I reckon a coachbuilt or A class is a motorhome.
An RV is....... well an RV.
A panel van conversion, Trigano, Auto Sleeper, IH etc etc, is a campervan.

Caravenette......uuugggghhhhh:Angry::Angry::Angry:
almost as bad as 'ice cream van'oh:

In the '70's and '80's the common term was Motor Caravan - the use of Motorhome generically came about during the '90's............

the Aussies and the Kiwi's have always called them Camper vans.........

the Yanks - RV's........... but then they have always had difficulty spelling the English language

Like anything else its just a name, expect in them days they were proud to be owners of a caravanette. I think camper vans is a fair description of what it is,doesn't matter which you like they are all basically the samehardhat

Quite like Mobile Tupperware what do you thinkhardhathardhathardhat

Don't know why the name winds me up like it does, but when I hear it, for me, it's like someone dragging thier nails down a blackboard, I shudder!!!!!oh:

The American generic name as we all know is Recreational Vehicle (RV) which is anything from a folding trailer tent to an A or C class which they call a motorhome..

my understanding is as follows

Camper van .. a converted panel van, or B class

Motor caravan .. coach built, C or A class

Motor home ... American term for a luxury home on wheels that you can live in, any class.

but they (the yanks) have now muddied the water with C+ and B+ classes oh:

Caravanette .. = to wind up Pappa and Zazkar

or yes.. and

Dormobile .. Manufacturer of camper vans .. at one time used as a generic name for any camper van..

 

[tofo]

does it really matter:thumb:
long as the caravan aint in front of you oh::Blush:
