Since the option lists...

People have a knack for tearing them up when they sit on the lot. Dealers who hold their price too long end up with a beat up unit at a high price. Guess that's why I've always ordered. Very few...

You can't have too much light. The skylight is a very desirable feature. It comes with an integrated sun shade for those days you don't want it, along with a screen as well. It's a ton of...

I read your post and I don't agree with your nonsensical rationalization of their kludge of a design.

Sorry, I thought I heard 12.8. Doesn't really effect my point - as I was more concerned with it coming on at 12.1.

Granted, the curve on lithiums is flat for a much longer time, with a crash in...

Here's a video review of the new Hymer that the Russo's did.

I think their trailer line is alot more exciting. They will have a market segment virtually to themselves as there is nothing quite like it. If priced right, they could be enormously popular.

Well, for those of you interested, you can calculate how heavy your poo and pee is. I'd estimate that it's around 9-10 lbs per gallon.

So this will weigh 35-40 lbs when full (4 gallons).

Reminds me of the Airstream Basecamp. Those were pretty cool, but did not sell well and discontinued in 2008.

I can't imagine Jim following thru on that. It violates franchise laws in quite a few states.

From the early articles with the Hymer executives, it was clear that their target is tag-alongs. Those are next in the pipeline and they did not mention class c's at all.

If these sell well, they will make a lot of money - the margins must be pretty good if they are using the cheapest model van and standardizing the equipment package.

I'm pretty impressed with the...

I'd say that Hymer is a much better fit in the NA market than they would be in Australia. A very high percentage of our owners take their RV's to commercial RV parks and State/Federal parks that...

Well, I have 2276 happy customers, and 62 a-holes I've had to remove. I'll put my track record up against Mike & Co. any day.

And no, not a single disparaging comment about WGO has been removed....

My guess is that the expectation for the business is that the trailers will be where the money is. So being made an executive over that part is more prestigious & valuable.
