Updated: 2025
In the past twelve months, there were more than 300 different RV brands – built by more than 270 manufacturers – registered to over 300,000 customers in the United States. Yowsa!
To make it even more confusing, in many cases, there are hundreds of different models under a single manufacturing brand!
Welp, it will be a lot of work — but at Bish’s RV, we are on a mission to help you understand how to make sense of all the data.
We’ve been in the RV industry for over 35 years and we sell nearly every kind of RV. We have found that each manufacturer offers different advantages.
Knowing the differences between all the different RV makers can be difficult, — since some of the differences are subtle, but we’ve been partnered with most of these manufacturers for decades and we’re happy to share what we know with you.
We’ve created this “Top 10 RV Brands in America” list to help you find the best travel trailer or motorhome for you.
The number of RVs a brand sells is not the only thing you should consider when shopping for a camper, but the top selling brands are usually in the top for good reasons.
Here we’ll rank each manufacturer based on annual retail registration of RVs in the continental United States* and provide an overview of the manufacturers who have had the most retail customers register a particular manufacturer’s brand of RV in the past twelve months.
