RUV's
I saw at the Tampa RV supershow there is a new class of rv called an RUV,,,to me they are just mini motor homes which Winnebago made for many years called mini-winnie . so they are not really a new thing at all....

They are a little different in this respect, they are a small class A but on the Ford E 350 chassis. The cab that normally remains in a Class C is removed (or not delivered with) and the entire house is built on the chassis just like a class A. Thor branded the RUV term and they are about 6' longer than a standard SUV. Frankly I've never seen an SUV with a bed kitchen and bathroom and electric bunk but maybe I am not looking hard enough. Minnie Winnies were actually a Class C MH. The AXIS and Vegas RUV's are more like European Class A's than A U.S. Class C and nothing really like any SUV I've seen.
No one said a SUV has a bed, kitchen and bathroom. I did however compare a SUV to a station wagon, meaning it's a marketing thing for sales. :)
Gotcha, I mis-interpreted your post. Sorry. :)Effy wrote:

- Someone mentioned them on the forum a couple months ago, I said the same thing, they're just short motorhomes .
It's a marketing thing to help sales.
To me it's the same as a SUV. They're just station wagons. :)
