Piku, you don't want to replace it with a 454. That will seem like a 100hp motor in that motorhome. Although I always think about for towing purposes.

In future this is what I plan to have possibly with a stacker trailer.


or this:

Rob,

My mom and husband have one very much like the second... no trailer though. That's an enormous combo, I'm still afraid just to test drive the RV itself. Most I ever drove was a 20 some foot uhaul. And I know it's slow. The diesels are like $35K though. F that. I'm just testing this idea out so I'm looking for a half life gasser... 50K-75K miles. I will be towing but only a motorcycle on my utility trailer though probably (if I can ensure the bearings will hold up to that)

Ryan, it's these guys http://www.castlemagic.com. Check it out. The caveat is that it's $150K for the BUILDING, you have to buy the land it sits on too. I wasted over an hour on that site before looking at pictures, prices, etc. I love the idea. What I love MORE though is buying an old missle silo. This is pretty much my wet dream...

Mark if that's all your doing a non-diesel would be fine. Diesels are a lot of money to upkeep but will last, and are best if hauling. A combo like the second one I showed will go anywhere from 100k-200k. And yes I would buy it haha. They hold value. I would be using it for racing all weekend, big money weekends, whatever it has to do with racing haha.

The pay rate is high for construction workers because it is expected that they wont work a full year. In the past the rate was priced as if they would work 75% of the year.

Funny thing of the day. The dumb chick that I work with was bouncing checks again earlier this week(she talks on her phone loud as can be at her desk, so everyone knows all of her business.). Anyway, she just got her hair done... I'm not talking just a quick cut. Complete style change, color, the whole deal. How retarded can you be when you can't pay you bills to spend $100+ easy on a hair cut.

End rant.


... and I still want a castle.
