Featherlite unveils
ultimate SURV for outdoor enthusiasts
CRESCO, Iowa / June 19, 2007 – The amenities in
Featherlite’s newest Sport Utility Recreational Vehicle
(SURV) Model 7941 make it the ultimate hauling vehicle
for outdoor enthusiasts and their motorized equipment.
The durable aluminum SURV’s enhanced style and
functionality is highlighted by a spacious garage, two
slideouts and a ‘stand-up bedroom’.
The new SURV Model 7941 will be introduced to the media
and general public during the IRL race events, including
the Iowa Corn Indy 250, being held June 22-24, 2007, at
the Iowa Speedway in Newton, Iowa. It was unveiled to
Featherlite’s 230-member dealer network in May as part
of the annual Featherlite International Dealer Meeting.
“The unique, functional design of the Model 7941 is new
to Featherlite’s SURV product line and fully maximizes
the living, garage and storage space that is desired by
recreational enthusiasts,” Featherlite National Sales
Manager Randy Lewis said.
The 40-foot fifth wheel with 12-foot garage features two
space expanding slideouts, including a 12-foot slideout
with sofa sleeper and dinette and a slideout in the
bedroom area. The new design includes a “stand-up
bedroom” that allows for additional head room to make
moving around easier than in other similar trailers. It
also includes a bedroom “loft” with a queen bed in the
rear of the trailer.
A kitchen with refrigerator, double sink, island
counter, cooktop stove and oven as well as a full
bathroom with neo-angled shower, vanity with sink and
linen closet complete the interior.
‘Basement’ storage that can be accessed from the
exterior creates additional room for transporting
equipment needed for recreational activities or camping.
The interior décor including fabrics, woods, flooring
and countertops were custom designed and installed
in-house at Featherlite. As announced earl ier in 2007,
Featherlite has partnered with Sierra Custom Interiors
to offer the new Featherlite/Sierra Interiors
Collection. A number of striking interior options are
available in Featherlite SURVs.
“Featherlite SURVs have been popular with people
enjoying a wide array of outdoor activities including
ATVs, motorcycles, dirt bikes, dune buggies, off-road
vehicles, hunting, fishing and more,” Lewis said. “The
Featherlite SURV allows them to enjoy the outdoors
without leaving behind the amenities of home.”
In addition to the new Model 7941, Featherlite’s SURV
product line includes Models 7924 and 7943. New options
and features on Featherlite’s existing SURVs include
larger and more solar reflective windows for more
privacy and a cooler interior, standard exterior L.E.D.
lights and standard loading lights over the ramp for
easier nighttime loading. Eye-catching and weight
reducing aluminum treadplate is now standard on the
surface of the SURV ramp. New standard entertainment
features include a flat screen TV and big sound stereo.
Featherlite has been building all-aluminum trailers
since 1973 for hauling cars, ATVs, snowmobiles,
motorcycles, horses and more. Featherlite also
manufactures race car transporters for leading
professional race car teams and is the official trailer
of NASCAR, IRL and Champ Car. Featherlite has built its
legendary hauling capacity and impressive durability
into every SURV model.
“Unlike some toy haulers that are made of steel,
fiberglass or wood, Featherlite’s SURV trailers are
manufactured with premium, corrosion-resistant aluminum
that is lighter, more durable and easier to tow,” Lewis
said. “Featherlite’s construction allows for heavier
load capacity and more years on the road. In addition,
Featherlite SURVs have a lower floor height that makes
loading motorized recreational vehicles and equipment
easier.”
New! Model 1610 now with interiors options
In addition, Featherlite’s popular
recreation/utility trailer Model 1610 is now available
with numerous interior options to create a ‘miniature’
SURV including sofas, a kitchen area with refrigerator,
microwave and sink, TV, pedestal table and more.

CRESCO, Iowa / July 17, 2006 – Outdoor activities – from riding
ATVs, motorcycles and dirt bikes to maneuvering dune buggies to
hunting and fishing – continue to grow in popularity. With that
growing popularity are people’s desires to travel to their
recreational activities for days at a time and still feel at
home. Featherlite’s Sport Utility Recreational Vehicles (SURV),
including its new 2007 models, features and options, continue to
offer that luxury to outdoor enthusiasts.
Featherlite, the leading manufacturer of NASCAR race car
transporters, has built its legendary hauling capacity and
impressive durability into every SURV model.
Featherlite’s new SURV for 2007 is Model 7925. A bumper pull,
the 7925 is 28-feet long and includes a cargo wall, which
creates a 10 ½-feet length in the garage and cargo area. “The
cargo wall allows for a separate area from the living quarters
for hauling and storing ATVs, motorcycles, dirt bikes, dune
buggies, off-road vehicles or outdoor equipment,” Featherlite
National Sales Manager Randy Lewis said. “It means a neater,
cleaner, more efficient space all around.”
New Model 7925 comes with a standard goucho sofa and dinette in
the living quarters portion, in addition to a refrigerator,
cooktop stove, restroom with shower and toilet, vanity with
sink, closets, colorful graphics and more.
In addition to the new Model 7925, Featherlite’s SURV product
line includes Models 7924 and 7943. Model 7943 is available in
24, 28 and 32-feet lengths plus the length of the gooseneck. New
for 2007, the 28 and 32-feet lengths, are available with the
“garage wall package” that creates the cargo wall that separates
the garage and living area. Model 7943, as well as Model 7924,
each include two fold-down benches, a refrigerator, cooktop
stove, restroom with shower and toilet, vanity with sink,
cabinets and an optional pull down queen bed in the rear. The
7943 also includes a bed in the gooseneck.
New standard features now available on all Featherlite SURVs
include cargo netting that is above all overhead cabinets in
SURVs with the cargo wall, which allows for additional interior
storage space. Also standard is Featherlite Gripstar rear ramp
lining that is designed to grip the tires of the recreational
vehicle for a smooth, slip-resistant entry into and out of the
garage area. The SURVs also come with a 100-gallon fresh water
tank, a porch light and lighted grab handle at the entrance of
the living quarters, a new sliding shower stall door, a wall
mounted thermostat and six tie downs per trailer for securing
cargo.
“In addition to hauling motorized recreational vehicles,
Featherlite SURV trailers are perfect for hunters, fishermen,
rock climbers and other outdoor enthusiasts for hauling all
their outdoor gear while on trips away from home,” Lewis said.
Many new options are available with Featherlite SURV trailers
including 110-volt flat screen TVs, electric double queen beds,
a portable exterior grill, 20 gallon fueling station and
exterior speakers. Featherlite SURVs come with a standard Route
66 décor package, but SURV owners can also choose from
Featherlite’s Red Glory, Simulated Pine and Simulated Oak décor
packages.
Featherlite has been building all-aluminum trailers since 1973
for hauling cars, ATVs, snowmobiles, motorcycles, horses and
more. Featherlite also manufactures race car transporters for
leading professional race car teams and is the official trailer
of NASCAR.
“Unlike some toy haulers that are made of steel, fiberglass or

addition, Featherlite SURVs have a lower floor height that makes
