There were thousands of RV's there. Everything from pup campers to million-dollar Class-A's.
But THIS rig was my favorite. Had to take a few photos.




Flatbed extends to a back porch with a motorcycle carrier underneath.

Just don't get into tight quarters where tail swing will be a problem.

That's quite a rig! I like the back porch, and all the storage boxes too. Looks like he could fit the motorcycle in that huge compartment right behind the cab.

This is similar to a rig that I saw at Bandimere Speedway several years ago. Bandimere is a drag strip.

That rig did not have have the back porch but did tow a race trailer. The large storage compartment on the truck had a I-Beam that would slide out with a hoist. They kept their spare engine in that compartment. If needed they puled the race car along side and could then change engines.

Using the MTD they have lots of capacity for both payload and towing.

I don't see anyway to keep it on the truck. It must be bolted to the floor of the flatbed?. That is some porch he has. It's done up in a big way, huh?


Busy going when and where we want

I'll bet that is is very functional and it certainly won't be overloaded.
