There’s good news for the Elkhart County economy.

According to our reporting partners at The Elkhart Truth, the RV industry has grown for the second month in a row.

Last month, more than 17,000 RV's were sold, which is a 13% increase over last September.

It's the first year-to-year gain in almost two years.

Trailers led the recovery with a 17.5% increase. Motorhome shipments actually fell, but analysts say they are stabilizing.
