This is an interesting youtube article, it describes that an American company is going to produce the Eriba touring under licence in America. They will be offering a version that does not have a poptop and it will have aircon mounted in the roof That would be interesting to see.



When I go on holiday I like to pop my top!

It's an Eriba, Jim, but not as we know it.

Hi John.
I passed on your find to our friends on the Eriba Pucks in the USA Facebook group and one guy in particular is very excited by it all. He's replied with this:-

From the Eriba bit of that article:

"Van buyers can have a bedroom that is capable of expanding the scope of the lifestyle, into full families, while still embracing the principles"

Now that is precisely why we got an Eriba.

I think.

Looks suspiciously as if someone has been busy with Google Translate. Maybe it meant more in the original language, whatever it was...

Excellent, it would be nice to have a few more American Eriba friends from over the pond...

I love the bit about buying one as a bedroom for the children to tow behind the RV. It's a different world over there.

Did I miss something or was there really no mention or sight of the word Eriba in it?

Poor old Eric wasn't even mentioned in the design stage.

Sorry, the message along with one photograph reads:-

Bill Nieman
10 hrs
Just came from the Seattle RV Show. They were taking deposits for Hymer North America's version of the 550GT, selling for $30k. And the gal I talked to said they will offer a Touring 310 & 320 equiv, and one more model she didn't know about
.

Not shown in the link is the follow on discussion :-


Bill Nieman One other dealer, who sells RoadTrek, told me that they will be selling these trailers under the name of Hymer and RoadTrek so as to expand their dealer network. Same trailers though.

Harriet Watson So they're all going to have different names depending on who sells them?

Bill Nieman Different brand names, yes.

An interesting and practical attitude,

We don't care what you call them as long as you sell them.

Along the line in the second hand market that will be bound to cause confusion.

I think they are missing a trick, part of the ownership of having an Eriba is the heritage that comes with the Eriba brand....

Maybe In America the Eriba brand is not very well known.
