Each week there is far more news from the RV industry and lifestyle than we have time to cover. To make up for that, we offer a weekly roundup of the most interesting and important stories that you may have missed. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Jayco Holds 4th Annual RV Day for Boys & Girls Club: Last week, Jayco, along with parent company Thor, held the 4th annual Boys & Girls Club RV Day in Middlebury, Indiana.

  • AI Chatbot Campy is Here to Help You Plan Your Next RV Trip: Artificial Intelligence continues to proliferate every aspect of our lives, including helping plan your next RV trip.

  • Thor Launches Trip Calculator to Help Estimate Costs of Travel: Let’s face it, travel is expensive these days, so it’s always nice to get a little help with planning and budgeting. To assist with that process, Thor has created a Trip Calculator to help us decide whether we should drive, fly, or travel by RV. Simply answer a few questions, and the calculator will show you the cost of each option. Take it for a test run here.
  • Fleetwood to Expand into Class B and C Models: Upscale RV manufacturer Fleetwood—and subsidiary brands Holiday Rambler and American Coach—will celebrate its 75th anniversary in 2025. To commemorate the occasion, the company has announced that it will launch Class B and C motorhomes. Learn more about this exciting development here.
  • Spot2Nite Partners with Camping World and Good Sam: Camping World subsidiary Good Sam is teaming up with Spot2Nite to provide RVers with more options for finding and booking campsites in real time.
