Looks like they were made by R-Vision.

No, Dodge was putting their name on trailers for a couple of years. The one in the picture was a toyhauler. I was thinking they were built by K-Z but ChooChooMan might be right with R-Vision.

Relatively new, too, with that Ram logo, I'd think!

Pretty limited market if you ask me.
Why would anyone with a ford or chevy buy one?

Let's turn that around and say that Ford and Chevy did put their name on RVs- nothing would really change because you would still see a Ram pulling it

Maybe that's why the label only lasted a couple of years.

Thanks for posting this. One of those things you never knew. I looked them up and they are listed in the NADA guides. They only listed a 2007 model year. Here is an excerpt from it and link showing different models available:
Dodge brand recreational vehicles were produced through R-Vision RV under license from auto company Chrysler. Travel trailers of Dodge range in lengths from 27 to 32 feet while fifth wheels were sold in 27-foot and 38-foot long varieties. Dodge trailers feature distinctive color graphics on the outside and a well-appointed cabin inside.

Here's a pic of the back side of the Dodge fifth wheel. I took this pic in 2008 at the Indian Creek RV Park in Louisiana.

A friend has a VW bus that is mainly driven by his wife. He replaced the VW logo with a Dodge logo. He reckons it's his instruction to anyone who sees her coming!

I love walking around campgrounds and seeing unique RV's. While this next one isn't a true RV, it can be used as one. It's a houseboat that is highway legal and you can use it as an RV on the way to your destination lake. The pontoons store on the roof for travel. This model even had a slideout. I think we were at a campground in Kansas when I saw this one in their trailer storage area.
