I recently received the Reimo catalogs from Steve and it's pretty
impressive.  One catalog is 284 pages and the other is 160 pages, full of
all sorts of Vanagon and EV camping interiors (mostly EV),
roof/bumper/hatch racks (including Paulchen), popout and sliding windows,
fridges, stoves, etc, and of course those neat tents.  If the quality is
anything near that of Westfalia, we're in for a treat if there's a way for
it to come into the US market.  For now, it's enough to browse the catalogs
and drool.  The catalogs are in German, but for those of us masochists who
love looking at things we can't have (including the very nice Mercedes
van), it's pretty unbeatable stuff.  I didn't think there was anything that
could make me more envious than not being able to import a late model Land
Rover that I could have bought for a song and dance while my wife was going
to school in the UK, this comes close.
