RIVERSIDE, Calif., Sept. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Fleetwood RV, a leading producer of recreational vehicles, today announced the nationwide launch of its 2007 Pegasus and Orbit Ultralight travel trailers. Starting at less than 3,000 lbs, the all-new Pegasus and Orbit Ultralight travel trailers are truly "ultra" light. With several new floor plans and a full-range of convenient features, these redesigned towables include everything consumers have come to expect from Fleetwood RV.

The 2007 Pegasus and Orbit Ultralights have spacious interiors -- with 80" ceiling height and 8' width -- in a package that is light enough to be towed by most half-ton vehicles. The laminated exterior construction keeps these towables lightweight, durable and solid, while still retaining their sleek style and easy maintenance features. Lower overall height, available enclosed underbelly and aerodynamic front cap round out the features that make the 2007 Pegasus and Orbit an easy-to-tow camping companion.

"The Pegasus and Orbit Ultralight travel trailers were completely redesigned in the 2007 model year," said Chris Braun, Executive Vice President of Fleetwood RV. "The recent product launch in Canada has been well-received by dealers and customers alike, proving that we have successfully brought Fleetwood's flair for style and innovation to the ultralight marketplace, and we anticipate similar success from our U.S. product launch."

The aluminum frame, lightweight floor and new chassis construction on the 2007 Pegasus and Orbit yield an average 20% weight reduction when compared to Fleetwood's prior generation of lightweight trailers.

The 2007 Pegasus and Orbit also feature vibrant exterior graphics that complement the streamlined design, as well as three new trim levels:

* Pegasus/Orbit Sport -- smaller units at a great value * Pegasus/Orbit -- full-featured * Pegasus/Orbit LE -- larger floor plans, more options and enclosed underbelly

The 11 high-function floor plans on these 2007 Ultralight travel trailers offer customers a variety of rich interior features, including top quality cabinetry, laminate countertops in a natural stone finish, and elegant interior decor selections.
