the rear-most of those vent / doors is probably for the generator.

RT put the genset under the rear bed for a time

We recently finished an 1800 mile trip from Arizona to Washington and only found a few Bs to sneak pictures of. Yesterday DW and I went to the grocery store in Port Townsend and out to lunch, this was the result, plus we saw several that drove by as we ate.

I just barely got this next one as he was passing by and my camera was in one hand.

Nice shots Wayne!

You've truly gone above and beyond with those captures!

Sad to say today, while touring in our 'Roadhouse', I missed out on two fabulous Class B Sprinter captures, both with-in a one mile radius of one-another in the town of 'Okeechobee' Florida.

The first of the two sightings was an 'MB Cruiser'. The second sighting was very hard to describe by manufacturer, due to the drivers distraction by having half his torso hang'n outta his window (gray haired bearded gent), waving ferociously at us as he whizzed by. I tried for the quick-ee U-turn at the first intersection, but oncoming stragglers killed @least two minutes of valuable U-turn/ catch-up time. DW & myself drove for at least five miles in the opposite direction for the catch-up!...but to no avail...

May-be next time...

How is this for one to end with?

I've got a special/nostalgic place in my 'B' heart for this one Wayne...



Incredible captures my friend!...judging by the rear bumper the seed has been planted...

I seem to have an affinity for these old broken down rigs. Could it be that we have something in common?

I may have used up my allotment of Bs in this area, only 2 yesterday.
These were supermarket parking lot catches.

I went to the store today and didn't see any B's. But then again we never see any in our area. Ok saw 2 last year in our town. Guess it's time to get on the road and find us some B's.

IMHO, the VW's can't hold a candle to the superior lines of this one Wayne!



In our neck-a-the-woods......I decided to abandon DW after sighting an aged 'Class B' parked in a small used car dealership nearly directly across from an Antique shop off US1. DW entered the shop as I gleefully drove away with hopes of a trouble-free 'B' capture...

With-out an ounce of fear or doubt in mind, I drove directly into the bizzare yet seemingly inviting entrance-way of the dealership...



I exited our ride then started snapping instantly



Out of the corner of my left eye I could see the pale image of a man learing over my shoulder



I drifted into B.S. mode almost immediately then told the salesperson?: "An eccentric friend of mine is interested in restoring such an RV"...I continued my last capture as the man offered this ride for $1000.00. He insisted the van drove well then offered to allow a test spin. I rounded the vehicle only to discover a front passenger side flat...
