Summary

The pandemic may be on the wane but the state of the RV industry as the second quarter of 2022 starts rolling is one of catch up, a slightly easing supply chain situation, and continued record demand for the products they build. Those are some of the things we're learning this week as we visit the Elkhart, Indiana region, the RV Capital of the world.
