Former Disney Monorail turned RV:
Looks like they may have added some taper when they finished off the rear end? Could do quite well aerodynamically.

When I saw one was for sale, my first thought was 'catamaran houseboat'.

Here is a Vixen turbo diesel for sale for $25k. Looks like a good one. Too much for me though. The guy has a good log of mileage and you see lots of 30+ mpg entries in there.

I'd like to have that, but I doubt I'd fit well. Being big has some drawbacks.

I've run across this a few times. Appears to be a one off by a boat manufacturer, the "Scorpio Land Yacht 37". Don't think I've seen it mentioned here at EcoModder.

My experiment is up for sale, back mods removed (they were too heavy anyway and causing weight balance issues). I want to build an Ebike and need money for battery and kit. Dang those batteries are pricey!

I left those wicked front bubbles on. I think they might have really worked plius they make the whole thing look more retro and cool IMO.

You never got around to making them light up like a Wurlitzer juke box.

One of these?
'Pix or it didn't happen'. 
What does it weigh? What size are the tires? Would you be into a little tuft testing?
