Workhorse & Vortec 8.1

What was the last year that Winnebago had a Workhorse and Vortec 8.1 engine?

Thanks,

Ron

There were also a couple 2010 or 11 Adventurers with the Cummins ISB in its place. Those were uncertain times. I miss the 8.1. Although you can still get its cousins (454/502 etc) in crate engine form.

Thanks for the replies, looks like 2010 might have been the last year for the vortec 8.1 Aventurer.
