FOREST CITY – Winnebago Industries has completed the first Travato from the new Lake Mills assembly facility, the company announced Monday.

As announced in November 2013, Winnebago expanded manufacturing for the Company’s Winnebago Touring Coach (Class B) motorhomes to a new Lake Mills Assembly Facility. The Company celebrated the completion of the first Travato rolling off the line today.

“Our employees have done a great job; they’ve worked hard to install new equipment, set up the production floor and train new staff,” said Chairman, CEO and President Randy Potts. “It’s a real celebration to see the first Travato motorhome roll off the line and the timing for ramping up this production couldn’t be better as we prepare for the busy spring and summer selling season.”

The 20-foot-long TravatoTM is the newest Class B motorhome to join the Winnebago Touring Coach lineup.

Winnebago announced late last year that it and the city of Lake Mills came to an agreement on a 5-year lease of the 100,000-square-foot plant formerly owned and operated by Cummins Filtration. The Lake Mills facility will be used for the production of Winnebago’s Class B motorhomes.

Nobody there could pass the pee test.

@anonymous-Good point. But maybe if we had some decent jobs we wouldn’t have as many reject drugers in town. And of course the real drug haven Clear Lake.
