Neiman Marcus has teamed up with Bowlus Road Chief to unveil a $255,000 Bowlus Endless Highways Bespoke Performance Edition travel trailer RV as a part of the luxury department store's 2020 Fantasy Gifts.

As of now, there's no better time or year to include a travel trailer in a holiday gift guide. Several months ago, road travel, and consequently RV sales, started skyrocketing as states began lifting coronavirus-induced stay-at-home orders and people started looking for safer travel alternatives to cruises and airplanes.

Even though months have passed since this RV boom initially became apparent, the recreational vehicle industry has still shown no signs of slowing down. Last month, RV manufacturers shipped out 41,509 units, a 31.2% increase year-over-year, according to a September 2020 survey of RV manufacturers by the RV Industry Association trade group.
