was a groundbreaking RV concept designed by General Motors as part of their Parade of Progress, a traveling exhibition showcasing futuristic technology. The Futurliner featured an aerodynamic design with a large, bus-like body, a centrally mounted driver&#8217;s seat, and massive side panels that opened to reveal display areas. Despite its innovative design and impressive presence, only 12 units were ever built, and the concept never took off commercially. The Futurliner&#8217;s size and complexity made it impractical for general use, and its purpose as a mobile exhibition vehicle limited its appeal to the broader RV market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GMC_Motorhome_1973-1978\"><\/span>GMC Motorhome (1973-1978)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"423\" height=\"249\" src=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GMC-Motorhome-1973-1978.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GMC-Motorhome-1973-1978.jpg 423w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GMC-Motorhome-1973-1978-300x177.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 423px) 100vw, 423px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Editorial Credit: General Motors pre-1978 \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:1973_GMC_Motorhome.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The GMC Motorhome was a groundbreaking RV designed with a front-wheel-drive layout and a low center of gravity, offering superior handling and stability compared to other RVs of its time.

It featured a sleek, aerodynamic design with a fiberglass body, a pop-top roof, and a turbocharged BMW diesel engine. The Vixen was intended to be a more fuel-efficient and easy-to-drive alternative to traditional RVs. However, despite its innovative design and strong initial interest, the Vixen struggled to find a market. Production issues, high manufacturing costs, and competition from more established RV brands led to its discontinuation after just three years, with only about 587 units produced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ultra_Van_1960-1970\"><\/span>Ultra Van (1960-1970)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970-480x360.jpg 480w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Ultra-Van-1960-1970.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Editorial Credit: Alden Jewell \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/autohistorian\/30686407150\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flickr<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Ultra Van was a unique, airplane-inspired RV designed by aircraft engineer David Peterson. It featured an all-aluminum monocoque construction, making it lightweight and fuel-efficient. Powered by a rear-mounted Corvair engine, the Ultra Van offered excellent handling and aerodynamics for its time. Despite its innovative design and cult following, the Ultra Van never achieved commercial success. The limited production capacity, coupled with the decline of the Corvair engine, led to its eventual demise. Only around 3,000 units were built, and today it remains a rare collector&#8217;s item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clark_Cortez_1963-1979\"><\/span>Clark Cortez (1963-1979)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40716\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979-480x360.jpg 480w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Clark-Cortez-1963-1979.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Editorial Credit: JOHN LLOYD \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/hugo90\/35971601090\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flickr<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Clark Cortez was one of the first front-wheel-drive RVs, featuring a compact and durable design that made it easy to maneuver and park. It had a steel unibody construction, which was rare for RVs at the time, and a Chrysler 225 Slant-Six engine. The Cortez was groundbreaking for its automotive-style handling and relatively low center of gravity. However, its high price and the introduction of larger, more luxurious RVs led to its decline in popularity. Despite its innovative design, the Cortez was eventually overshadowed by more conventional RVs, and production ceased in 1979.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chinook_RV_1960s-2005\"><\/span>Chinook RV (1960s-2005)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Chinook-RV-1960s-2005-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Chinook-RV-1960s-2005-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Chinook-RV-1960s-2005-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Chinook-RV-1960s-2005-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Chinook-RV-1960s-2005-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Chinook-RV-1960s-2005.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Editorial Credit: Greg Gjerdingen \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:1974_Toyota_HiLux_Chinook_Weekender_RV_%2826647622933%29.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Chinook RV, often referred to as the &#8220;Sports Car of Motorhomes,&#8221; was a compact, Class B RV known for its aerodynamic design and high-quality construction.

The high cost of production and the niche market for such a specialized vehicle led to limited sales, and Revcon eventually discontinued the model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Safari_Trek_1991-2008\"><\/span>Safari Trek (1991-2008)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"792\" src=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Safari-Trek-1991-2008-1024x792.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Safari-Trek-1991-2008-1024x792.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Safari-Trek-1991-2008-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Safari-Trek-1991-2008-768x594.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Safari-Trek-1991-2008-1536x1188.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mycarmakesnoise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Safari-Trek-1991-2008.jpg 1550w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Editorial Credit: MercurySable99 \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:1992_Safari_Trek_Pathmaker_Edition,_front_left,_05-31-2023.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikimedia Commons<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Safari Trek was an innovative Class A motorhome known for its unique &#8220;Electro-Majic&#8221; bed that descended from the ceiling, allowing for more living space during the day.
