Interesting video about the Elkhart boom.
I found this interesting in that it takes a look at how Elkhart is coping with the boom in the RV business. It also has some good customer feed back interviews. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXxRO...

Well, "bust my britches!" I've had access to WIPB (Channel 49.1, 49.2 and 49.3) for years now but never paid any attention to it. I knew they were PBS stations, but never thought to actually see what they air. To my surprise, yes! I went to the WIPB web site, and am really impressed.
I did enjoy the show. I think it speaks volumes. I remember just a few years ago the down-turn Elkhart and Goshen, took in the RV industry. Makes me glad to know there is a strong comeback now.
I think the show was nicely done. It presented a good balance between the younger generation and the older generation of RVers, and mixed in a bit of full-time seekers too.
I also enjoyed getting insights into the local happenings outside of the RV industry, including the housing building boom right now.
The only thing that really grabbed my attention in a negative way, was when he talked about the 7 year cycle. Make me wonder if we will be experiencing another slump in the RV industry again in our futures? (I hope not!)
