 In 2011, RV shipments are expected to increase 8.6 percent from 2010, according to a forecast by RV industry analyst and director of consumer surveys at the University of Michigan, Dr. Richard Curtin.
That's good news for manufacturers. As gas prices continue to rise, Americans are looking to RVs to provide luxurious and cost-effective vacations without having to spend excess cash on lodging and rental cars.
For those looking to purchase their first used Class B motorhome, it is important to know the difference between a Class B RV and a van conversion. In truth, a Class B motorhome is a customized panel truck. It often holds up to four people and ranks as one of the most maneuverable and economical of all RVs.
The difference between a Class B RV and a van conversion lies in the amenities provided in the vehicle. In a van conversion, the interior has been remodeled to provide services for consumers, however they typically lack bathrooms and kitchens.
Class B RVs provide both of those amenities while also offering plenty of headroom for passengers. The customized panel trucks are usually designed to create manageable living space for several travelers, and are a great purchase for a first-time RV owner.
