Who we are
The faces behind the names
Points of interest:
The term "Carrying
Weight" is different to "Cargo Capacity"
When it comes to how much stuff you can take away on holiday the confusion between these two terms can make up to a 250kg difference.

About Us
In the Beginning:
Our venture into
fifth wheelers began in the mid 1980's when we purchased our first fifth
wheel in the
Why Hodge RV?
Hodge RV is a family business. We initially began our business by approaching an American manufacturer to make light weight units with Australian wiring and with doors on the correct (left) side. After gaining alot of knowledge and experience we began manufacturing our own models that are specifically suited to NZ and Australia.
Where we're going:
We began by supplying the NZ market with the view of exporting to Australia. We now have established ourselves within the Australian market with our fifth wheelers cruising around all areas of the continent. People appreciate the superior quality product we offer and our tasteful interiors. The ability to tow with a Japanese ute, without compromising on space and cargo capacity has put us ahead of the competition.
