Where's the box truck chase vehichle that carried all that pretty stuff on the WOODEN PATIO ? I really feel like I was cheated in life. While I've been called a fool before I never had 1/2 mil to waste on something like that.

I'll bet they towed that onto that golf course with their F150 Ecoboost, "towed just fine!".
Speaking of that golf course I'd be pissed to have them tow that out there then cover that beautiful grass with their mat.
Looks like a converted horse trailer to me!
And may be politically incorrect but that guy looks like the type that couldn't hook up to shore power without help let alone do anything else. Has his legs crossed like a woman & a man bun.

"The island can also be moved outside or onto the trailer's deck for open-aired meals."
The one with an outlet installed in the picture? They must have a fancy system for that.
"Amenities like a washer and dryer, dishwasher, extra sleeping loft, and oven come optional"
250k with no oven hah.
I do like all the solar though.
It would be fun to build a "money is no object" trailer. For me, it sure wouldn't look like this one.

You are just jealous because you don't have enough hair for an ultra cool man bun! I suspect that the over priced ugly in the pics is intended for the left coast wine sippers and may not be sold in Texas anytime soon.

Must not carry much water. In the photo captioned "The 2022 Living Vehicle trailer's media lounge." Apparently the lounging woman reading the book didn’t have enough water to wash her feet.

^^^^^
I suspect by the time those 2 "Living Vehicle trailer" owners figured up from down or come here from sic em they MIGHT figure out how to get water to wash "man buns friend's" feet. Maybe solar power is supposed to do it....?
That vehicle obviously makes no sense and will probably never be seen in TX as George noted, but, it DOES look like something folks like those in the article would like.....but I don't see those kinds of folks too often.....unless I go somewhere "outside my self imposed range"...

Someone ask about the F150 towing experience?....-lol
"Yes, towed just fine"
All I need to do now is cover the top of the Outback with solar panels?
On a lighter note I did notice a lot of TT's with a considerable amount of solar panels attached to their roofs this past weekend.[emoji848]

I must have missed the length. It does say that the RV offers 232 sqft of space. Doing the math, if the trailer is 8' wide, it would be 29' long and if it was 7' wide, it would be roughly 33' long. None of the photos show a slide, so unless they're "well hidden" it's a conventional "box trailer" with a fold down deck. I wonder if it comes standard with Trailer King tires ?????

Why did they have the guy cross his legs sitting at the table in the kitchen/ lounge area photo? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a guy cross his legs like that. I’m also loving the business clothes for in the bedroom/ office area. Best of all “20% of the trailer’s upcoming production slot was already sold during it’s pretty-release”. Yep, 1 of 5 was sold, but 20% sounds much better! (My made-up numbers, but I bet I’m not far off!)

So far I've sat back and let y'all make fun of my informational offering, made fun of man-buns, effeminate men with dirty feet and of people living in trailer houses on golf courses. But NOW, take THIS: I'll have you know that for $430K you get an all aluminum RV that is a FULL 29 feet long, even longer than our Forrest River Salem! AND, you will get an Incineration Toilet! For those of you less fortunate, it is a "waterless propane incineration toilet, 150 flushes on a std 5-gallon propane tank and up to 30 flushes per-day capacity!"
Now how about THAT, you heathens!

Watched a video on YouTube….there is a floor mounted electric socket..and the island has a “built in cable” to attach to the floor socket (extension cord) so you can power appliances on the island.
The people in the article and video are the husband and wife owners of the company making these.
They use materials and hardware that’s normally used in larger boats because it’s better quality.
They don’t believe in using awnings on the rv because they don’t think someone should have to pay for a major expense like an awning that could fail and have to be replaced lol ( but yet the rv itself is grossly expensive) …they said awnings need to be replaced almost every year …they also don’t believe in slide outs for the some of the same reasons
They come from a wealthy area of the country where everyone is trying to outspend their neighbor on Facebook and Instagram
What better way then to make a $100000 trailer and double or triple the price to make it exclusive ..the so called celebrity’s of the Instagram world will buy one of these to flaunt their wealth..
It’s no different then the Tesla’s were when they first came out.
As more and more people get them they will,move on to something else
It’s similar to the earth roamer overland rv’s
Also the dirty feet is to show you that they hardly ever work and god forbid have to put on anything other then sandals…lol they wear it as a badge of honor
Free spirit kinda people that are probably gonna do this for a few years to fund their travel budget.

And I would add that they probably would make just as much money selling more units for less money but that would go against their target customer.
That customer is willing to spend the extra 200k just so they know none of us country bumpkins will pull up to the boondock area in the same rig
It’s why they have 10k a night hotel rooms and 50k a week yacht charters…it would kill then to have to rub elbows with the common man and have something in common

I reckon there is a warning label next to the flame thrower commode saying not to have your derriere parked on the throne when you hit the ignition button.

That sounds like a much better option than saving the soiled tp in a bucket next to the toilet til full then burning it in the fire pit that's been mentioned here more than once. Talk about heathens!
