Robert not everybody thinks the same, I am now on my second Canadian FW and very happy as are many others. We will be bringing it back next year, they have issues but so do Australian build, Jayco stopped building as they obviously were not selling that great. There is also the issue that more and more peaple are finding with the Australian pickups not having a large enough payload for the size of trailers people want now. I hope all is well with you and yours.

Frank, you are very much the exception to the rule. Jayco could not sell them as they implied you needed to get a different tow vehicle, dumb move on their part. Move by the Caravan sellers instead to get their customers wants and get someone to build to their needs, is a much smarter move. If this works expect to see others do the same.
Getting 5th Wheelers beyond the niche level(for US readers, they are a smaller niche than TC's in Australia) Of the 6 or 7 builders, they are gradually getting momentum, opening Facebook sites. Trying to get interest has been harder than pulling teeth.
These FBpages emphasis towability by local Asian sourced Pickups
