    A Shift in the RV Industry? Our Big Takeaways from the Florida RV SuperShow | Episode 393

    We just got back from the Florida RV SuperShow in Tampa — the biggest SuperShow ever — and this year felt different. In Episode 393 of the RV Miles Podcast, we break down the show-floor vibe, the new brands that finally made it in, the biggest relaunches and “comeback” stories, and why competition suddenly feels real again in the RV industry. We also dig into the new “quality” narrative (frames, suspensions, warranties), talk through brands and models that impressed us (including  @noovovans  and the  @EmberRecreationalVehicles  Touring Edition return), and share a few hot takes on designs that might be polarizing… or just plain confusing. Plus: the strange experience of walking into a floorplan that felt a little too familiar. 😅 _____ *Become an RV Miles Mile Marker member and get your first month for $3 *Get your FREE weekly Road Signs Newsletter at https://rvmiles.com/mailinglist/ Support our Sponsors: *Check out all Blue Ox has to offer at https://BlueOx.com *Find all the RV parts and gear you need at etrailer: https://www.etrailer.com/vehicle-finder.aspx?etam=p0001 *Find Liquified at https://liquifiedrv.com/ Track SSTK_MUSIC_ID  437726– Monetization ID MONETIZATION_ID AMXDXB4BX5FLHUYE 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:47 Weather Adventures in Florida 03:24 Upcoming Events and Seminars 04:42 Florida RV Super Show Highlights 06:31 Industry Changes and Innovations 12:16 Focus on Quality and Warranties 15:18 Suspension Upgrades and Improvements 25:46 Show Comparisons and New Brands 37:12 Novo Class B Vans 41:52 Bowlus Boutique Travel Trailers 46:12 Ember 50:17 Axiom Fifth Wheels 57:28 Innovative RV Designs and Final Thoughts
