John Crean died yesterday. He was the founder of Fleetwood in 1950s and a pioneer in RV industry over the years.

An icon of the industry has passed on. I wonder if that also means the death of the Flounder, John's notion of the ideal motorhome, designed and built with/by his son.
 
No doubt the icon of the industry.  By the way, the Flounder (designed with his son-in-law) had a name change last year, now it's called the Siena and it's by CT Coach works.  I saw one at the Tampa show recently and got a flyer thing, GoSiena.com is their website.
 
What a GREAT set of plans for their RV (http://siena.servehttp.com/Siena/)

I think that's how all RVs should be shown - very clear and informative.
