Ridiculous Motor Homes

Saw this on Yahoo (yeah, I am one of those guys that uses Yahoo). Here is the link as there were many more pictures.

I think I will stick with my Jayco.

I've seen a few "unusual" ones in campgrounds. Generally owned by the friendliest folks.

I have seen the western tv one locally where I live. Owned by the RV store if I'm not mistaken. Does not look any better close up.

Saw this one in Edinburgh, Scotland over the summer. I thought it was pretty cool.

We spotted this motor home in Alaska in 2012. Each one of those windows is a separate sleeping compartment. Sort of like a honey comb.

You mean this one? I don't think it was made for sleeping though.

There are a lot of crazy early motor homes, Here is a few more;

This last one is very well documented, they drove it from New York to San Francisco. The house car “gypsy van” was built in 1915. It weighed 8 tons built on a 3 ton Packard truck/bus chassis and had an interior like an English manor house.

I’ve seen some motorhomes that were real losers, but this one’s definitely a wiener! Especially when you see it in person!
