When a new travel trailer hits the scene, the brand behind it typically says something. Well, this time around, no one’s heard a dang thing; only a select few have said anything. The brand behind today’s compact and mysterious RVing solutions on the road is none other than Coachmen RV, according to a report by AutoEvolution.com.

About a month ago, we covered a travel trailer from Coachmen’s lineup. The Remote 19R was that unit, the largest of the class. However, while we were busy looking at the largest Remote, Coachmen added an all-new floorplan to their production line: the 14R, which is officially the smallest of the campers from this family.

Until the appearance of the 14R, it was the 15R that was considered the smallest of the Remote series. However, the 14R comes in with a length of just under 18 ft, shorter than the 15R, and it weighs 2,806 lbs (1,273 kg) dry, over 100 lbs lighter than the 15R. This means that a wider range of vehicles is suitable for towing this one behind them.

EDITOR’S NOTE: The following is an excerpt of a regular feature from Huntington Private Bank. On a regular basis, Huntington officials publish a “The Three Things We Learned This Week” blog post on its website, with commentary by Huntington‘s Chief Investment Officer, John Augustine.

1. The second quarter was constructive for long-term investors. Over the last three months, the S&P 500 was higher in price by 10.57% and closed at a new record high of 6,204.95. This is impressive given the angst about the economy, Israel/Iran and the tariffs. In addition, the Bloomberg Barclays Govt/Credit Intermediate Bond Index gained 0.73% in price. This was a very constructive quarter for long-term investors that remained calm during the ‘policy driven volatility” that was evident in the month of April.
2. U.S. economic reports are mixed this week, but employment seems solid. The weak economic reports this week consisted of construction and exports. However, there were three employment reports this week (Monthly Employment Report, JOLTS Job Survey, Weekly Initial Jobless Claims) that were all better than expected. In other words, employers are likely to still have difficulty finding workers where needed, while employees are still in-demand.
3. Trade Talk is coming back in a positive way. So far, there have been two cabinet secretaries, Lutnick and Bessent, that have opined on the potential to extend the April 9 deadline for trade agreements with a long list of countries. In addition, there are headlines around other countries (China, EU, Japan) with trade deals as a work in progress. This helps calm markets and allows stocks to move to new closing highs. More to come on this in the upcoming weeks.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Monday set a 25% tax on goods imported from Japan and South Korea, as well as new tariff rates on a dozen other nations that would go into effect on Aug. 1, according to an Associated Press report.

Trump provided notice by posting letters on Truth Social that were addressed to the leaders of the various countries. The letters warned them to not retaliate by increasing their own import taxes, or else the Trump administration would further increase tariffs.

“If for any reason you decide to raise your Tariffs, then, whatever the number you choose to raise them by, will be added onto the 25% that we charge,” Trump wrote in the letters to Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba and South Korean President Lee Jae Myung.

The letters were not the final word from Trump on tariffs, so much as another episode in a global economic drama in which he has placed himself at the center. His moves have raised fears that economic growth would slow to a trickle, if not make the U.S. and other nations more vulnerable to a recession. But Trump is confident that tariffs are necessary to bring back domestic manufacturing and fund the tax cuts he signed into law last Friday.

Editor’s Note: The following information was provided Elenor Hamm, president of the RV Dealers Association of Canada (RVDA).

“We are thrilled to announce a significant victory for our industry and a direct result of our collective advocacy efforts,” Hamm stated.

“The Government of Canada has officially granted remission of the surtaxes on motorhomes imported from the United States under the United States Surtax Order (Motor Vehicles 2025). This is a monumental win that will provide immediate financial relief and stability for dealerships across Canada.

“This achievement would not have been possible without your support, engagement, and the unified voice we presented to federal officials. Thank you for your commitment.

“Effective on June 26, 2025, surtaxes paid or payable on specific categories of motorhomes are eligible for remission. This applies to the following tariff classification numbers, covering new and used gas and diesel motorhomes:

• 8703.23.00.10 (Motorhomes)
• 8703.24.00.21 (New Gas Motorhomes)
• 8703.24.00.22 (Used Gas Motorhomes)
• 8703.33.00.21 (New Diesel Motorhomes)
• 8703.33.00.22 (Used Diesel Motorhomes)

“We strongly recommend that you or your customs broker review all recent motorhome importations to ensure you claim all eligible relief. For detailed instructions on completing the CAD, please refer to CBSA’s Memorandum D17-1-10,” Hamm stated

How to Claim Relief from the Surtax

• 1. For New Imports (At Time of Import): To obtain relief from the surtax when importing new commercial goods, you must enter a specific special authorization code in the “Special Authority OIC” field on the Commercial Accounting Declaration (CAD) Special Authorization Code: 25-0466 (This code is to be used for motor vehicles referred to in Schedule 5 of the Order, which includes the motorhome classifications listed above.)
• 2. For Past Imports (Corrections & Adjustments): If you have already paid the surtax on goods that now qualify for remission, you can apply for a refund.
• Corrections (before CAD payment due date): You may submit a correction via the Canadian Customs Reporting System (CCRS) or EDI/API using the special authorization code 25-0466N and reason code R5-00-COT.
• Adjustments (after CAD payment due date): You can submit an adjustment to receive a refund of surtax already paid. The reason code for this is R2-74-1-GR-53.

“Should you have any immediate questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.We strongly recommend that you or your customs broker review all recent motorhome importations to ensure you claim all eligible relief. For detailed instructions on completing the CAD, please refer to CBSA’s Memorandum D17-1-10.

“This is a testament to what we can accomplish when we work together. The RVDA of Canada will continue to advocate on your behalf to ensure a fair and prosperous business environment for the entire Canadian RV industry,” Hamm concluded.
