Modern Buggy Adding Brands and Expanding its Product Reach
EDWARDSBURG, Mich. –?Modern Buggy RV will be showcasing the all-new Country Born series of lightweight adventure trailers as well as upgrades to its current lineup of travel trailers and truck campers at its Elkhart RV Open House display, according to information provided by Modern Buggy owner Earl Williams.
“The Country Born series will have many of the same high-quality components as our Little and Big Buggys offer, such as full-composite Vixenite flooring, one-piece roof and ceiling and all walls will still be backed with Azdel,” Williams explained. “We will still be using torsion axles, aluminum wall construction and steel framing. We will not skimp on construction and quality. The biggest difference will be in the outward design and graphics packages. We want to utilize a less rounded rear design, to allow us more flexibility and functionality to design more storage and floor plan solutions.”
He added, “Modern Buggy will continue to lead and set the pace with new floor plans, design and the best products we can use to build our units. Stop into dealer expo to see these in person.”

Liquified RV Opens Warehouse & Distribution Center in Elkhart
ELKHART, Ind. – Liquified RV, the startup company known for its holding tank treatment, has grown so quickly that the company has opened a Warehouse & Distribution Center in Elkhart, Ind.
The warehouse was necessary, officials said, because Liquified RV is now offering wholesale distribution directly to RV dealerships and campgrounds. The company intends to continue its consumer-direct model, but co-owners Matt Foxcroft and Wil Knowles were quick to mention all retail pricing is universal.
The 10,000-square-foot warehouse is located along Beck Drive on the Alliance RV campus. In fact, Foxcroft and Knowles acquired the warehouse building from Alliance RV.
“We are great friends with (Alliance RV c0-founders) Ryan and Coley Brady and we were in the market for a 3,000- to 5,000-square-foot warehouse. They ended up buying the warehouse across the street, and so they gave us an amazing deal on their warehouse with favorable terms because they’ve been business mentors to us and great friends. And so now we have a prime piece of real estate on an amazing, huge warehouse that’s something that we can definitely grow in and expand in,” said Knowles, who serves as the company’s vice president of operations and wholesale.
