Growth of recreational vehicles expands to millions
Babson notes RVs are a fast growing industry with 3.2 million campers in 1970 and projections to 8-10 million by 1980. Trends include longer vacations, rising personal spending, population growth, more campgrounds, and rising costs of other leisure options. Four main RV types priced from $300 to over $20,000 led by travel trailers. Leading manufacturers include Winnebago and Travco among others.
