Personally I'd love one, misses wouldn't, I think the idea is world road trip would suit this kinda thing.
If you could get that out whilst the whole thing is going down the motorway, I'd be really impressed!

my mates dad had a huge motorhome and a small everyday 4 seater car that he would tow on an a-frame when he went away, the motor home was taxed for 6 months in the summer then parked off road in the winter and would use his lo-tax hi-mpg car, instead of throwing money on runing a big car, just so that he could tow a caravan a few times a year,

plus towing somthing small with somthing big is safer than towing somthing big with somthing small,

If you can afford a huge motorhome, I doubt running a huge car is a major issue.

Technically everybody sat in the rear of a motorhome has to be in a proper seat and wearing a seat belt.... Motorhomes vary, in mine four people can do that whilst sat at the table, however many only have the front to back bench seats and they don't have belts.

Personally I always tried to keep the kids in the centre bed rather than the one up above the cab but once they became obnoxious teenagers they pretty much ran riot. There is only so much I'm prepared to do at 3am on a French motorway!

I'd rather drive that than pull a shed. Wouldn't have one quite so mahoosive though. I can definitely see the benefit of them.......maybe I'm getting old!!
