In 1971, the Gulf Stream RV products company based in Nappanee Indiana was founded by Jim Shea. The company name was changed to Gulf Stream Coach in 1983 — when they started making motorhomes, travel trailers, and fifth wheel trailers. (Gulf Stream’s first RV was the Foxfire travel trailer.) Today, Gulf Stream Coach Inc is one of the largest privately held RV manufacturers in North America. See photos and little-known facts about Gulf Stream RVs from people who’ve owned one or driven one.
Gulf Stream, a leading manufacturer of a full range of RV products was founded and is still owned by the Shea family — since 1971. Gulf Stream strives to follow all the units they build throughout their entire life. They not only register the RVs of original owners, but also second owners. Now that’s a level of commitment most other RV manufacturers just don’t bother with!

Jim and 3 friends drove an RV cross country last week — all the way from Elkhart, Indiana to Edmonton Alberta Canada. This was Jim’s first time being an RV transport driver. They were taking a Renegade motorhome from the factory in Indiana to a sales lot in Canada.
