Ford recently announced that they were planning to produce the small Transit van chassis in Kansas City, MO. It was also reported that some RV manufacturers are considering utilizing this van chassis as the basis for a new smaller line-up of Class C motorhomes.

While in Florida I came upon a German RV made by Hymer which is based on the Ford Transit chassis. It includes ABS brakes, Traction Control, Electronic Stability Program and a Driver Side Airbag. The overall width is 2.14M or 7 feet wide and about (5.98m) or 20 feet long. That is a small footprint and yet the coach is “roomy”. It is an impressive vehicle with a large under bed storage compartment (known as a rear garage) accessible from the outside at the rear of the RV. It is compact however it is a stylish rendition with good use of glass to open up the interior. It has sleeping accommodation for two with three more berths optional. Many of the amenities we expect are included however the Toilet is a cassette type common on European RV’s. Have a look at these photos and see if you would be satisfied with a RV that looks like this one. I’ m pretty certain there will be a market for them---- do you agree?
