The yellow one must be USA, as only the Yanks will fit a "slider" to any thing on wheels , like all their RV'S :shock:
You should get the bottom one, and enter it as is into the "Show & Shine" competitions, you will always win the lowest "Slam" section.

That unusual air intakes may indicate it's from Australia?
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).

Yes, both those buses are right-hand drive, and have Aussie air intakes, so most probably from Oz. I've never seen a slide-out campt like that. Where did you find the pics?
