The big rebound continues for the recreational vehicle industry.

For the 20th straight month, RV shipments in October were greater than the same month the previous year.

And they didn’t just barely beat the numbers.

According to the Reston, Va.-based Recreation Vehicle Industry Association, RV shipments to retailers were up 29.3 percent over September and up 16.6 percent compared to October 2012.

Year to date shipments through October have reached 277,703 units, which is 12.8 percent ahead of the same 10-month period last year.
