I agree it's gorgeous but since it doesn't have 4WD or a manual transmission (both would be ideal), I am not interested. Oh well, now I can spend the 1/4 mil on something else (hahahaha). (Ok, that first sentence is true so even if I had the money, no thanks) LOL

I can't count either.


Hey! Tanks HAVE windows.
I was thinking more on the lines of a water tank. Clown

No doubt you could see lots of the scenery with that little French camper.  Top speed is aut 35 MPH

Yes, there would be a few small drawbacks. For one, I would need to learn the French language in order to know which cap (under the hood) is marked "Oil Fill". Also, I don't see any cup holders, in the pictures.

However, it's a small effort to save $240K.

Yeah, yeah David!  Do need some tasteful curtains to give a bit of privacy AND there would be enough money left over on the saviings end to purchase a huge brick of cheese to feed the mice inside that monster 2 cylinder (21 HP?) engine so you could make it up those long grades when traveling through the Rockies.

I'm thinking something like this would be more my speed:

Camper

With the $240K that I save, I could buy a mattress and a porta-potti. (Maybe some tasteful curtains, too!)

Keith, that is exactly what my wife said.  Being a daughter of a mortician, she said it would be like sleeping in a coffin, not for either of us thank you.  Indeed we will keep our rpod as well.
