THIS summer 20m or so Americans have hit the road in motor homes or towable caravans. El Monte RV, a national recreational-vehicle rental chain, observes that rentals are up about 40% year on year so far for 2017, with the strongest growth in the north-east. The manager at the El Monte branch in Linden, New Jersey is seeing double-digit growth over last year. RV sales are up, too. According to the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA), a trade group, wholesale shipments have increased 5% over 2010 and are expected to grow another 7% by the end of the year.
今年夏天,大约有两千万美国人开着房车或者拉着拖车上了路。全美休闲车出租连锁公司艾尔蒙特休闲车租赁发现,2017年车辆出租数量比去年同比增长了40%,其中,东北地区增长最高。艾尔蒙特位于新泽西州林登市的分公司经理正在见证两位数的同比增长。同时,休闲车的销售额也有所上涨。据美国房车工业协会(RVIA,一家贸易集团)透露,去年批发供货量比2010年提高了5%,预计今年再涨7%。
RVs sell for as little as $5,000 for a caravan to $1.5m and higher for a deluxe motor home. More than 90% of them are made in the United States and more than 80% in a single county in Indiana. James Ashurst of RVIA sees the RV market as a sort of bellwether of the American economy. In 2009 it was hard to shift the things; but now, says Andy Heck, a dealer at Alpin Haus in Amsterdam, New York, "Growth in sales is a good sign that credit is opening up."
