Because of different safety regulations that would have to be met, electrical system changed out from 220v to 110v. Exorbitant shipping costs and costs associated with meeting different specs from Europe to US.
Not practical to ship and convert European spec T@Bs. Would require a mountain of paperwork and expense.

I thought that I read somewhere that Little Guy was going to price them somewhere around $13-15K which is why the $20K price was such as shock. Maybe $20K for a T@B imported from Germany (an XL please) but not for a clone. Again, I will continue to beat the dead horse - why isn't anyone importing T@B's from Germany into the US market?

One of the guys there told me one of the reasons they stoped making T@Bs is because Forest River could turn out R-pods $2000.00 cheaper. Of course Dutchman also had problems getting parts from Europe but $20,000.00 for a Little Guy built T@B. That's just crazy. I thought we paid too much several years ago for a new 08' Queen. For all of us with a THOR / Dutchman T@B... smile, because we not only set the trend, we did so at what looks to be the best price. Good luck to Little Guy because I think they're nuts. Do you know what kind of used camper I can buy for $20,000.00? I could be wrong but if you need the spare parts folks, get them quick because I don't see this as a long term production run. Little Guy has priced this camper not to sell. Oh wait... I just saw where all the cabinet knobs are solid gold. That explains it. LOL!
