Roaming Times Announces the Green RV of the Year Award - 2010

PHOENIX, April 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Roaming Times, the world's leading RV review and RV consumer report website for more than 10 years (www.roamingtimes.com), has announced the 3rd annual Roaming Times Green RV of the Year Award. The purpose of the Roaming Times' Green RV of the Year selection is to recognize and highlight innovation in the RVing industry that supports environmental factors for the world in general, and the RVing, travel and leisure industries in particular.

Roaming Times selects Earthbound RV as the 2010 Roaming Times Green RV of the Year.

"The RV industry is reinventing itself and starting to bounce back," so said Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels about Earthbound RV in 2010.

David B. Hoefer, Earthbound's VP of sales and marketing said:

"We're at the cutting edge. Instead of traditional RV-building methods, we've turned to experts in other fields, such as automotive and plastics…"

The V-2 Earthbound being produced has already eliminated all wood and wood by-products. "Earthbound has leaped ahead with the use of composites, thermoplastics, and lightweight hybrid structural materials. We've been partnering with major international composite suppliers for over 8 years."

Earthbound  trailers are eco-friendly and lightweight. "We have the potential to add 11 million new customers to the towable RV buying market. Our RVs are towable with vehicles that are already parked in many of today's family driveways."

"We're in the 21st century. The consumer will not accept the status quo, why should we?" said C. David Hoefer  - Earthbound RV Co-founder, Chairman, and CEO - who has had a hand in founding a number of companies over the years, including Dutchmen, Hart Housing, Four Winds and Pilgrim RV. The RVs now being produced represent the second generation of Earthbound's eco-friendly vehicles; the first was produced by Hoefer Sr.'s previous company, Pilgrim RV.

"This is eons ahead of Pilgrim," said Hoefer. "We've taken it five steps further as far as greenness."

For these reasons, and perhaps more, the Earthbound RV is named the Roaming Times' 2010 Green RV of the Year.
