Thanks Jamie. I had seen reports that Roadtrek would be building the Grand Canyon Class B for Hymer, but that Hymer purchased the entire Roadtrek company is news to me. Admittedly good news since I've been waiting for a Euro presence in North America for a long time.

From the article it sounds like Hymer will be expanding manufacturing in Canada to include a third plant which will include the "larger motorhome". I hope that by larger motorhome they mean a 22 to 26 foot Class A like those popular in Europe. I also hope they don't Americanize it too much since we already have those to choose from.

A third factory, also in Kitchener, will also go into production for other models, like the larger motorhome and the towables.
