Winnebago Name to be revived in Australia

Winnebago is more a generic description than a brand name for Class A Motorhomes, bit like Hoovering means vacuum cleaning in the US.
AVIDA is giving the the "Winnebago'description to its current Esperance Premium Motorhome and LongReach Class C. In 2015 they are introducing I believe two 35-40ft Class A's. The Rider that these "Winnebagos" have nothing to do with the US company.

    nice looking RV

    your a little mixed up on that one
    i never ever heard anyone say Hovering for running the vacuum

    how ever we do say Xerox when we mean copying machine
    Xerox a major world company did become a generic term for copying machine or copying process, like in "i'm going to go xerox these contracts"

    how ever even that has fallen by the wayside and we just mainly say "copy" or "scan"
