Love the photo of "the" original RV...
Roland R. Conklin's "Gypsy Van," built in 1915, which carried a party of 10 on a transcontinental trip. The New York Times described it "like a house on wheels. Has shower bath, stove, cupboards, ice chest, and closets enough to satisfy most women." LIBRARY OF CONGRESS |
Fantastic! It all can be fixed with a couple of wrenches and screwdrivers. But where is the big chest for the spare fuel pumps, generators, carbs, bearings, and where are the spare tires and tubes? Yet if you actually had this in good shape it would be worth one hell of a lot more than the original purchase price. Thus making it a very good if not the best RV investment. It is the perfect example of hindsight How is your rig fairing in increasing in value? For the ones who don't know, it is a rhetorical question and well we are all most likely sunk there.
