I saw Elvis’s old, abandoned jet that has been purchased and turned into a drivable RV! It was going down the interstate, and it’s quite a sight. I tried to get a side picture, but I couldn’t.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

I thought the big ass USA trucks had poor visibility. That thing is mennice.
I had the same reaction and I just poked at their YouTube channel. They have cameras for side, front and rear view, and they had a Sheriff check the entire build for safety and compliance. I'm not sure how safe it is overall, but it's safer than it looks.
Generally, it doesn't take a lot to make a vehicle road legal, depending on where it's registered. The basic requirements for a vehicle to be road legal in the US are:
On the outside of your car, street legal requirements include ground clearance, emission control systems, tires, brakes, bumpers, license plate, lights, hood, and windshields.
On the inside of your car, street legal requirements include seat belts, steering wheel, horn, and rearview mirror.
Different states have different specific requirements but the above requirements are generally country wide.
My understanding is this was done for content, not for real world use.
Almost looks like a souped up custom Weinermobile.
Y'know, I thought it was something like that when I was coming up on it. I was surprised when I found what it really was.
Apparently it's on its way to an airshow in Oshkosh.
...by gosh.
This might be the wildest thing I've seen on the platform
