The Hershey RV Show wrapped with attendance down about 5%, but dealers and manufacturers reported surprisingly strong sales and a positive mood, with demand shifting more toward towables. Major RV debuts included the Brinkley Model R fifth wheel, the return of DRV Mobile Suites, Forest River’s Lucent and Sommar Class B vans and Coachmen Teleos travel trailer, Pleasure-Way’s first travel trailer (Everbound), Winnebago’s compact Elora/Resa Class C, and the ultra-luxury Cornerstone Series 6 diesel pusher; Liquified RV also rebranded as Prime RV and launched the Gravity sewer hose. GM has announced upgraded 2027 half-ton engines and trailering tech, plus teased an 8.3L Duramax “Mongoose” for HD trucks. The FTC clarified all-in price advertising rules for required dealer fees and discounts, Thor discussed affordability and flat 2027 expectations, and fuel prices continued rising. ​ @rvgearandfar : https://www.youtube.com/@rvgearandfar ****************************** Connect with RV Miles:  RV Miles Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rvmiles Shop the RV Miles Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/rvmiles RV Miles Mailing List: https://rvmiles.com/mailinglist Mile Marker Membership: https://rvmiles.com/milemarkers 00:00 Hershey Show Highlights 00:42 Sales Mood Check 03:15 Sponsor Message 04:00 Biggest RV Debuts 09:53 Liquified Rebrand 10:32 Mile Markers 11:10 GM Half Ton Upgrades 14:16 Mongoose Duramax Tease 15:31 FTC Pricing Rules 18:07 Thor Affordability Focus 19:37 Fuel Price Surge 20:11 Wrap Up and Thanks
