Because you’re no stranger to motorhomes, a coach has to be truly
outstanding to favorably impress you. That’s Encore. We crafted every
inch of the interior to enrich your experience, rewarding you with
amenities and grandeur to satisfy your desires in a motorhome.
Whether it’s the leather Euro chair with ottoman, the residential
Camel Back sofa or the ceramic tile floor and sculpted carpets,
Encore moves you in the right direction. Discover the joy Encore
provides by taking a walk-through and a test drive.
With a choice of five bold, attention-getting full-paint exteriors,
Encore is sure to gain admiring glances wherever you travel.
But below the great looks lay some serious engineering. Like
heavy-duty baggage doors with two-stage struts for easy access.
The soft, luxurious, two-toneultra-leather/suede captain’schairs have six-way powercontrols that allow you tocustomize the settings toyour liking. With your protec-tion in mind, the three-pointsafety harness is integratedinto the seat for improvedsafety and comfort.

Nothing improves your day like a pleasant surprise. Buying a coach
ticket and getting bumped up to first class. Ordering dinner and
receiving dessert on the house. Encore is like that. It moves you
up to a higher level of style, features and convenience than other
coaches in its class. Like a deep, 38-inch living room slide-out
for oodles of living space. A truly flat bedroom floor that provides
full headroom all the way around the bed. An oversized passenger
seat with power foot rest. The list goes on. Fact is, Encore gives
you two great options: Bragging to your friends about your wise
investment or going no further than a knowing smile when they
ask how much you paid.

Encore’s flat-floor bedroom is an industry first. It provides up to 10 inchesof additional headroom around the bed.So you can enjoy easier access to thewardrobe—and no stubbed toes orhead bumping the ceiling.
Sometimes the best way to communicate is to leave people speechless —
jaws dropped in total amazement. Encore is all too willing to comply.
That’s because we gave it features and a look to surpass all other coaches
in its class. No surprise there. We’re the only coach manufacturer focused
entirely on building diesel motorhomes. So even if you fail to gain kudos
from your golf game, you’re sure to get people’s attention with your Encore.L E A V E T H E M S P E E C H L E S S

To enjoy outdoor adventures on your own terms, you need
a motorhome that can meet — or exceed — the challenges
of the open road and the campsite. Encore does.
Sturdy foundation
Encore rides on the Thoroughbred™ Performance Platform,
developed by Sportscoach® and Freightliner.™ The platform
starts on a laser-leveled stage to ensure a true and level surface
for a much more precisely assembled coach. Plus all steelwork
has a weather-resistant finish. This results in the best perform-
ance and durability in its class.
Superior construction
We go the extra mile to make sure each coach is sturdy and
dependable. Cabinets are mounted into steel backers instead of
paneling. Each windshield is installed with automotive adhesive
and sealant. Plus, electrical wires are grouped in a color coded
automotive wiring harness for safety, and ease of service.
Rigorous testing
All water, gas and electric lines are multiple tested well beyond
Recreation Vehicle Industry Association code requirements.
In addition, each coach undergoes a 57-point inspection, plus
extensive rain booth and road testing to make sure your coach
is ready for all of your adventures.
