Difficult to park.  Horrible highway fuel economy.  OTOH.. throw in a cassette toilet and a foam mattress and presto, cheap RV registration.

Ad says "wherever you want to make it".  Maybe you are asking the wrong question?  :-p

Looks like a big, blue excuse to join a militia. Could make a great Patriot missile defense unit.

 

By the way, it’s a Ford isn’t it?

According to the ad it is a Cheverlot. 

 

Looks more like a Ford F700.

Make a toy hauler/Columbus chipper saw massacre parts recycler out of it.   The diesel alone may worth it.   Kinda looks like a Ford front end though.

Dammit.  I was going to come in and say that after seeing the headline.

 

I knew I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

Airplane! is a national treasure.

 

One of my fondest memories was that of my grandmother, in the last year of her life, watching Airplane! and laughing with gusto.  I know she had seen the movie before - hell, it was one of my grandfather's favorite movies - but it made me feel good to hear her enjoying it so much.

I got a response back to my inquiry about the roadworthiness of this majestic machine. It has not been run in a year and needs a tune up. This does nothing to dissuade me from looking at it.

It certainly is. They either don’t or can’t make ‘em like that anymore. Naked Gun was good too until OJ ruined the series!

The E36 M3's gonna hit the fan now!

Check the RADAR range!

I guess I picked a bad week to quit barbiturates.

It's an interrogative statement, used to obtain information, but that's not important right now!

I've got to concentrate!

Chump don't want no help, chump don't get no help!

It feels good to get that all out of my system.
