East to West vs Imagine

[SlimJim]

Just was noticing how similar the East to West RV line is to the GD Imagine line. For almost every model, there is a near identical version between the two manufacturers. Out of curiosity, anyone know who is copying who?

Forest River company, yes their 2600KRB Alta looks the same as a GDRV 2600RB Imagine. The CCC is twice the Imagine’s and it is lighter, so something seems wrong. The Alta line has some appeal.

Truth be told, we've found there really isn't that much variation in floor plans between manufacturers. There's only so much you can do with the same things everyone wants in their RVs.

Sure looks like a direct copy even down to the graphics.
