Jones & Son Chassis conducts ride and drive evaluation of the new Tiffin 28’ “Breeze” coach. “It’s one of the funnest best handling” under 30 ft pusher motorhomes I have ever driven. I think it’s the “only” 28’pusher available in the market and Tiffin has done a real nice job with it."

Jones & Son Chassis, Inc., North America’s premier custom motorhome chassis designer has entered into an exclusive agreement with SSC Green Inc. of West Richland, Washington to integrate SSC Green’s All Electric Scalable Powertrain (AESP) to produce a hybrid motorhome chassis platform.
After a year of meeting with several companies and researching various entities in the EV drivetrain industry, “SSC Green’s AESP proved to be the only solution to meet the demanding specifications and capabilities of our motorhome chassis.”
Jones & Sons Chassis design specification requires a 500-mile range motorhome that must achieve 150 miles on battery pack, and then switch over to “hybrid mode” for an additional 350 miles. During hybrid mode the onboard generator will charge the battery pack. SSC Green’s controller will easily charge the battery pack overnight with 50amp/220 volt standard camp ground electrical service. Jones believes SSC Green is the solution for supplying cost effective, reliable hybrid powertrain technology for the motorhome market.
SSC Green is a subsidiary of Shelby SuperCars the producer of the Ultimate Aero, the “World’s Fastest Production Car”. With a track-record for excellence and innovation of ground breaking technology SSC Green’s AESP presents a real alternative to motorhomes powered exclusively by petroleum based fuel.

For 2008 we have been “quietly” busy designing and engineering a new generation of motorhome chassis for the rv market. These chassis will represent a shift in technology that helps the body builder build a higher quality coach more efficiently. In addition this new chassis technology helps the folks who service the chassis have even better access to diagnose and replace parts faster…this means one thing ,,,getting customers on the road faster which makes happy customers.
In addition to the above we have also been working on chassis designs and technology that this year will offer better fuel economy, crisper steering and even more responsive handling. Yes 2009 will be a very exciting year for our customers !
