As of November 2025 we now know what the Best Selling RVs were for 2025. The North American RV industry has released year-to-date registration data through the third quarter, compiled by Statistical Surveys Inc. and cross-referenced with dealer wholesale reports from the RV Industry Association (RVIA). The results are unequivocal: towable RVs — specifically travel trailers and fifth wheels — continue to account for more than 92% of all new RV sales, leaving motorized units (Class A, B, and C) far outside the top tier.
Below is the definitive ranking of the ten best-selling individual RV model lines in the United States for the 2025 model year, based on retail registrations and wholesale shipments through September 2025.

Key Takeaways from the 2025 Sales Data
- Travel Trailers Dominate
Eight of the top ten best-selling RVs are conventional travel trailers. Only two fifth-wheel lines — Keystone Cougar Half-Ton and Montana High Country — crack the list. - Motorhomes Are Absent from the Top 30
The highest-selling motorized RV in 2025, the Thor Motor Coach Four Winds/Chateau (Class C), ranks approximately 27th–30th overall, with estimated sales below 5,000 units year-to-date. Class A and Class B models trail even further. - Weight and Tow-Vehicle Compatibility Drive Purchases
Every model in the top ten (except the full-size Montana High Country) has at least one floorplan that can be towed by a properly equipped half-ton pickup (F-150, Silverado 1500, Ram 1500, etc.). Average dry weights range from 2,900 lbs (Jay Flight SLX 154BH) to just under 10,000 lbs for the heaviest Cougar Half-Ton floorplans. - Brand Concentration
Four manufacturers — Forest River, Keystone, Jayco, and Grand Design — account for all ten spots. Forest River alone commands roughly 33% of the total U.S. market, followed by Keystone (25%) and Jayco/Grand Design combined (approximately 28%). - Price Remains the Primary Deciding Factor
Entry-level pricing for the top-selling models ranges from $19,900 MSRP (Jay Flight SLX 7) to the mid-$60,000s for loaded Cougar and Reflection fifth wheels. Real-world transaction prices are typically 25–35% below MSRP in the current soft market.
Outlook for the Remainder of 2025 and Beyond
With dealership inventories at their highest levels since 2022 and interest rates remaining elevated, manufacturers and dealers continue to push aggressive incentives on 2025 models. This has kept affordable, lightweight towables in the strongest demand while luxury motor coaches and large toy-hauler fifth wheels have seen the deepest inventory buildup.
For consumers, the message is clear: if you’re looking for the RV most other Americans are buying in 2025, it will almost certainly be a travel trailer under 7,500 lbs GVWR from one of the four dominant brands listed above.
