This ones good interesting.
Talking w/HWH parts dept yesterday, I was chatting about custom bus conversions and add on slides. He said some gazillionaire in Australia is having an rv built. Already has something like 3 mill into it and just starting. 85'and multideck. This has to popup in news.

I wish. All I got is what the parts guy said. I'll be surprised if the media doesn't pick up on it and we see it on nat'l news.

Australia has some of the longest over-the-road freight haulers in the world. It wouldn't surprise me to see a 85' MH down there. Probably hinged in the middle.

You cannot believe the sizes of the rigs down there. Most freight companies are on the fringes of the towns because the rigs cannot navigate the streets and bridges. Aussies joke that the reason we call our trucks "Semi's" is because they are half size! The greatest adventure is driving down some dirt outback road and seeing a dust cloud ahead and realizing that soon you will have to make room for a truck. Right then you look for a place to pull off the road while he passes!

In Australia do they call these things "Road Trains"?
