Why the Amish Are Building America’s RVs

According to the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association, RV manufacturing is a $50 billion business in the United States, employing nearly 300,000 Americans. Approximately 80% of the RVs manufactured in America are made in Northern Indiana.

The Amish in this region don’t just live near the RV epicenter, they’re building the vehicles. Most of the Amish men under 65 work in factories. The majority of these manufacturing plants either assemble RVs or supply parts such as cabinets or windows.


This week, a look at why the Amish are building America’s RVs.

TTFN, Fred.
