC, has released a detailed floorplan of its first model to be launched for the 2013 model year.

“We are excited to release the initial floorplan design of the luxury living and quality construction RV buyers can expect from LIFESTYLE,” said Greg Kitson, lead design engineer. “From the spacious island kitchen with Corian countertops, to the enormous residential-size shower, to the full-height bedroom with its impressive storage space — this is year-round living at its finest.”

• Large entertainment center with pull-out desk.

• 6-foot, 6-inch slideout height in the living room

• Large walk-in front wardrobe with full-width hanging storage and shelving.

• Large linen closet in the bedroom and room for stackable washer/dryer.

“This outstanding floorplan design is the perfect complement to the overall high level of quality and construction LIFESTYLE offers the discriminating RV buyer,” said Elliott Bond, national sales manager for Middlebury, Ind.-based LIFESTYLE . “In fact, it was our dealer partners and customers who inspired and helped develop this product. They played a deep, personal role in developing this exciting new model and floorplan – they have their ideas, desires and needs built into it.”

“Along with superior livability,” added Bond, “our owners can count on top performance from features like the Bigfoot hydraulic leveling system, MOR/ryde suspension, Owens Corning insulation, a 40,000 BTU furnace, Goodyear G-Range tires, frameless windows and a four-step entry.
