I'm just trying to figure out the logistics of that hugh swing. Trying to picture on what sites I could have room for it to swing that wide and still have the length. Cannot imagine you could do it yourself, need a spotter on each side to ensure it doesn't hit anything.

I was thinking something similar... with all the weight being swung out out to the side... It would need outriggers at minimum 30% of the distance of the load. I did not see much of that in the four pods that dropped out from the frame.

Besides finding no RV parks that have the space to allow our rig to have slides on both sides... that would need to have two spaces together to fit.

Wow, how about a 30 foot wide campsite to park in. The cost has already been talked about.

I give them credit for a different approach to things. Not a real practical design as has been pointed out, but looks cool and it's innovative.

Biggest issue is I'd fall off the side when it's all opened up. Also, it sure would be exciting if that came unhinged while driving.
