Although RVs have been on the market for decades, they are suddenly seeing an increase in sales. In the wake of the global COVID-19 pandemic, many turn to RVs as a safe, reliable, and convenient transportation means for vacation.

RV Sales Surge

For consumers and RV manufacturers, the sudden surge in demand for RVs is a win-win situation. RV manufacturers are providing Americans with the freedom they’re looking for to take safe road trips. The RV Industry Association reports that about 46 million Americans are expected to take road trips in the coming year with the surge in popularity for recreational vehicles.

A Safer Way to Travel in These Times

As summer winds down and states start to ease their lockdown restrictions, Americans say that they consider RV travel one of the safest and reliable options for planning a trip instead of relying on air travel or worrying about canceling a hotel reservation. Additionally, people view traveling in their RV as a great way to get out and see the country’s beautiful sights while still keeping a safe social distance from others. Even though large gatherings with non-family members are still discouraged, traveling with family, and household members in an RV is still perfectly acceptable. While RV sales have surged during the COVID-19 pandemic, the RV Industry Association expects RV sales to continue to stay strong in the future as people discover that RV travel is a better alternative to other types of vacations, especially for traveling families.
