COBURG, Ore., Nov. 21, 2006 -- Monaco Coach Corporation , one of the nation's leading manufacturers of recreational vehicles, will receive the prestigious and highly coveted 2006 Quality Circle Award from the Recreation Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA), in a special ceremony at the 44th Annual National RV Trade Show in Louisville, Ky., on November 27, 2006.

Monaco Coach Corporation is one of only four manufacturers to be awarded this honor that recognizes top performing manufacturers according to RVDA's annual Dealer Satisfaction Index (DSI) survey.

"These RV manufacturers demonstrate consistently high performance in the opinion of their dealers," said RVDA Chairman of the Board Jim Shields of Pan-Pacific RV Centers in French Camp, Calif.

RV dealers use the DSI to confidentially rate their manufacturers' performance in four major categories: sales support, product competitiveness, service/warranty/support and management.

"We are extremely pleased to receive this honor, as it comes directly from our dealer partners over a wide spectrum of performance categories," said Monaco Coach Corporation CEO and Chairman Kay Toolson. "We are very proud of all our employees for making this recognition possible. Looking ahead to 2007, we will continue to strive to deliver this outstanding level of service and quality products, and strengthen the partnership with our dealers through continued improvement in all areas of the Company."
