Washington, DC (CNN) – RV sales and rentals are booming, as Americans look for safe ways to get away during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Though RV business suffered during the worst of the pandemic, demand for the vehicles has swelled in recent weeks.

Forty-six million Americans plan to take an RV trip in the next 12 months, according to findings from the market researcher Ipsos that the RV Industry Association funded.

Even President Donald Trump suggested he may ditch Air Force One for an RV trip to New York.

“I think I’m gonna buy an RV and travel in an RV with our first lady,” Trump said at a news conference Friday at the White House. “It’s great, people are traveling. And you know what? They’re traveling in the United States. And they’re also driving. And they’re building the trailers.”
