RE: trivia

yes jim he did creat the first MH ,, but he was not the founding father of the MH ,, and the one that actually produced it ,, ;) ;)
Here is another clue ,, the first MH that "ray" (last name with held at this time) ,,was a travco on a dodge chassis ,, and a well know CBS personal used it for their remote locations ,, agian (CBS name with held)
:) :) :) :)
I guess with that clue ,, i kinda gave it all away ,, if u all do a search on it ,, but i will still wait and see :approve: :approve: :cool: :cool:
Oh yea since the cat is outta the bag now ,, if u all do ,, do a wilkipedia search ,, type in ,, "father of the Motor Home " it will tell all ,, :approve:
Just thought this would be kinda fun ,, and now since i kinda told all ,, (it did last 3 days ) ,, anyway ,, it would be nice for more of u to come up with something like this ,, it will take away our winter boardom when it comes around :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :disapprove: :disapprove: :disapprove:

And actually he came up with the idea in 1953 built it himself ,, then in 1962 he contacted dodge ,, and in 1965 it went into production ,, but only 1,000 were ever built :eek: :eek: :eek:
