Yes, saw one last weekend. Looked like a skunk coming out of a garbage can. Small EV front sticking out of a BIG box that says I'm fat and expensive and I waddle. The Westy-look is no more! It falls into the same category as 1/4 ton Toyota pickups with similiar tumour growths on their backside, butt ugly. Didn't go inside, it was private, not at a dealer. My wife was not impressed by the eyesore either. While there are few real alternatives to a Westy, there are lots of choices similiar to the Rialta. Doubt it will grab a big market share. IMHO! I have seen the next size Westy, built on VWs LT15 or LT28 trucks, Audi 5 cyls up front, rear drive. These are impressive beasts, standing headroom with a 6" hightop, beds are across the beast, real 'living-room' feel due to the open space inside. This would have made a better 'Rialta'. Again IMHO. Want one of those next, for really extended touring. Tim Smith
