A Glance at The Changing Trends in the RV Market Segment

Technological progress is rapidly invading every industrial segment today. The RV market segment is no exception, where the industry is experiencing a transition phase. This is the phase of experimentation and modification thereby leading to the emergence of changing trends in the entire RV industry. Gone are the days when RVs were considered luxurious commodities. Today, perspectives have changed making them commodities of comfort and even necessity for some!

Surveys conducted in some parts of the US and Canada show how RV sales have been on the rise since 1999. Around 7% of Canadian households own an RV.

Besides, RV travel is the best option to travel with your family and friends as it betters communication with our dear ones.

The average age of RV buyers varies from 34 to 55 years and is the one of the fast growing segments today.

For travelers in wheelchairs, some manufacturing companies design the rig that allows wheelchair entry through a rear power lift gate. RV travel has thus effectively tried to include travelers from all walks of life.

Seven US States (Michigan, Oregon, Louisiana, Tennessee, Washington, Florida and Texas) have adopted the 'RV Friendly' Yellow Circle symbol on the highway signage on the directions of the US Federal Highway Administration. This symbol is indicative of the camping and lodging facilities that would be made available to RVers at different spots. Such facilities make RV travel hassle free enjoyable.
