Vixen (RV)

Common card · No. 331572

The Vixen is a recreational vehicle designed by William "Bill" Collins Jr. and built from 1986 until 1989. A total of 587 Vixen motorhomes of three different types were built: the Vixen 21 TD (1986–1987), Vixen 21 SE (1988–1989), and Vixen 21 XC (1986–1987). Often noted as the "Driver's RV", it has an exceptionally low center of gravity and wide stance for an RV. Sales information claimed a top speed of 100 MPH, and claimed an economy of 30 MPG (at 55mph, which was the speed limit in 1986) using a BMW M21 turbo-diesel engine. Wind tunnel testing was used to create a completely smooth fiberglass exterior top and bottom, resulting in a drag coefficient of less than .30 for early TD models.
