What is the difference between a recreational vehicle, a commercial coach, and factory-built housing?
A recreation vehicle includes a motor home, travel trailer, truck camper or camping trailer, with or without motive power, and designed for recreational or emergency occupancy. A manufactured home is not a “recreational vehicle.” A commercial coach (which is a Department of Motor Vehicle term), is a vehicle, with or without motive power, that is used for industrial, professional, or commercial purposes. A manufactured home is not a “commercial coach.” Factory-built housing is often called “manufactured housing.” It is manufactured offsite to be assembled onsite, has a permanent foundation, and must meet local building codes.
