ELKHART, Ind. – The RV Women’s Alliance will be showcasing its finished 2027 Chassis to Classy Vision Vehicle at Elkhart Open House this week, according to a video posted to the group’s official Youtube channel.
The custom travel trailer will be exhibited just inside the entry to the THOR Industries Inc. display at the RV/MH Hall of Fame grounds.
“Go straight through the THOR entry and head slightly to the right. Look for the RVWA flags,” said Susan Carpenter, RVWA president.
RVWA’s Chassis to Classy created a Vision Vehicle – a fully built out RV created through the shared visions of RVWA members and its sponsoring suppliers. These collective efforts of RV manufacturers, suppliers, and industry partners created a true one of a kind RV. The vehicle will be raffled off in March 2027, with proceeds directly supporting RVWA’s Charitable Foundation to help women thrive in the RV industry through education, mentorship, and professional development programming. Entries can be purchased here.
“Chassis to Classy represents everything RV Women’s Alliance stands for — collaboration, opportunity and the power of community,” said Susan Carpenter, president of RVWA. “This project showcases what’s possible when our industry comes together with a shared purpose, while creating meaningful impact that extends far beyond the vehicle itself.”
