Hymer is a big well-respected company that has purchased a number of European brands too. Those brands continue to be built under their original names in Europe. Hymer isn't stupid. Roadtrek is a known brand in North America. The Hymer name was added to the side of the Roadtrek factory... it did not replace the Roadtrek name.
Those of us who have purchased Roadtreks in the last few years are hoping that being owned by a company with the reputation of a high quality builder will bring back the quality control that RT used to be known for... but has slipped quite badly while owned by an "investment company" which was more concerned about pushing out as many rigs as possible in the shortest period... letting the dealers and purchasers deal with all the problems.
Many of us feel that this is very good news for Roadtrek and Class B's.
Most likely won't make a bit of difference since they will be to busy recovering from their investment. Will drive the cost of used ones up.
