Great to see the innovation. We are seeing innovation coming from offshore in this segment: Pebble Flow from China, Evotrex from China and now Base Station from Japan. Meanwhile except for LightShip, the American RV industry is rooted into the last century. Same evolution we have seen in the US automobile industry except for Tesla.

Kind of tight with the pictures there, aren't they? Only two, and both from the same angle and about the same distance.

Clearly early stage vaporware CGI renderings. They are testing the response at tow cost. Good marketing research. On the other hand Evotrex shows up at CES with a clearly well refined, production intent prototype. The Chinese are serious about getting into the US RV market.

Projected to cost from 20 to 40k. The towability will make it popular with the young folks. Most of these kids don't have an Abrahms Tank/ Truck in the driveway or sitting in the Apartment Bldg. parking lot.
