ELKHART, Ind. (AP) — Recreation vehicle officials say a shortage of drivers to deliver RVs is the reason for growing backlog on manufacturers’ lots in northern Indiana.

Dianne Farrell, vice president of government affairs with the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association, estimates 25,000 to 30,000 RVs are awaiting delivery because about 2,000 drivers are needed, The Elkhart Truth reports (http://bit.ly/1eJcnv2).
