It’s been a while since I did a blog about oddball RVs and some folks have asked if I had any new ones to share. As a matter of fact, I do! Here are several that readers have sent me or I’ve found online.
We’ll start with a real oldie, an expanding RV from 1934, according to the only information I could find on it, but I bet my buddy Al Hesselbart from the RV Museum knows what it is.
This one is for my pal Ron Speidel, who really likes Airstream trailers. I have no idea where he’s going to find enough butter for that toast!
High gas prices got you down? Maybe you need one of these!
I’ve seen some weird bus conversions in my time, but I think this schoolie Bill and Kris Osborne spotted at Green Lake State Park in Campbellsville, Kentucky takes the prize.
Our friend Phyllis Schell sent me a picture of this colorful Class C she saw in Cottonwood, Arizona a while back.
I’ve always been impressed with how creative people who build housetrucks are.
Could this be an Amish RV?
Have you ever seen a four wheel drive Jeep camper before?
Here’s one for my buddy Tom Westerfield, who loves anything associated with railroads.
This bus and trailer combo reminded me of a jack o’lantern.
Let’s go camping!
You could park this three wheeled motorhome just about anywhere!
A reader saw this flower power RV at a WalMart in New Mexico.
Jim Hamm in Prescott, Arizona sent me a picture of this strange contraption.
And last, but certainly not least, I absolutely love this rustic wood covered motorhome.
Have you entered this week’s Free Drawing for an audiobook of Longnecks & Twisted Hearts, the third book in George Weir’s excellent Bill Travis mystery series, yet? I’m a big fan of everything George writes and I think you will be too, once you have a taste of his Texas tales. All you have to do is click on the Free Drawing link and enter your name in the comments section at the bottom of that page (not this one). Only one entry per person per drawing please, and you must enter with your real name. To prevent spam or multiple entries, the names of cartoon or movie characters are not allowed. The winner will be drawn Sunday evening.

Unfortunately we didn’t get a picture of it but a few years ago camping at Lake Shelbyville at Lone Point we witnessed some guys pulling a horse trailer with a pop-up attached to the top of the horse trailer, they used an extension ladder to get up there and if I remember correctly they had a deck on it also. They commented that when they went to horse shows it made it easier to have everything all attached. It was quite the site. Thanks for sharing all the other unique set-ups. Made my day.
We just saw that last one in Homer, Alaska yesterday.
The bus and trailer combo that reminded you of a jack o’lantern, is actually yellow and green. Oregon Ducks football fan owners use this to take people to home games (Eugene, Oregon) in the bus and the trailer is a tailgater’s dream. It resides in the park from the first to the last home game of the football season, along with their Prevost motorhome used for their stay. It is beautiful!
The fourth one down is the Scholl Bus. You can read their blog here: http://theschollbus.com/
When I click on the link below, got a warning from Avast, that it prevented something harmful from happening to my computer. Probably a false warning.
