The generation has been \u201cmarketplace-primed\u201d from their experience with companies like Airbnb and Uber, and they are quick to capitalize on potential gains. He told us about one enterprising 34-year-old who predicted the market trends early and began to rent out RVs on Outdoorsy, making more than $8 million in just a few years. <\/p>\n<p>Cavins predicts a surge of listings on Outdoorsy next year after the young people who purchased RVs complete many of their travel plans. Still, demand is far exceeding supply at the moment, but it doesn\u2019t need to: According to Cavins, more than 56 million RVs in North America sit unused 97% of the year.<\/p>\n<div data-layout=\"inline\n                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\" class=\"\n          media-object\n          type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            inline\n  article__inset\n          article__inset--type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            article__inset--inline\n  \"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n        media-object-image\n        enlarge-image\n        renoImageFormat-\n        img-inline\n        article__inset__image\n      \" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"padding-bottom:69.921875%;\" data-mobile-ratio=\"69.921875%\" data-layout-ratio=\"69.921875%\" data-subtype=\"photo\" class=\"image-container  responsive-media article__inset__image__image\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=140&amp;size=1.4301675977653632 140w,\nhttps:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=540&amp;size=1.4301675977653632 540w,\nhttps:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=620&amp;size=1.4301675977653632 620w,\nhttps:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=700&amp;size=1.4301675977653632 700w,\nhttps:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=860&amp;size=1.4301675977653632 860w,\nhttps:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=1260&amp;size=1.4301675977653632 1260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 140px) 100px,\n(max-width: 540px) 500px,\n(max-width: 620px) 580px,\n(max-width: 700px) 660px,\n(max-width: 860px) 820px,\n1260px\" src=\"https:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=620&amp;size=1.4301675977653632\" data-enlarge=\"https:\/\/images.mktw.net\/im-363859?width=1260&amp;size=1.4301675977653632\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"wsj-article-caption article__inset__image__caption\" itemprop=\"caption\"><span class=\"wsj-article-credit article__inset__image__caption__credit\" itemprop=\"creator\"><br \/>\n            @rvshare<br \/>\n          <\/span><br \/>\n  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>       The growth in RV culture is sure to continue to revolutionize the way we travel going forward.
