It is a super C & it is likely well within truck spec weight. Full marks to the creator. The bad news is the windage. A good blast of broadside wind & over she goes. Then there is the height issue & trees in campgrounds .

The picture is correct, but the post has the sizes skewed. Here it is again, properly scaled:



We could get fancy & make it limo height:



Or make it way more scary, height wise:



Here's a link to the image.

From looking at the full size image, if it's been photo-chopped, it's a pretty good job. I'd say it's the real deal.

Actually if you look at the front tire the shadow is closer then behind it. I would say the sun was almost overhead. If it was Photoshop you would see sunshine between the frame rails of the truck in the shadow. I would speculate this is a genuine redneck creation.

The left side shadow is straight. The roof on the 5th wheel is not straight.
Then there is the mirror shadow on the right cab door at a backward angle.
The shadow on at the left front shows the sun would be slightly to the rear.
And, why does the whole rig look so narrow?
I'm sticking with Photoshop. ๐Ÿ™‚

But, whatever works for ya! You would be the talk of the camp ground for sure!

Looks like one better go very slow around corners and turns...

Technically it would be a class C. It also looks to be somewhere around fifteen feet tall, which would be problematic on many fronts (both legal and practical).


It looks a little light in the front end and its DEFINITELY way too top heavy.

This in not a vehicle for snow covered mountain roads with low clearance tunnels. I'll walk and use my snow shoes, . . . . thank you!

I'll bet it would be a trick getting something up that loading ramp. Pretty fugly if you ask me. Maybe Jed Clampett's summer rig.

Creative - but too many steps to climb. Like a treehouse-on-wheels.
