Whether it sounds snooty or not we all have RVs 'cause it stands for Recreational Vehicle. (Some friends of ours call only motorhomes RVs. Drives me nuts!) And many of the responders to this thread admitted that "camper" covers a multitude of vehicles. So it should be:
  • Motorhomes
  • Fifth-wheels
  • Travel Trailers (I HATE the term "bumper pull")
  • Hybrids
  • Tent-trailers


Okay, now we can tell everyone we had a meeting and it's official. :)
