The presidential Monaco coach was officially designated 'RV ONE' and was
used by the president, members of the first family and other dignitaries at
Wednesday's "A Celebration of Freedom" kick-off event at the Ellipse and
during several of Thursday's inaugural balls.
"Monaco Coach is honored that the president had the opportunity to enjoy
one of our motorhomes as his private accommodations during the 55th
Presidential Inauguration," said Craig Wanichek, Director of Corporate
Communications for Monaco Coach Corporation.
The sporty red and maroon Monaco Signature motorhome that was used by the
president is equipped with collision avoidance radar, satellite
communications, plasma TVs, four 'slide-outs' which are rooms that extend
outward to expand the interior, plus numerous other luxuries that are more
often associated with high-end custom homes.
A second luxury motorhome, a silver Safari Cheetah, also provided by
Monaco Coach for the inauguration, was used during the "A Celebration of
Freedom" event as a holding room for various dignitaries and entertainers,
including The Temptations and Patti LaBelle.
Headquartered in Coburg, Oregon, with additional manufacturing facilities
in Central Oregon and Indiana, Monaco Coach Corporation is one of the nation's
leading manufacturers of recreational vehicles. The company offers entry-
level priced towable RVs up to custom made luxury recreational vehicle models
