The RV Rental... a 34 feet long, 12m+ high movable car. Complete with a dining table, a sofa, a queen size bed, a kitchen, and a full bathroom with shower. It's like a little house on wheels... what a cool vehicle.The transmission was pretty cool. It was all just buttons! One for N, R, D, and two arrows (Up and Down). To park, you would press the 'N' button, then pull a knob to put the breaks down. Oh, and the cruise control is key in this vehicle. The big metal gas petal takes awhile to get used to.
Driving it was definitely interesting. I felt like a truck driver. Only I didn't get to pull the horn... that would have been fun. Driving through the night, we took turns in this 14 hour+ marathon. For my shift, I was able to at some point able to pass:
- another RV
- a truck
- a minivan
- a sedan
on the highway :). Wuhahahaha! ...But a RV is really not designed to drive above 70mph. At 75 mph, it was pretty ridicous. For the most part, kept to a nice 65 to 70mph, and all was happy.
So the trek begins... onwards to Yellowstone!
