You mentioned the seating and by consensus the Sprinter seats are better than Promasters. I don't think I am out of line in my assessment. Also, the Roadtrek Chevies can be had in your desired length...

That parking spot George showed looks to be 20 ft and is more an exception than standard unless Canada has different standards than the USA. The standard parallel parking markings are anywhere from...

Maybe those Europeans had no idea what they would encounter. ;) I suspect there are a lot more Europeans shipping their RVs here to travel than Americans shipping RVs to Europe to travel. If we did,...

We have way more and better campground infrastructure for dumping. We really don't need cassettes. Then you have to dump your gray water anyway and I don't ascribe to the belief you can do that...

I wonder if that is on purpose. I couldn't get the Hymer rep to find the key to pull the cassette out at Glendale last spring. I'd love to see them demonstrate a full cassette. Few women of...

The Hymer Aktiv should be about the same size in height as the Roadtrek Zion SRT I think.

The Airstream Westfalia was indeed a good product. That was over a decade ago and I think more innovative than Hymer today and the quality was better than the Aktiv I inspected in Phoenix. But keep...

Seems to me there is a lot of speculations and assumptions. The big assumptions have been for the most part Hymer Group good and Roadtrek team bad.

Heck, I could assume Hymer Group inflexible and...

There was an Aktiv in Phoenix and one in New York on public display. Why wouldn't Wendland make a video? There were some glitches to be worked out. For one, Hymer evidently didn't understand how...

Keyne, Greg describes it fairly well. Alternate systems would be desirable if traveling unconventionally in a B, or possibly thinking of taking a trip down to Patagonia. I pointed out how I saw...

I am not sure why you cast about for something other than the tried and true most all know works.

I've never seen anyone dump in a campground toilet. Many campgrounds specifically forbid it. However, I have seen many trailer and truck campers wheel a cassette down to a dump station everyone else...

I bet Jim Hammill has probably told those Hymer Group Germans they are fishing in the wrong pond or any North American pond with that cassette toilet in a $100,000 RV.

Canadreams out west especially in the Jasper/Banff area had a big rental presence with Pleasure-way Excels. They mirrored the Bavy Boomers when I saw them.

The Jucy renters seem to be the younger...

I agree with Wincrasher. These companies seem to want to grow the market beyond near retiree empty nesters and retirees. At $100,000 it is not going to happen. Aktiv is an obvious name attempt but...
