ELKHART, Ind. -- The RV industry seems to be making a comeback.
We talked with Wilbur Bontrager, CEO of Jayco RV. Bontrager says attendance has been good, and RV sales are on the rebound.
He says Jacyo has even started tapping into the Chinese market.
"There continues to be strong interest from China in RV's,” says Bontrager. “The Chinese idolize the Western lifestyle."
Bontrager says the Chinese mainly buy motorcoaches, because it's illegal to tow RV’s there, and while sales there are good, he says it'll take several years for the market to boom because of Chinese laws.
