How about this for storing a "run about"?

OK, that's cool.  Where do you keep the extra toilet paper?

Is it just my imagination or are the pumpkins and potted shrubs hiding the fact that the bus tires are sitting on blocks to make room to get the toy out.

  Maybe that is to counteract the fact that the air bags are deflated.

In the first pic it looks awfully low to the ground.

In two pictures it appears to be off the ground. I would assume with a hydraulic leveling/jacking system.

To me it looks like in the second picture the coach is jacked up on rams, then they placed the pumkins there in the third picture to hide that fact.
Still too much for me to even dream about, that car in the bay is worth more than I have in my bus!
And someone told me that you have to actually buy lotto tickets to win, go figure.

Back when I was considering a Double decker conversion, I ran across this site http://www.jexcar.com  Unfortunately, I seem to have the same issues of not winning the lottery, Do you really have to buy those tickets   ::) 
Anyhow, my wife decided that if I eventually wanted to forgo the Coach, I could just get a 5'r.  She said that she thought the '53 was Adequate http://www.jexcar.com/53' celebrity.html  :o I still like the "Popups"  Hmmmmmmm ::)   A Popup Coach?!?!

If I won the lottery, I would either get one of those motorhomes built on a Freightliner Columbia chassis (or similiar truck chassis), or a new motorhome shell from Prevost, MCI, or the new Eagle.  I'm not sure if I would do my own conversion or get a professional conversion.  I don't like the glitz in most professional conversions, so I would have to find someone that could do very custom work.

If I won the lottery, the only thing I'd do different is actually work on my bus!  ;D

IF I ever won the lottery, I'd let Susan quit her job! Heck, I get bored sitting at home waiting for her to get here! I mean there's only so much a man can do around the house by himself. Judge Judy is starting to look pretty good! NOT!  ;D

Ace,

Judge Judy?   Man you are bored........

If the H340 is done, you can always start a 45'     sound good!

Gotta find something to keep your mind sane....
