Default Do you hate camping? Then this is for you!

Nothing like getting away from it all by taking it all with you.

Now this is my kind of camping. Hell last time I went "camping" I took a TV and DVD player. images/smilies/tongue.gif

I was thinking 'ho-hum another RV', but then I saw the car 'drawer' - that's awesome

the surface you're standing on, might not always be level, so there most likely are jacks to make it horizontal (so you don't roll out of bed)

but, it was only jacked up in that pic... so I think it is to clear the car also.

Which is kinda cool... I supposed it won't work on grassy areas, but you wouldn't drive a merc on one either.

What cars can you fit in there, anyway? I doubt I can jam my Zonda in there. Either way, I just hope it can tow my Cigarette boat to the French Rivera, in comfort with my three mistresses.

Meh, waste of space. Everyone here just has a hitch on the front of their car and they tow it behind the RV or stick it on a trailer.

That interior actually looks a bit bland compared to some other one's I've seen. I guess the car and the Q branch modification took all their cash.
