Definitions/Acronyms and Alternate Names

Travel Trailer – The travel trailer is a towable unit that connects to a ball hitch mounted on the tow vehicle and is designed as living quarters for recreational travel.

Other terms used for travel trailer:

Conventional trailer Bumper pull trailer Travel trailer coach Tagalong trailer

The travel trailer has the following sub-types:

Toy Hauler The term toy hauler is applied to both travel trailers and fifth wheels, and it describes an RV designed to carry toys—small cars, dune buggies, four wheelers, motorcycles, etc.

Distinguishing features of a toy hauler are the large door in the back which opens down to create a ramp; a dedicated garage area and/or fold-away furniture in the main living compartment; and often has a third axle to support heavy toys.

Expandable – A Travel Trailer designed to vertically or horizontally expand and collapse.

Typically includes one or two canvas ends that fold out to create additional beds. The expandable travel trailer is a hybrid between a pop-up camper and a traditional travel trailer. The trailer looks like a travel trailer on the road, but when placed at the campsite, it expands to provide more room.

Vertically: On vertically expanding units, the slightly larger top portion of the trailer slides down over the bottom half, considerably reducing the height during transportation.

At the campground the trailer is expanded to full height, resembling a traditional trailer.

Horizontally: On horizontally expanding units (also called fold-out trailers), tent-like compartments fold out from the body to create beds.

Folding trailer – The folding trailer is a small, light-weight towable that folds or collapses into a low profile. Its small size and weight makes it suitable for towing behind light vehicles such as cars, SUV's, and mini pickup trucks.

Camper trailer Folding camper Pop-up trailer Tent trailer

Teardrop Trailer A teardrop trailer gets its name from the tear shaped profile—pointed in the back and rounded in the front. In general, teardrop trailers are small and light, towable by large cars and SUV's. Some are small enough to be towed by motorcycles.

Most teardrop trailers are so small that they provide only the very basics: bed, a small amount of inside storage, and minimal external cooking facilities. Some models are large enough to accommodate inside cooking and dining. The shape notwithstanding, some manufacturers group all very small trailers into the teardrop category.

Fifth Wheel Trailers (fifth wheel) – The fifth wheel is a towable unit that connects to the tow vehicle directly above the rear axle by way of a special fifth wheel hitch. This causes several feet of the connected trailer to hang over the tow vehicle, placing about 15 to 25% of the trailers weight on the rear axle of the truck. Commercial semi-trucks and trailers use this hitch configuration.

Other terms used for fifth wheel:

5th wheel Fiver

Sub-Types

The fifth wheel has one sub-type:

Toy Hauler The term toy hauler is applied to both fifth wheels and travel trailers, and it describes an RV designed to carry toys—small cars, dune buggies, four wheelers, motorcycles, etc.

Distinguishing features of a toy hauler are the large door in the back which opens down to create a ramp; a dedicated garage area and/or fold-away furniture in the main living compartment; and often has a third axle to support heavy toys.

Motor Home - A motor home is a RV that have been built on or incorporates so form of drivable chassis, it does not require an additional of a vehicle to move or “drive” the unit.

Class A – Class A motor home is a recreation vehicle built on a stripped truck chassis where the driving compartment is an integral part of the RV interior. Class A motor homes look like busses.

Unlike the Class C motor home, the chassis of a Class A does not come with a driving compartment (or cab). The chassis includes the following major components: frame, engine, fuel tank, axles, drive train, wheels, tires, steering column, engine and braking controls, and dashboard instruments.

Other terms used for Class A motor home:

Coach Motor coach

Sub-Types

The Class A motor home has one sub-type:

Bus Conversion A bus conversion is a commercial passenger bus that has been converted into an RV. Some bus conversions are easy to spot because their previous skin is mostly intact, often resembling a Greyhound bus.

Though not sub-types, some Class A's are referred to as a pusher or diesel pusher. A pusher is a motor home with rear mounted engine for the purposes of better accommodating large engines.

Two other benefits of having the engine in the rear is the reduced engine noise and the ability to install the main door near the front of the vehicle.

Motor Home, Class B – The Class B motor home is created from a standard passenger or commercial minivan. Most models have raised roofs, but otherwise the living space is constrained by the dimensions of the van. A Class B is usually a term applied to factory-built units; conversion van is a term applied to units that started out as conventional vans and were subsequently converted to RV's.

Other terms used for Class B motor home:

Camper van Conversion van Van camper

Motor Home, Class C – The Class C motor home, or mini motor home, is a recreation vehicle built on a cut-away van or truck chassis, including the cab. Many Class C motor homes are roughly the size and shape of rental moving trucks.

It differs from the Class A motor home in that the Class C chassis comes with the cab from the manufacturer. Another distinguishing feature of the Class C is the bed compartment over the cab.

Recreation Vehicle or RV – An RV is a vehicle designed as temporary living quarters for recreational, camping, travel or seasonal use. RVs may be motorized (motorhomes) or towable (travel trailers, folding camping trailers, truck campers, and park models). Off-road vehicles are not included in the RV definition.

Truck Camper – The truck camper is not a vehicle in itself, but an add-on living quarters designed to slide into the bed of a full size pickup truck. The camper is fastened to the truck frame during transport and slides out onto its own legs at the camp site.
