PART I
Item 1. Business.
--------
On August 21, 1996 The CIT Group Securitization Corporation II (the
"Company") sold $88,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Class A-1 6.00% Asset
Backed Notes; $75,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Class A-2 6.40% Asset
Backed Notes; $62,600,000 aggregate principal amount of Class A-3 6.65% (the
"Notes") and $14,400,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.10% Asset Backed
Certificates (the Certificates"). The Certificates have the benefit of a Reserve
Account. The Notes and Certificates were offered for sale to the public pursuant
to a prospectus supplement dated August 14, 1996 to a prospectus dated July 24,
1996 (the "Prospectus").
The Certificates represent an ownership interest in the CIT RV Trust
1996-B (the "Trust") and the Notes represent obligations of the Trust. The Trust
was created, and the Certificates were issued, pursuant to a Trust Agreement,
dated as of August 1, 1996 (the "Trust Agreement"), between the Company and
Mellon Bank (DE), National Association, as owner trustee (the "Owner Trustee").
The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 1, 1996 (the
"Indenture"), between the Trust and The Bank of New York, as indenture trustee
(the "Indenture Trustee").
The Trust's only business is to act as a passive conduit to permit
investment in a pool of retail consumer receivables.
Item 2. Properties.
----------
The property of the Trust consists of a pool of simple interest retail
installment sale contracts secured by the new and used recreational vehicles
financed thereby (the "Contracts").
All of the Contracts were acquired by the Company from The CIT Group/Sales
Financing, Inc. ("CITSF") pursuant to the terms of a Purchase Agreement, dated
as of August 1, 1996, and sold by the Company to the Trust pursuant to a Sale
and Servicing Agreement, dated as of August 1, 1996 (the "Sale and Servicing
Agreement"), among the Company, as seller, CITSF, as servicer, and the Trust.
Information related to the payment on the Contracts by the obligors under
the Contracts is set forth in the 1996 Annual Statement of Trust filed as
Exhibit 99.3 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
-----------------
In June, 1995, a suit, Harvey Travis et al. v. The CIT Group Sales
Financing, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. CV-95-P-1544-S, was filed in the
United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama, against
CITSF, its force-placed insurance carrier and another lender. Plaintiffs in this
action allege primarily that force-placed insurance coverage on manufactured
homes was placed by defendants in a manner which caused plaintiffs and other
borrowers to be charged or assessed for excessive premiums and that there was
inadequate disclosure regarding certain fees charged and commissions earned in
connection therewith. In their complaint, plaintiffs ask that a class action be
certified, with the class to be comprised of individuals against whom monetary
charges alleged to be excessive have been assessed and/or collected by CITSF
and/or the other defendants for the purchase of force-placed insurance in
connection with consumer installment transactions with CITSF and/or the other
defendants.
<PAGE>
The class allegations in the Travis suit have been dismissed. Mr. and
Mrs. Travis subsequently brought the same suit as individuals. This case has
been settled.
The registrant knows of no other material pending legal proceedings with
respect to the Trust or involving the Trust, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee, the Company or CITSF.

Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the
provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Independent Auditors' Report
The Board of Directors
The CIT Group/Sales Financing, Inc.:
We have examined management's assertion about The CIT Group/Sales Financing,
Inc. (the Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of The CIT Group Holdings, Inc.,
compliance with the minimum servicing standards identified in the Mortgage
Bankers Association of America's Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers (USAP) as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996 included in the
accompanying management assertion. Management is responsible for the Company's
compliance with those minimum servicing standards. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on management's assertion about the Company's compliance
based on our examination
Our examination was made in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included
examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company's compliance with the
minimum servicing standards and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a
legal determination on the Company's compliance with the minimum servicing
standards.
In our opinion, management's assertion that the Company complied with the
aforementioned minimum servicing standards as of and for the year ended December
31, 1996 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
Management's assertion herein relates to the application of these minimum
servicing standards as they apply to loans serviced for others by the Company,
except for the GNMA Defaulted Manufactured Housing Master Subservicing contract.
Management has issued a separate assertion on the application of these minimum
servicing standards as they relate to the GNMA Defaulted Manufactured Housing
Master Subservicing contract. Such assertion stated that the Company complied
with the aforementioned minimum servicing standards, except for certain items of
non-compliance relating soley to the GNMA Defaulted Manufactured Housing Master
Subservicing contract during a portion of the year ended December 31, 1996 which
primarily related to a subservicer and that the Company was in compliance with
all minimum servicing standards as of December 31, 1996. Our opinion on
management's assertion, dated March 12, 1997 related to the USAP minimum
servicing standards as applied to the GNMA Defaulted Manufactured Housing Master
Subservicing contract as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996 states that
their assertion is fairly stated, in all material respects.
