DECATUR, IN – March 21, 2023 – For those exploring the possibility of becoming full-time RVers, one common question or concern can be sacrificing some amenities which they are accustomed to at home.
Becoming a full-time RVer doesn’t mean you have to give up ‘at home’ amenities at all. At Fleetwood RV, for example, our coaches are made for whatever adventure RVers may have in mind. Several Fleetwood RV floor plans, including the Discovery® 36Q and our Discovery® LXE 36HQ, come equipped with Fleetwood’s luxurious, spacious kitchen island design, which was developed with full-timers or resort living in mind.
The kitchen island in the middle of the coach is perfect for RVers who like to set up for an extended stay. With a layout that’s perfect for entertaining and providing impressive amounts of extra storage, having the Fleetwood kitchen island can make the RV feel even more like home and provide an extra level of comfort. In addition, the ingenuity in the floor plan design means RVers can still access the half-bath at the middle of the coach and the bed when the slides are in and the coach is in motion. This makes it a great floor plan for families on the go or those who want to spread out and stay awhile.
Some people choose to stay in permanent RV parks because of how budget-friendly it is compared with renting or owning a home. Becoming a full-time RVer is also a great way to meet new people and explore more of nature – all of which makes finding the right long-term RV resort essential. There are different types of long-term RV parks offering monthly, seasonal, and annual parking plans.
Fleetwood RV highlights the benefits of its kitchen island floor plan in a recent blog post, which you can read at https://www.fleetwoodrv.com/resort-style-living-wherever-you-roam/.

REV Recreation Group, Inc., a recreation vehicle manufacturing subsidiary of REV Group, Inc., will once again highlight a number of its innovative models across its American Coach®, Fleetwood RV®, and Holiday Rambler® brands at the 2023 Florida RV SuperShow, which takes place Jan. 18-23 in Tampa, Fla. Overall, REV Recreation Group, Inc. plans to showcase approximately 45 models from its industry-leading brands spread across nearly 43,000 square feet of display space.
“2023 is shaping up to be another great year for all of our brands, and we’re thrilled to showcase our award-winning lineup as well as some of our new products and features with the world at the Florida RV SuperShow,” said Don Gephart, Marketing Manager with REV Recreation Group, Inc. “This year’s display of American Coach, Fleetwood RV and Holiday Rambler products will offer plenty for RVers to get excited about – whether they’re looking for adventure, family fun or the best the luxury RV lifestyle has to offer.”
Highlighting Innovative 2023 Models
Widely known for its proven track record of product innovations and features across its motorized RV brands, REV Recreation Group, Inc. will be highlighting several 2023 Class A models:
American Coach will once again set the tone for innovation in the luxury RV space with the debut of its all-new Diesel American Dream® 45P Designed with full-time RVers in mind, the 45P offers an incredibly spacious and luxurious layout, including both a full and a half bath – making the space ideal for entertaining, lingering, and living RV life to its most luxurious.
Fleetwood RV will be showcasing its brand-new – and award-winning – Diesel Frontier® GTX that features an industry-first dedicated office via its 37RT floorplan. The 37RT’s optional The Corner Office™ has been designed to deliver the space, technology, convenience, and privacy needed by those working or learning from the road, all while strategically located at the rear of the coach so it’s away from daily life activities. The space is cleverly arranged and includes an L-shaped desk with a built-in monitor and multiple nearby outlets, while a large window tops the desk to bring in natural light and deliver a view of the outdoors.
The Frontier GTX 39TA floorplan offers plenty of innovative and family-friendly features itself, starting with both slide-outs being located on the driver’s side. This enables the passenger side of the coach to be completely free for outside patio entertaining under the RV’s large awning and its luggage bays are easily accessible. The 39TA’s 1-½ bath configuration places the full bath mid-ship – providing family members and guests easy access – with a half-bath situated in the rear of the coach off the master bedroom.
Ready for families of all sizes, the 2023 Holiday Rambler Armada® 40P makes its debut at the 2023 Florida RV SuperShow. This luxurious diesel pusher offers serious power, safety, and stability to get RVers where they are going. This incredibly spacious new floorplan can sleep up to eight thanks to bunk beds mid-coach. Additional sleeping can be found in the sofa-bed, dinette, and an optional Hide-A-Loft drop-down bed.
Must-See Models and Test Drives
These are just a handful of the most anticipated new models on display in Tampa. Other “not to be missed” RVs will include the American Eagle® 45E, and its “resort-living” design style, which features a show-stopping galley kitchen with a center island and wine chiller. Other must-see models include the Fleetwood RV Flex®, and the brand-new Holiday Rambler Eclipse®, which features a striking, distinctive exterior design and three distinct floorplans. Also making a debut at the show in Tampa is the all-new Fortis® 36Y from Fleetwood. This family friendly coach features the exclusive Kid Kave™ at the rear of the coach with a half-bath.
“From corner offices to resort-style layouts, our incredible product display at the Tampa SuperShow will once again demonstrate why we lead the way in innovative floorplans that fit the needs of any RVer,” said Doug Miller, Product Manager for REV Recreation Group, Inc. “We can’t wait to showcase all of the amazing product features and highlights to RVers from around the country.”
In addition, and thanks to its dealer partner, General RV, SuperShow attendees will have the unique opportunity to view and test-drive REV Recreation Group RVs.

A suite of innovative features uniquely geared toward the growing post-pandemic, remote-work population has earned the Fleetwood RV® Frontier GTX industry accolades.
In its November issue, RV PRO named the Frontier GTX a Best New Model for 2023, sharing that the “industry exclusive corner office in the 37RT is just another industry innovation from Fleetwood.”
In addition, RVBusiness named the Frontier GTX 37RT one of its 10 finalists for RV of the Year. The Frontier GTX 37RT was one of only three Class A diesel motorhomes to be named an RV of the Year finalist.
Lastly, RV News named the Frontier GTX 37RT one of its 2023 Type A Diesel Motorhomes of the Year, noting that the corner office’s “design creates a quiet, private space for office-minded consumers.”
The 37RT’s optional The Corner Office™ has been designed to deliver the space, technology, convenience, and privacy needed by those working or learning from the road, all while strategically located at the rear of the coach so it’s away from daily life activities. The space is cleverly arranged and includes an L-shaped desk with a built-in monitor and multiple nearby outlets, while a large window tops the desk to bring in natural light and deliver a view of the outdoors.
“It’s great to see how much excitement, enthusiasm and interest the Frontier GTX is already generating across the industry,” said Don Gephart, Marketing Manager with REV Recreation Group. “The Frontier GTX is the latest example of Fleetwood’s proven experience in developing innovative products that provide the features RVers want. From the first time we shared the Frontier GTX with the industry, we could tell it would be a hit among dealers and RVers alike.”
Fleetwood debuted the Frontier GTX 37RT and its innovative corner office option at the 2022 Open House in Elkhart in September. Those wanting to see the Frontier GTX firsthand are invited to see it at the 2023 Florida RV Super Show, which is open to the public and will be held at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa, Florida, from January 18-22.

In spite of unseasonable cool and sometimes wet weather, the return of the Dealer Open House in Elkhart, IN, last week brought with it strong dealer demand and enthusiasm for new and updated 2023 Class A, Class B, Super C and towable units from REV Group’s American Coach®, Fleetwood RV®, Holiday Rambler®, Renegade RV™, Midwest Automotive Designs™, and Lance® brands.
REV Recreation Group brands combined to showcase more than 60 models at Open House, building on dealer and customer enthusiasm generated at the recent America’s Largest RV Show in Hershey, PA.
“It was great for our entire team to be back in Elkhart and to welcome our amazing dealers to the REV Recreation Group display,” said Mike Lanciotti, President of REV Recreation Segment. “REV Recreation Group is built on a fantastic line-up of iconic brands, and to showcase those brands as a family to our dealer partners is important. We saw incredible dealer response and excitement across all our brands and products, and especially for the new models including the Lance Enduro™ and the Fleetwood Frontier® GTX. A successful week at Open House provides us outstanding momentum heading into 2023.”
New products on display at the Open House included the brand-new Fleetwood RV Frontier GTX Class A Diesel luxury motorhome that features an industry-first dedicated office via its 37RT floorplan. The 37RT’s optional The Corner Office™ has been designed to deliver the space, technology, convenience, and privacy needed by those working or learning from the road, all while strategically located at the rear of the coach so it’s away from daily life activities. The space is cleverly arranged and includes an L-shaped desk with a built-in monitor and multiple nearby outlets, while a large window tops the desk to bring in natural light and deliver a view of the outdoors.
The Frontier® GTX 39TA floor plan offers its own set of well-thought-out features, starting with both slide-outs being located on the driver’s side, meaning the passenger side of the coach is completely free for outside patio entertaining under the RV’s large awning and its luggage bays are easily accessible.
In addition, the 39TA offers the much-sought-after 1-½ bath configuration. The full bath is located mid-ship – providing family members and guests easy access – with a half-bath situated in the rear of the coach off the master bedroom. The master suite also features a “north/south” queen bed positioned in the center of the room, allowing ample space to walk around on both sides.
Additional lass A Gas products on display at the Dealer Open House included the Fleetwood RV Flex® and Flair® 33B6, as well as the brand-new Holiday Rambler Eclipse®, which features a striking, distinctive exterior design and three distinct floorplans.
“It’s hard to describe how much we missed being able to showcase our full line of Class A motorhomes to our dealers and suppliers,” said Don Gephart, Marketing Manager for Fleetwood RV. “The new Frontier GTX is a product our dealers and customers have been asking for since the launch of the Frontier – and we are confident we delivered an innovative product that RVers are going to love. The 37RT floorplan in particular with its optional office will fit all types – whether they’re homeschoolers, day traders or remote workers. It’s a product unlike anything else on the market, and it was great to showcase it to dealers in Elkhart.”
Renegade RV showcased its 2023 Valencia® Super C Diesel, available in four floorplans and offering a number of high-end interior features, including solid-surface countertops, glass tile backsplash, full-length wardrobe and optional theater seating.
Lance Camper made a splash with the debut of its Enduro™ overland concept unit. Designed for off-grid camping and the active outdoors person, the Enduro features a beautiful, modern and functional interior with a wet bath and u-shaped dinette with kids bunks, as well as a state-of-the-art exterior kitchen and available bike and firewood racks. The Enduro also features solar battery technology and onboard freshwater supply and filtering to enable owners to enjoy true soft-road adventuring.
“Dealer reception of the all-new Lance Enduro adventure trailer could not have been better!” states Bob Rogers, Director of Marketing for Lance Camper. “We also asked for and received some great suggestions for fine-tuning the option packages and confirmation that we have got it right, with nearly 100% of our dealers in attendance simply asking when they can get it.”
Midwest Automotive Design and American Coach showcased an updated version of its lithium Freedom package, which offers a significantly increased amount of power of up to 1080 amp hours. This new system includes a Nations-brand engine driver secondary alternator that can completely charge the system in approximately three hours and allow for up to 14 hours of dry camping between charges depending on conditions.
Another Midwest Automotive Design highlight was an updated version of its American Coach Patriot® business class limo, which keeps productivity in high gear on the road thanks to accessories and amenities like sumptuous leather reclining chairs, exquisite wood tables, access to Wi-Fi, iPad controls, premium sound system and TV monitor.
