News | Diesel Hits an All-Time High, and the Outlook Isn't Good + Big New RV Debuts

from RV Miles Podcast · host RV Miles Network

Diesel prices have officially hit an all-time record in the U.S., with the national average reaching about $5.90 per gallon — and RVers could be dealing with elevated diesel prices well into fall and winter. In this week’s RV and camping news, we break down what’s driving the global diesel crunch, why diesel is so much more expensive than gasoline right now, and what it could mean for your upcoming RV travel budget. Plus, we’re getting our first real look at Boundless Recreation’s new fifth wheel, DRV Mobile Suites is returning under the Jayco Family of Companies, and several completely new RV lines are preparing to debut for the 2027 model year. Also this week: • California’s planned ban on disposable one-pound propane cylinders has been blocked by the U.S. Department of Transportation • A man connected to Carson Pass RV now faces more than 50 felony grand theft charges in an alleged $2.1 million RV fraud scheme • ATC is launching its first non-toy-hauler fifth wheel • Axiom RV is expanding with a new luxury fifth-wheel line • Coachmen has new and returning motorhome products coming for 2027 • Valterra introduces a redesigned portable RV waste tote tank Find all the RV parts and gear you need at etrailer: https://www.etrailer.com/vehicle-finder.aspx?etam=p0001 Mile Marker Membership: https://rvmiles.com/milemarkers  @Thatrvtech  's Boundless Recreation video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBHauAgnuFQ&t=466s ****************************** Connect with RV Miles:  RV Miles Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rvmiles Shop the RV Miles Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/rvmiles RV Miles Mailing List: https://rvmiles.com/mailinglist Mile Marker Membership: https://rvmiles.com/milemarkers 00:00 Intro 01:52 Why Diesel Stays Expensive 04:28 Trip Planning Fuel Costs 06:25 Sponsor eTrailer Break 07:12 Boundless Prototype First Look 09:01 DRV Mobile Suites Returns 10:14 New 2027 RV Lines Teased 12:52 Support RV Miles 13:30 Propane Bottle Ban Blocked 16:00 Dealership Fraud Charges 17:32 Valterra Tote Tank Upgrade 19:18 Wrap Up and Subscribe
