Results from the RV Industry Association’s (RVIA) June 2023 survey of manufacturers found that total RV shipments ended the month with 24,095 units, a decrease of 46.4 percent compared to the 44,942 units shipped in June 2022. Halfway through 2023, RV shipments are down 49.2 percent with 164,830 units.

“RVing has remained a preferred way to travel for more than 44 million Americans planning RV trips this summer,” said RVIA’s President and CEO Craig Kirby. “Our latest RV shipment forecast shows that shipments should begin to recover later this year and into 2024 as consumer confidence increases and the ongoing interest in camping and RVing turns into increased RV sales.”

Towable RVs, led by conventional travel trailers, ended the month down 48.3 percent from last June with 20,670 shipments. Motorhomes finished the month down 30.8 percent compared to the same month last year with 3,425 units.

Park Model RVs finished June up 7.7 percent compared to the same month last year, with 391 wholesale shipments.
