The Future of RVing
I am developing an article and podcast segment about the future of RVing/camping. I wanted some of the expert input from the RV.NET audience. What trends do you see developing in the coming years? ...

1) More big trailers needing 50 amp service.
2) High-end all electric 5th wheels entering the market within two years. No propane at all (like high-end Class A's now)
3) Continued cutbacks at COE and other federal campgrounds as Congress tries to make agencies make recreation self-sustaining. (Continued issues with water usage and droughts will also hurt the COE.)
4) Cutbacks also at state parks in make states as the cost of providing full services water, sewer, 50Amp gets higher.
5) Bigger splits in the RV market between small weekend campers - and live-in larger rigs.
6) Demand for more 55+ commercial RV parks. Decreased demand for 'family campgrounds'.
7) Some 55+ parks might stay open a little longer, but I really doubt campgrounds where there is snow on the ground are going to stay open. The economics don't justify the expense.
Just my opinion, worth exactly what you pay for it.
