01 How the industry is structured
Three corporate groups build most of the towable RVs sold in North America. Thor Industries and Forest River (a Berkshire Hathaway company) together account for roughly half the conventional travel-trailer market; Grand Design, owned by Winnebago, leads the premium-mainstream segment on satisfaction and volume.
That structure is why a buyer cross-shopping "different brands" is often comparing nameplates from the same parent. A handful of independents sit outside it — most notably Brinkley RV, a privately held maker founded by industry veterans whose Model Z has become one of the fastest-rising luxury fifth wheels in the market and whose Model G brings the same build to the luxury fifth-wheel toy-hauler segment. The structure also shifts: in March 2025 Thor realigned Heartland under Jayco, and its relaunched Prowler, North Trail and Bighorn lines are now profiled here. This directory groups makers by parent and links each profiled manufacturer to a brand index that maps its individual lines down to floorplans and verified specs.
