At the 07/2016 Outdoor Retailer Summer Market (Salt Lk. City, UT), Winnebago
unveiled its newest concept vehicle - a smaller, more nimble 4x4 vehicle targeted
at the"hard-core" outdoor crowd.

Built on the 4 wheel drive Mercedes Sprinter chassis with a short wheelbase and
single rear wheels, this Concept Adventure Vehicle has all of the features the
outdoor crowd might want so it can act as a base camp; and it's been carefully
thought out to reduce extras that might not be needed or wanted.

For now, this vehicle is just a concept, but Winnebago is soliciting feedback
to help shape its future plans.

Ernie,

What did you think of the pontoon boat http://www.pontoonstuff.com/collections/pontoon-boat-carpet-flooring/products/luxury-pontoon-boat-carpet carpet?
Have you ever used a glue-down , latex backed (pontoon-like) carpet in a Class A application?
I thought that and a few other ideas were very well thought out (given the market they are aiming for) & RV's generally.

You must hear all the flooring comments when coach owners decide to finally update.
I'm curious if this is something your customer would go for/like to use?
Is the cost (+$17/L.F. installed) comparable to what you typically install?
Is this a good solution in a Class A coach (i.e. sub-floor, glue-down install, flooring transitions,
underfloor heating, etc.) functionally and aesthetically long-term?
