Old RVs don’t need to retire

Here’s a photo showing that older RVs don’t need to retire. This 24-foot 1989 Ford / Vanguard has taken us to places as diverse as Fairbanks and Inuvik, San Diego, Key West and Halifax. Those with elementary geography will notice there’s quite a bit of territory between those towns. We added a pair of propane fuel tanks so it drives on dual fuel for a range of over 400 miles. Here I photographed it near Red Rock River in Montana five years ago.

Just south of Kananaskis, Alberta

"This is my 1974 Chevrolet Contestoga. She is built on a ton and a half chassis (so I was told) and she comes equipped with a 350 and automatic transmission. Since this photo I have completely redone the interior in a Bohemian/Romanian Gypsy trailer design. I'm surprised how well she travels down gravel roads and in the back country. I found this nice little spot by the river and set up camp. Her 22 ft. body give my dog and I ample room to cook and sleep."

Off into the sunset

"Stopped on the side of the road, almost sunset, leaving the park. This was one sunset on a 9,600-kilometre road trip."
