I’ve seen piles of tailgating junk on Craigslist and then I laid eyes on this Patriots RV that looks like it’s seen one too many AFC Championship game. The outside of this road warrior doesn’t look that bad and the face mask is a nice touch. I’m not sure why there are wires all over the place, but we’ll call the outside a C+.
Then you open the side door and….all hell breaks loose.
Why is there indoor carpeting on the ceiling? Why is there a four-way lug wrench on the bathroom floor? Why does it look like the wood siding was ripped off a house and used as wallpaper in this thing? What the hell has this hellhole seen over the years?
And yet…I like it.
You’ll have to go into Maine to get it and the seller wants $1,000. That’s ambitious.
This is a 1984 Ford Econoline E350 with the 460 gas motor with auto transmission. It has about 69,000 miles. Repaired now, runs, just needs exhaust.
I’m willing to bet $1,000 that the odometer quick working at some point. There’s no way this thing has only seen 69k miles of road action. Maybe 269,000. Look, this is a dream come true for one season of Patriots football. You can’t ruin the RV. You can take a leak through the hole in the bathroom floor and call it a toilet. The best part here is that if it quits running at the tailgating lot, you just tell a junkyard to come get it. There has to be $500 in scrap here. You’re only out $500 that you won’t miss.
The memories will be worth it.
