We did a week in Yellowstone a few weeks ago.  There was exactly one Westy joining us one night. We counted fifteen on the road over the week.  About half of those were in the park. Sprinters seem to be the new Westy. There were at least five of them in t each campground we were in.  Every night. From home conversions of $3k used commercial vans to $130k Winnebago types.  At first I was envious, until I remembered that my Adventurewagen will be worth a grand or so more next year. Their Sprinter a grand or so less.
