Gulf Stream Coach Earns RVDA DSI Recognition for its Motorized and Towable Lines

Nappanee, IN – Gulf Stream Coach has once again demonstrated its industry-leading commitment to excellence, earning the prestigious 2025 DSI Quality Circle Award from the Recreational Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA) for both its motorized and towable product divisions. This top industry honor, determined directly by RV dealer feedback nationwide, recognizes the Nappanee-based manufacturer for superior quality, reliability, sales and service support, and its unrivaled commitment to its dealer partners.

The coveted award underscores a year of dedicated focus on manufacturing quality and dealer support for the nation’s largest family-owned RV manufacturer. Gulf Stream Coach’s consistent recognition by the RVDA highlights the strong trust dealers place in its products and operational integrity.

“To be recognized by our dealer partners with the DSI Award is the highest honor we can achieve,” said Phil Sarvari, President of Gulf Stream Coach. “It’s a direct reflection of their trust and confidence in our products and our people. This award belongs to every member of the Gulf Stream Coach team who comes to work each day dedicated to building quality RVs that families can depend on.”

The DSI Quality Circle Award is based on confidential dealer surveys rating manufacturers on four core areas: Reliability/Quality, Parts, Warranty, and Sales. Gulf Stream Coach received high marks across these categories for an impressive range of its most popular brands

Among the Gulf Stream brands earning the DSI award are the popular Conquest Class C and BT Cruiser motorhome lines as well as several of our towable product lines.

“As the nation’s largest family-owned RV manufacturer, we have the freedom to be nimble and highly responsive to what our partners are telling us,” Sarvari continued. “We answer to Main Street, not Wall Street, which means dealer and customer feedback is the most valuable asset we have. We listen and we respond. Earning this award confirms that our approach of building true partnerships is making a difference where it matters most: on the dealer lots and in the campgrounds.”

Gulf Stream Coach debuts innovative Conquest Transit 4237 All-Wheel-Drive motorhome

Nappanee, IN – Gulf Stream Coach, America’s largest family-owned RV manufacturer, announced the debut of its innovative Conquest Transit 4237 All-Wheel-Drive motorhome, which received an overwhelmingly positive reception from dealers at the Elkhart RV Hall of Fame Open House Show in September.

The nimble, 24-foot Class C motorhome is built on the advanced Ford Transit chassis and powered by a 6-cylinder Ford EcoBoost engine. Despite its compact size, it features an extra-large overhead bunk for spacious sleeping quarters.

The main attraction for dealers was the Intelligent All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system. It enhances traction and stability on challenging surfaces like snow, mud, and gravel by automatically distributing power when slip is detected. This feature improves safety and allows owners to access more remote destinations. Drivers can also select various traction modes via the large in-dash touchscreen to optimize performance.

“The response from our dealer partners was phenomenal,” said Gulf Stream Coach President Phil Sarvari. “They immediately recognized the market demand for a smaller, versatile motorhome with the all-weather, all-terrain capability the Conquest Transit’s AWD system provides.”

The Conquest Transit 4237 AWD is positioned to appeal to RVers who value maneuverability, safety, and the freedom to explore beyond the pavement.
