    My dad met and worked with him for a very short time when he tried to sell RVs. Been forever, that dudes probably still alive and kicking haha

    The end line in that video is classic. Obviously he knew rv’s were pieces of shit

    Fun but a total waste of money my cousin has one and it is constantly broken

    Screw, cheap wood, and glue. RVs are the worst thing you can spend money on short of burning it

    Totally, the glue they use on em is shit glue. I used to sell some to an rv manufacturer in AZ. They use a glue stick, and refuse to use the formula that cures with contact to oxygen, ensuring it wont remoisten with heat. Nope dont wanna spend the money on the right product. We stopped selling it to them cause we were afraid of a lawsuit.

    I was told by a few RV techs to just rent one if you need it.

    I live in an RV and have for about 12 years because I work all over the country. They all suck no matter how much you spend on them. It only chalks up to how big the turd is you are pulling.

    Post some pics of your RV, gotta see this thing now.

    I’ve always wanted to buy a retired school bus and build one out of it.

    Trailer and the new tow pig. I usually have the wife drive the Toyota to keep miles down on my diesels.

    Damn. That is impressive.

    Have you ever considered towing the Tacoma behind it?

    I used to on short distance with my old set up but not this one. It is a little too sketchy plus that camper is 45' long. The whole triple tow isn't liked in a lot of places either, even though it is legal there are still cops who like to harass ya.

    That's pretty cool.
    my uncle is a semi driver he showed me a picture of a rig. The sleeper cap was huge big as a small apartment, and it had a small flat bed big enough for a 1st Gen to be on it. That's what I would do if I was you. And use the tacoma to hit up some trails or get food

    Yessir, I got my bed from him. James is a super bang-up guy. Wish I could've spent more time in Tahoe, I had to leave as soon as I loaded up so I could beat the clock to get to the Performance shop in Sacramento who rebuilt my Icons before they closed for the 4th of July.

    I have no current plans to go up there, but if there's something going on I could plan a trip.

    Hell if @Sperrunner ends up picking up the 6-Lug frame I'll come with him. Convoy up there.

    By the time you get here, all that will be left is a pile of rust.
