Westfalia is now a subsidiary of Daimler Benz, and their ties to Volkswagen
are nowhere near what they once were.  VW now designs and builds their own
T5 camper in Germany.  I would assume that if a U.S. made VW camper ever
became a reality, it would be outfitted either by VW themselves or a U.S.
company.
