Earthbound says: "The RV industry is well over due for
change, and the industry pioneers behind Earthbound RV have
been diligently working on alternative materials, designs
and construction methods, that we believe, will initiate
that change."
Since RoamingTimes.com named Earthbound as
the
2010 Green RV of the Year award they've gone on to
make the product a big success. C. David Hoefer
(Sr.), Earthbound RV’s co-founder, chairman and CEO said
(9/10) "We've actually got probably 40 dealers already"
(- see the video below.) Congratulations
Earthbound!
Earthbound says: "Earthbound’s sleek automotive
styling isn’t just for good looks! The innovative design
team behind Earthbound started from the ground up, searching
out alternative materials and construction methods to
reinvent a new standard for RV design."
A Roaming Times' reader
says:
"I just love this Earthbound
Trailer! It is about time that
someone built an RV like they
build boats and aircraft
interiors! Most RV have become
works of junk, rather than works
of art. I think Earthbound as
hit the nail on the head with
this one!" akasurf

The original concept: "The Earthbound travel trailer
will revolutionize the towable RV industry with innovations
never before seen in RVs. Earthbound RV will utilize
lighter, recyclable, low volatile organic compound
construction materials in an easily towed, family friendly
RV, with an original, aerodynamic, automotive inspired
design."
The product - now in dealers: An exterior picture of the 2011

The next 2 pictures below show the interior of the
Earthbound Dillon model
(see floorplans below.) Roaming Times thinks this
really is a well thought out and beautiful floorplan with
many innovative
features. Many of our readers have told us about their
problems with
formaldehyde in a new RV; it really is good to see the
use of low volatile organic compound construction materials
in the Earthbound.

With regards to quality, Earthbound says: "Most
U.S. consumers are plagued by low final assembly
quality and poor material content from RV
manufacturer’s old school of design and basic
construction methods, which in turn, has
impacted the consumers overall view of the RV
industry’s quality standards and impacted the
Customer Satisfaction Index. By utilizing
state of the art equipment, space-age materials,
full pre-delivery inspections and a production
management team that features a vested ownership
in the company, a new standard of quality will
evolve at Earthbound RV." Impressive.

Just
a couple of final points from Earthbound:
- Earthbound RV's construction is backed up by a
groundbreaking, 3-year, limited, bumper-to-hitch
warranty
- A name you can trust. Earthbound RV is truly the
"original innovator" to the RV industry. Although
Earthbound RV is a new name to most, the icons at
the helm of Earthbound have brought you industry
changing names like Dutchmen, Hart Housing,
Fourwinds and Pilgrim International.
