Ok,

two things to clear this up...

1. its not a Thomas Cook, but a James Cook
2. they are assembled in Wiedenbrueck, Germany and only the rooftops are put on the Van Body in the US and some Airstream specific extras are installed. I am pretty sure that as the roofs are not mounted when arriving in the US it might have some tax advantages as it is an uncompleted product. So putting the roof on it in the US makes it complete and roadready...

hope this helps to clear this up...
