| Jayco's 2012 Sustainability Report |
It's time for an update on Jayco's EcoAdvantage program. This program is our commitment to sustainability. We want to ensure your family — and future families — have a place to camp.
We launched the EcoAdvantage program in 2011 with ambitious goals. We want to become landfill free, consume less energy, reduce product weight, integrate more sustainable materials and reduce fresh water usage.
It's been a year since we've reported on our progress, and we thought Earth Month was a perfect time to clue you in on our strides in the past year.
To summarize, in 2012:
•Jayco recycled more than 6,500 tons of wood, 2,100 tons of scrap metal, and 1,100 tons of cardboard and paper.
•We conserved:
•Enough electricity to power 1,500 homes for an entire year.
•Enough gas for Americans to drive more than 750,000 miles.
•Enough water to meet the daily fresh water needs of more than 104,000 Americans.
•And enough landfill airspace to meet the annual disposal needs of more than 40,000 people.
•And finally, our efforts saved more than 50,000 mature trees.
We plan to aggressively move forward with our EcoAdvantage program, and we hope you come along for the ride!

| Tiffin Introduces 2013 Models |
RED BAY, Alabama – Tiffin Motorhomes has introduced its 2013 models, which includes stylish new looks for the Allegro and Allegro RED brands.
Tiffin, one of the nation's leading manufacturers of Class A motorhomes, displayed its new models at dealer meetings this month to positive reviews.
"These are the best Tiffin products that I've seen to date," said Jerry Williamson, Tiffin's National Sales Manager. "We believe our 2013 models are better than ever as we continue to respond to the requests of our customers. Every time we make changes to our motorhomes, we listen to our customers and this year is no exception.
"Tiffin Motorhomes continues to offer the best value for the money in the Class A market."
The Allegro brand is Tiffin's flagship product. This year's models include all new front and rear cap designs for both the Allegro and the Allegro RED. The RED also features a contemporary new dash, as well as an option for an exterior TV. Both the Allegro and Allegro RED have an enhanced interior appearance with Halo leather furniture options, including an option in the RED for a freestanding computer dinette with a Euro recliner. They also feature sideview mirrors with built-in rearview cameras.
"The Allegro and Allegro RED each have whole new facelifts for an overall crisper and cleaner appearance, which is the trend in the automotive industry," said General Manager Tim Tiffin. "We're excited about the improvements and new features we've added to all of our brands for 2013. We always try to exceed the expectations of our customers and will continue to stand behind them."
The Allegro Breeze, the most compact Class A diesel-pusher motorhome ever produced, also has been improved for 2013 with changes to both the 28- and 32-foot floor plans. The changes include a one-piece, fiberglass composite slide-out that minimizes the outline of the slide-out box. The Allegro Breeze also features the new MaxxForce 7 engine from Navistar with added horsepower.
Tiffin's Phaeton has ranked as the top diesel seller in the U.S. for the past six years. Changes for the 2013 Phaeton include a larger front overhead TV, a residential refrigerator that includes ice and water in the door and a home theater system in the bedroom.
The Allegro Bus is another one of the top-selling diesel pushers on the market, with floor plans ranging from 36- to 43-foot. Changes for 2013 include a new decorative tile floor and an enhanced countertop with a new backsplash and splash guard. Tiffin also plans to introduce a 45-foot floor plan later this year.
"The Allegro Bus offers a package of exciting new interior features, including Villa furniture and an integrated kitchen sink," Williamson said. "The overall interior of the Allegro Bus has been upgraded and pushed to another level."
Tiffin also manufactures the Zephyr, its top-of-the-line model. The 2013 Zephyr was introduced earlier this year and features a new 500 horsepower Cummins engine, among other changes.
Tiffin, a privately-held company, is celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2012. Bob Tiffin founded the company in Red Bay in 1972 and continues today as its CEO and president. The company earned its 8th consecutive Quality Circle Award in 2011 from the Recreational Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA). The award is based on a survey of dealer satisfaction for design, reliability, quality, value and competitive pricing.
