NASHVILLE, Tenn. – With a sneak preview of its 2026 model year motorhomes – including special edition off-road adventure vans – the 2025 Tiffin Motorhomes Dealer Meeting got underway Thursday at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville, Tenn.
The first day also featured some words of welcome from Leigh Tiffin, president of the Red Bay, Ala.-based motorhome builder, who thanked the many dealers who were in attendance for taking time out of their busy schedules to travel to Nashville.
Leigh Tiffin will go into greater detail on the new model year motorhomes and the company in general during his morning presentation today. He will be followed by a panel discussion featuring THOR Industries President Bob Martin and Bob Tiffin, CEO of Tiffin Motorhomes. Other speakers include Van Tiffin and Trent Tiffin, who serves as the company’s vice president of sales, as well as Ron Insana, an analyst and commentator for CNBC.
Dealers inspect the Open trail 25 AO, an adventure van built by Tiffin Motorhomes in partnership with Owl Vans.
The Open Trail Class C adventure vans, built in partnership with Owl Vans, a nationwide upfitter of Class B motorhomes, were front and center in the display area that features no less than 33 of Tiffin-branded Class A, Super C, Class C and Class B units.
Two dealer representatives, Bernie Culliton of Campers Inn RV and Larry McNamara of Giant Recreation World, were among the first to check out the units.
“I think it was made for the zombie apocalypse,” said McNamara, who serves as the president CEO of the dealership’s three Florida locations. “It’s bad to the bone, let me tell you. I haven’t gotten the spiel yet – and they’re doing that outside as we speak – but it’s an awesome-looking unit.”
For his part, Culliton, Campers Inn RV’s brand ambassador, said he was most looking forward to “seeing all the new stuff.”
“I really wanted to get over here and take a look at all this stuff, but I had no idea what I was going to see, and now I’m just completely surprised as to the immensity of this display and the immensity of the changes,” he told RVBusiness. “In this coach that we’re in here, the Open Trail, is just outstanding. I just spent 20 minutes with the Owl rep who helped design the exterior of this coach, and, whoa, there’s so much to learn.”
Tiffin officials said the Open Trail “combines the efficiency of an adventure van with the added capacity of a Class C coach.” Built on the Mercedes Benz 3500XD Dual Wheel AWD Cutaway Chassis and equipped with the SumoSpringsRide Assist System, the 25 AO model checks in at 25 feet, 6 inches long with a GVWR of 11,030 pounds and 5,000-pound hitch rating.
Other features include: rear twin beds that convert to a king-size bed; 15,000-Btu air conditioner with heat pump; 2,000-watt pure sine wave inverter; Truma AquaGo Comfort Plus instant water heater; Spyder Controls multiplex system with app integration; 4-kilowatt Flex Power dual fuel generator; Girard power awnings; hardwood cabinetry; private wet bath; and a sleeper sofa or optional L-shaped lounge.
In both sessions, Sharonne Lee, vice president of education and operations for the RV Technical Institute (RVTI), explained the new Ground Monitor Interrupter (GMI) requirements going into effect in 2026. Also, Bonnie Mayfield, an attorney at the Dykema law firm, spoke on Michigan’s new Earned Sick Time Act (ESTA). In addition, MARVAC President and CEO John Lindley updated participants on the state’s new legislature and regulatory landscape.
When the 2026 Edition of the National Electric Code (NEC) is published later this year, it will finalize the requirement and electrical evolution of protecting RV owners and users from the occurrences known as “hot skin,” which Lee said is a condition that refers to when any metal item, including an RV’s metal exterior, becomes electrified, raising the risk of shock or fire.
Beginning Jan. 1, 2026, all new RVs manufactured with 30A or 50A electrical service will be required to have installed a Ground Monitor Interrupter (GMI), which is a loss-of-ground device. Before electrical current can pass into the RV, a GMI will check the receptacle for a proper ground connection. During use, the GMI will also monitor the ground connection to the RV and, if lost, will disconnect the power to the RV.
For her part, Mayfield explained the myriad nuances of the Earned Sick Time Act (ESTA), which details how an employee can earn paid sick time during. While the ESTA goes into great detail, it’s expected that more answers will emerge as the legislation is implemented in the field.
Lindley said the two Regional Summits are another opportunity for the association to provide a real-time benefit to RV dealers and campground owner/operators in the Great Lakes State.
“These events provide a great opportunity for colleagues to get together with colleagues,” he said. “Those are truly extraordinarily valuable conversations that members of the association have with each other that we’re able to facilitate.”
GREENVILLE, N.C. – In his latest interview, the CEO of Camping World is reiterating his stance that he will not take down the huge flag at his location at the corner of Evans Street and Red Banks Road while acknowledging the controversy has had an impact on his business in Greenville, according to a report by WITN, citing an interview by WTIB in which Marcus Lemonis announced he has closed one of the company’s two Greenville locations. (See video above; the interview starts at the 1:07:00 mark.)
The city says the American flag and flagpole it is flying on, violate city code due to their size.
Marcus Lemonis was on Inner Banks Media radio station WTIB Tuesday morning where he told Henry Hinton on Talk of the Town that he closed one of his two Greenville locations on Friday. He said that employees at the Forest River RV location on Greenville Boulevard were told they were closing due to the controversy created by the council.
“We think the ordinance is wrong,” said Lemonis. “I think it’s also wrong council members have been working very actively to disparage my business and on Friday I had to consolidate modification of 2 dealerships in town. The main one that you’re referring to and another one of Greenville – and we had to close that – our business which has been unfortunately impacted uniquely in Greenville, N.C.”
ELKHART, Ind. – A crew from CBS News was in the RV Capitol of the World this morning (April 18) to film a segment on how the RV industry is faring given the current economic climate.

Houston-based CBS Correspondent Janet Shamlian interviewed Mary Pouliot, the chair of the RV Industry Association (RVIA) and Executive Vice President of the Americas for Thetford, at the RV/MH Hall of Fame. Following that, Shamlian and her crew traveled to the corporate headquarters of Lippert Components Inc., where she interviewed CEO Jason Lippert.
Shamlian questioned Pouiliot and Lippert about whether lackluster consumer confidence was a concern for the industry and how much the tariff-fueled trade war was impacting the industry. Both Pouiliot and Lippert spoke how the RV industry is typically a bellwether for the greater economy and everyone is simply looking for some degree of certainty regarding the tariffs. They mentioned the long-term sustained growth of the RV lifestyle, and how camping and RVing has long been a popular vacation option for Amercians as it is affordable, family-oriented and an opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors.
“It was a good experience,” Pouliot said of the CBS interviews, both of which were arranged by RVIA. “It gave us an opportunity to talk about the industry and our sustained growth. Yes, there are concerns, but the RV industry has always weathered the storm.”
Producers said the segment is expected to be broadcast as early as next week, potentially as an “Eye on America” feature.
HENDERSON, Nev. – As the Priority RV Network (PRVN) Annual Conference culminates today at the M Resort & Casino – highlighted by a panel discussion with the three men leading the three largest RV manufacturers – the one topic permeating all conversations is the state of the market and how it might play out the rest of this year.
The market and all its complexities will certainly be one of the questions posed to THOR Industries Inc. President & CEO Bob Martin, Forest River Inc CEO Doug Gaeddert and Winnebago Industries President & CEO Michel Happe during their time on stage this morning.
Kyle Greer, left, of Impel, an AI-powered Customer Lifecycle Management platform, meets with dealer personnel.
But that is only one of the highlights of the week-long conference, in which the nation’s largest co-op of dealerships assemble to learn PRVN program updates as well as network with each other and the 50-plus vendor partners also on hand.
Among them was Chad Shepard, owner of Pete’s RV Center, who only recently joined PRVN.
“Yeah, we’re brand new to Priority Group. It’s been a long time coming and we’re super excited,” he told RVBusiness. “A lot of the dealers are in our great business are friends of ours already, so it’s a really good time to catch up and see all the improvements that they’ve made to give us a competitive advantage in the market. It’s something we’ve been trying our hardest to get into, and the way the stars align this year, we were able to get four of our eight stores in, so super exciting on that.”
But, again, the quiet and not-so-quiet conversations were dominated by the state of the market – especially how the flurry of tariffs is undermining consumer confidence. Dealers seemed to have a mixed bag of market activity, but none were turning cartwheels.
It was much the same report from the vendor partners, including the following three who spoke with RVBusiness about their thoughts on the market and how their respective companies are coping with the times as they are.

Mark Boessler, Senior Vice President of Lippert Components Aftermarket
So, Q1 quite frankly was really favorable. And we led with a lot of new products to market in key categories: our air conditioning, towing, and safety groups. So, honestly, the show season was really positive, and dealer receptiveness was positive as well. So, I’d say the start of the year proved to be fortuitous for us.
Lippert’s leadership is so focused on new product development and what’s in the pipeline. And many of those products never come to market because of market changes or the price points maybe weren’t finalized or ready to be in the market. But new product development is really a big thing for us, obviously, as we try to continue expanding our core lines. And I would say that we’re pretty invested into it.
As far as the rest of the year, I think it’s going to be a lot of waves. I think, ultimately, it’s the sooner we could put to bed what a ‘new norm’ is – and find consistency in that norm – I think everybody will be able to manage more consistently in where do products finally land in pricing. A retail customer wants consistency, the dealer wants consistency, distribution wants consistency, and we want consistency. So, as soon as the (tariff) deals are done, we’re going to have really good consistency.
Rich Elliott
Rich Elliott, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Progress Manufacturing
I hear a lot of different things and I feel like it changes daily, right? Costs are going up, but sales are good or sales aren’t goo. And it’s different in different parts of the country.
But we’re still optimistic on how the season’s going to shake out. We did what we’re calling a ‘price revolution’ in January, where we went down in price – kind of crazy in the face of potential tariffs. But we did that, and our sales have gone way up. So, we’re happy with how the year started out for us personally, but as we get into the season now we need the retail sales to really come and help all of us, especially the dealers.
(On the impact of tariffs) I get that question a lot. We’re an American-made company, so Equal-i-zer’s 100% American made. Even with the price change, we didn’t change how or where we were doing this price revolution, we just gave a lower price. But tariffs, how they impact us is that we still see it’s a supply and demand game, right? So, we are not tied into a lot in China. Our e2s hitches do come from Taiwan, so there’s a smaller impact versus a Chinese-made hitch.
But with Equal-i-zer, what we found is the steel infrastructure here in the States is not necessarily ready for everybody to come back and do everything here like President Trump might want it to be, so then it becomes a supply-and-demand game. Simple economics, right? So, if there’s greater demand, the price goes up. Our steel hasn’t gone up significantly here domestically yet, but we anticipate that it likely will. And I’m not blaming the steel companies. I’d probably do the same thing if I was sitting in their shoes. But our aluminum’s already been hit here domestically. Our domestic aluminum that goes into our Flash Ball mounts is already up 30%. So that puts us in a situation to try to figure out how to best handle that.

Ben Johnson, Director of Sales, Meyer Distributing
Meyer is strong right now. Being a private, family-owned company is probably the best position for any company to be in right now. We feel like that matches the dealership aspect more than anything out there. Clearly, there’s (dealer) acquisitions happening – some of the larger groups can do it – and we are supporting those acquisitions. But we love servicing the brick-and-mortar mom-and-pop private family-owned dealerships.
Meyer has continued to invest heavily in hub-and-spoke model distribution. So, being able to house product across our 11 distribution centers across the country, and adding more and more crossdock locations across the country to service more than 80% of the U.S. and Canadian population next day with our delivery fleet. That recipe has proven itself for decades now and still continues to show us some growth this year.
I mean, partnership with the dealer is far and beyond the source of where success comes from. When it comes to anything that may happen – whether you might not get your part on time like we originally promised, or if you just need support on a return to get stuff taken care of –we have a relationship with the vendor so we are there to help with any of those circumstances.
EDITOR’S NOTE: In light of the sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs announced last week by President Trump – and the resulting retaliatory tariffs that have further escalated the current trade war – RVBusiness would like to know to what effect the RV industry feels it will be impacted.
Newmar certainly caught the attention of its dealer base – if not the industry at large – with this week’s introduction during its dealer show held at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Colo., of the Freedom Aire Compact C motorhome, the company’s first foray beyond its current Class A and Super C offerings.
Built on a Mercedes-Benz 4500 chassis, the Freedom Aire debuts with two floorplans – a twin-bed model as well as the 2515 prototype on display, highlighted by a slideout on the driver’s side offering a king-size Murphy bed over a dinette. Every inch of the coach is optimized to enhance livability and offers six distinctive exterior finishes. The optional solar package includes roof-mounted panels as well as Newmar’s first-ever external and movable solar panel option, increasing solar capacity by up to three times. This advancement empowers owners to venture further off-grid with greater independence.
Following the Freedom Aire’s reveal, Newmar President Casey Tubman spoke with RVBusiness about what the new product and new segment means for the company, the Nappanee, Ind.-based subsidiary of Winnebago Industries.
RVBusiness: Casey, we’re standing here and looking at your brand new, all-new Freedom Aire motorhome, which you are calling a “Compact C.”
Tubman: That’s correct. Some people reference B-Plus, but there’s no such thing as that class. We call it a Compact C.
RVBusiness: Newmar is known as a manufacturer of Class A motorhomes and, more recently, Super C’s. So, what does this new product and new segment means for Newmar as a company?
Tubman: Newmar has a great brand name for 50-plus years now – even in the past when we were producing fifth-wheels. We eventually moved into diesels and we became known as a diesel brand or a Class A brand. And, while we’ve brought in Super C’s and dabbled our toe in the water a couple of years ago, this year, we said, “We want to become known as a luxury brand.” Doesn’t matter if it’s a Class A, Class B, Class C, Compact C – whatever it is. We eventually want to have an offering for everyone that wants a luxury Newmar experience, best quality in the industry, best craftsmanship, all those industry firsts that we talk about. You buy a Newmar, that’s what you get.
RVBusiness: So, Let’s talk about some of the highlights of the Freedom Aire. Your VP of Sales, Matt Ellinger, said it has “Diesel DNA.”
Tubman: I call it “Newmar DNA,” but he likes to say “Diesel DNA.”
RVBusiness: From the side-opening baggage doors in the basement storage, to the integrated rooftop awning, to the rear caps – the whole thing truly looks like a diesel pusher, but on a 25-foot Mercedes Benz 4500 Sprinter chassis.
Tubman: And on the inside, because of the limited space, we wanted to make sure we made the most of it. But having the Italian leather theater seats with the full power recline, adjustable headrest – things of that nature – make it super comfortable.
I was joking with my wife the other day. When you get in those seats, it’s business class versus a coach class. When you’re flying, it’s business class, you have a flip-out tray, it’s real nice, it’s heavy duty. The comfort is all there, and you can recline back and take a nap. We wanted to do things like that. It’s a 25-foot unit and we put a king-size bed in there. Unheard of.
But we know our customers, and again, one in five of our Newmar owners are talking about downsizing because they’re aging out. We want to keep them in the brand; they want to stay in the brand. I had many people come to us at our rallies asking, “When are you going to bring something?” Or, “Can I go into one of your sister brands and still stay a member of your club?” And we just wanted to bring this product so that they would have that.
Something else we pride ourselves with is our craftsmanship. A lot of times we’ll say the Amish craftsmanship of Nappanee, Indiana. This has wood cabinets, hard surface countertops. It’s again, Newmar inside. We didn’t want to compromise on what the customer is buying. We worked on different trade-offs in weight because that’s always the question on these. And again, we’re going to end up right around that 750-to-800 pounds of carrying capacity, which when you add two people and all their stuff for camping, that’s about what it takes. And again, I would say that’s if not the highest, it’s probably the second highest in the industry for this one.
RVBusiness: And, as you said earlier, while what we’re looking at is a prototype and changes should be expected, but this will be a 2026 model and you’re expecting to go into production with it sometime this summer?
Tubman: This is a 2026 production model. It will go to production over the summer and then we will ramp up as the summer goes and be full running in the fall. We have two floorplans right now that we’re working on. And again, multiple exteriors that you can see there, including an available Onyx package.
One other thing I should mention is, it’s a Compact C, but what you probably don’t realize is those walls are built like all our other walls, 16-inch on center, aluminum stud walls, fully insulated, again, fiberglass cap on the back, fiberglass cap on the front and integrated awnings, you mentioned that, but it really is the Newmar construction here that you’re seeing, which again, no one else does
Newmar VP Sales Matt Ellinger offers an overview of the Freedom Aire.
RVBusiness: The Sprinter chassis was intentional, obviously.
Tubman: We wanted the Mercedes chassis because it represents a brand similar to Newmar. And it was a perfect fit for us. The 4,500 gives us an extra thousand pounds of carrying capacity for that customer.
Again, special things like that bunk doesn’t have a nursing home curtain to cover you up when you’re sleeping. It’s a nice blind or shade as we have in our other units. That’s what you’ll find in there. And what people talk about is those bunks get high. We pump AC into that bunk area separately where a lot of people just pump it to the end of the run and point it that way. We ducted it into the actual cab.
What else? We made sure the shower, that bathroom, porcelain toilet, glass saying, it feels like a Newmar. And the shower is big enough for our engineering lead, JP LaPorte, who is 6-foot-5. And then we put (VP Marketing & Strategy) Ryan Buursrta, the 6-foot-4 guy, up in the bunk because we want to make sure it’s usable for these people.
RVBusiness: You sound pretty pumped.
Tubman: Yes, we’re very excited. This is the first of what we want to do, expanding our brand to more areas. We want people to know Newmar is a luxury brand and this is the way we do that. Again, it’s the first of many.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Newmar Corp. executives unveiled its 2026 model year lineup of Class A and Super C motorhomes, and at the same time said the company is poised to continue “Building on Our Legacy” – the event’s theme – through quality, customer experience and innovation.
President Casey Tubman said the Nappanee, Ind.-based, gas- and diesel-powered motorized manufacturer enjoyed market share gains in every segment the OEM has an entry, the Dutch Star was the No. 1 selling diesel motorhome for the third year in a row, and that Newmar will continue to keep its production pace in step with the retail market.
The company also on Tuesday premiered a redesigned King Aire and the all-new 600hp Summit Aire – its fourth Super C model – and was set to unveil another new product today.
“We want to be the best in quality without question,” Tubman said. “No one should be able to question it. It should be just known and you can see it.
“The second thing is, we want to be the best in customer service. And again, we’re already known for our customer service, so we’re proud of that, but we can always take it to the next level,” he continued.
2011 DAYTONA 500 champion Trevor Bayne, left, with Newmar VP Sales Matt Ellinger
“The third thing is product innovations,” Tubman added. “Newmar has been first to the industry with several things, and that’s something we pride ourselves on. So, as we go forward, how do we bring the first of something in the industry for market? We’re going to show you some of those again this week.”
Concluding this evening with an awards ceremony, Newmar is hosting its dealer partners at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Colo. The event includes presentations from Tubman, along with Executive Team members VP Sales Matt Ellinger, VP Engineering JP LaPorte, VP Marketing & Strategy Ryan Buurtstra and VP Customer Experience Simone Silva, who was to deliver her session this morning.
In addition, 2011 DAYTONA 500 champion Trevor Bayne, who serves as Driver Consultant for LEGACY MOTOR CLUB, shared how lessons learned on the race track can be applied to the business world. Bayne is a NASCAR veteran widely recognized for having been the youngest driver ever to win the DAYTONA 500 in the iconic No. 21 for Wood Brothers Racing and for his work as an analyst at FOX Sports.
NewmarVP Sales Matt Ellinger
In his presentation, Ellinger laid out many of the changes, upgrades and new floorplans to the 2026 model year lineup. Among those were:
Many new color, cabinetry and other interior decor and exterior graphic options.
Woven vinyl in slideout flooring, replacing carpeting.
Onyx package available on all models.
Artisan Series graphics on select models for truly one-of-a-kind coaches.
Victron components on all models.
Control system from American Technology Components, Elkhart, Ind.
A more subtle “Refined” décor option on the King Aire to complement the classic “Regal” selection.
Supreme Aire SE and the Supreme Aire XT are to be built on the Freightliner Cascadia chassis.
The Artisan Series deserves additional mention, as it “reflects the overwhelming desire to own a truly customizable coach that reflects our customer’s unique tastes, and that cannot be duplicated,” said Ellinger. “Not only can customers select this option, but dealers can as well. They can select from an exclusive catalog of Artisan series graphics that will be forever archived. Making this coach truly one of one.”
“If you have a motorized mentality, we want you to lean into Newmar today and this week. We’re a proven winner in this space. And guess what? We’re only going to get better,” Ellinger concluded.
Newmar VP Marketing & Strategy Ryan Buurtstra
For his part, Buurstra shared some target audience research conducted with IPSOS – the same agency that produced the recent Go RVing RV Owner Demographic Study – that is informing many of Newmar’s decisions going forward, one of those being people who ascribe to “Stealth Wealth,” which means they prefer understated luxury. The study also helped to identify the consumer profile that is within the OEM’s wheelhouse, but also pinpointed other segments that represent growth opportunities.
“Newmar will continue to lead in our current strongholds. That’s not going to change. But we are also focused on expanding into new customers and new segments while remaining true to the Newmar brand,” Buurstra said.
LaPorte used his presentation to introduce himself – he succeeded the late Paul White, who died unexpectedly last year – as well as share his excitement for the future of Newmar
Newmar VP Engineering JP LaPorte
“For a company to be great, there’s two fundamental pillars that have to exist,” he said. “You have to have great product and you have to have a great brand. Newmar has both. That is the No. 1 thing that attracted me and made me want to come here. The No. 2 thing is the amount of just unbridled opportunity that’s out there for the product. If you look at the technologies that are out there in the different spaces, we just have a huge growth opportunity and it’s exciting.”
In addition to the awards ceremony tonight, the second day will include sessions that highlight how Newmar is “driving customer loyalty through consumer experience,” from VP Customer Experience Simone Silva, as well as a presentation on how tariff and other regulatory updates are impacting the company.
