Andrew :
needs a bit of trim work to make it look a bit nicer, but the concept is sound. I can see this as a cheap way to build a mobile home or camper.
Agreed.
Hopefully its well insulated, otherwise it may be a bit drafty at highway speeds… “Honey I’m home!!!!! Slow down for a sec!”
What I’m loving is the orange extension cord that runs from whatever that is in the bottom right corner and then goes OUTSIDE to run under the door. Seriously. All that fine, fine custom woodwork and they couldn’t find a way to run the cord inside the wall?
Did anybody notice the attractive extension cord tucked neatly from door to… well, hole next to the door? I find myself wondering what this could possibly be purposed for? And actually I disagree about the purpose of this creative vehicular attachment- I think it’s a mobile deer hunting stand.
its a portable hunting blind i love cause as long as u are of the road the dnr cant blame u for road hunting. needs a lift kit and some big tires for really getting to good hunting spots.

It’s obviously for a popcorn maker. I hope they thought to put a switch at the plug end!
wow, I actually know what this is….It’s a projection truck, used for outdoor movie nights and such. There is a projector inside, back it up, plug it in, open the window and yes…cinema.
I saw one of these on the Mall in DC a few weeks ago.
hehehe … reminds me when I was a 23 and SUVs were the new thing. My dad told me I wasted my money on my when I could have simply opened up the area between the cab and a topper.
He was serious. I think this is his long lost brother.
I see nothing wrong with this image, this looks just like a genuine mobile DIY ice fishing shelter, door opens inwards most likely to highway transportation restrictions. This photo would not likely attract as great of attention if it was captured in season.
The final solution to the JW problem.
I was thinking molester but I guess serial killer works too.
Am pretty sure I saw the air conditioner back at mile-marker 31. I doubt it’s worth retrieving at this point though.

What no draps? Cheap.
TBH if this was a last resort for someone that has been foreclosed on, I think they are far better off than most in that position.
Agreed.

looks like he needs a retractable ramp to make it easier to get in and out!
haha that would be great!

So THIS is what’s on the other side of the door in the hall!!!
If they had left the doors on to cover the front of the “house”, they wouldn’t get charged RV fees at the campground.
Some T1-11 siding would finish this cabin off nicely but the stoop is far too shallow for my plastic chair and cooler.
A mail-box on the step would make a nice home-y touch.
A side ladder and you get a rooftop deck! Just had synthetic lawn carpeting and flamingos and it’s a premium condo on wheels!
@Paddy
Hah! brilliant. No wonder they didn’t let us submit videos. It was rigged I tell you.
It needs a window box with some nice zinnias in it or something.
D.I.Y. R.V!
That doggie door looks like it was designed by Darwin himself.
There goes the neighborhood. Literally.

If this truck’s a-rockin’ don’t come a-knockin’
can the door actually open outward? i would think it would get stuck on the overhang. mobile home win nonetheless.
“This wasn’t what I expected when she said I could drive her home.”
Now THAT is a mobile home!
My first post here. To me the really interesting thing is that some where there is a house missing its front.
Now the Door-to-Door salesman have to chase down the doors.
Wow, a mobile home that’s actually mobile. Kudos (I guess).
50 bucks theirs a kebab shop inside there.
It’s obviously for a popcorn maker. I hope they thought to put a switch at the plug end!

Them dang motorised Gypsies…
Looks like home sales are really starting to accelerate.
Is this a Tumbleweed? http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com It looks like since Jay made the big time his craftsmanship has really gone downhill…
And when he gets back to the house, he can just drive through that square hole in the front and park… and nobody would be the wiser.
(btw- welcome)
@sai cheez
The door is recessed with no visible hinges; accordingly, it would open inward.
I think they should extend the mud flap and use it as a welcome mat.
Also, add burglar bars to the window. No need to become a victim of highway robbery.
@sai cheez: I’m guessing it opens inward. Which is silly for this design, but then, it’s a bit silly to begin with.
Clearly it’s bigger on the inside.
I’m thinkin’ Burning Man, for some reason.
Second … Burning Man … and it’s brilliant. Not as good as a dome, but cool.
This would be a $2200/month studio apartment in Manhattan. But if you parked it in Brooklyn, maybe $1750.

FEMA stealing another trailer.
@Drewsky
all it needs is a lift gate-instant porch!
at least he can make a clean getaway when the religious nuts come knocking at his door
The door opens inward, you can tell by the jam molding around the outside. At least the window is mounted in the normal manner.

Uh, where’s the license plate?
Who needs the kitchen sink when you can pack your entire house?
There’s a lot to be said for “Pride of Ownership”!
Wonderfull! Keep on dreaming!
I love the weather stripping around the window, and then the big hole at the bottom right.
I can see my house from here!
now, THAT’S what i call a mobile home
Knock Knock
redneck camper
Saw another very like this yesterday at the CartM recycling Center in Manzanita, Oregon.
