I don't know if this is for real or not, but it looks ridiculous. Would it fit under any overpasses? This has got to be "built" on a computer. If it is real, it would have to be a rental at a campground. It's from the site - "awesomeinventions."
It's a joke made by AI, just like this one:

Imaging coming down Teton Pass outside Jackson Wyoming. If the curves don't get you the grade will.

Looks like an AI designed motorhome.

Ok I have to chime in this one again. First of all if this 'thing' is real. What a waste of money and for what ?
For many people how much somethings costs irrelevant. On weekends, I see "visitors" driving cars that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars as they visit their weekend mansions.

No, it's a real motorhome...I saw a video on it months back.
I don’t know if it’s real or no (although I doubt it)t…but considering it’s 20 or more feet tall it is basically not road worthy as just about every overhead overpass, power line, or traffic light is lower than it is…not to mention the stability problem. As a long time Raver…it doesn’t look like it has any ability to lower the top section. Its also too wide to be street legal and doesn’t have slides visible that could be retracted. Lengthwise it’s about 40-45 feet and that’s easily doable on the road, but the height and width are too much for road legal.

For long term traveling (months at a time)…an RV beats the pants off of any other way financially. Yes, it’s small compared to a house…but it really has all you need to live…if you want to go places and do things for extended periods. It isn’t for everybody…but for instance we averaged for 8 years under 1,000 a month for sites including utilities. We full timed for about 60K-70K a year, never thought that we were skimping on anything, and could have easily cut that by at least 1/3 if we needed to.

I don’t see how it can go very far. Not with overpasses on roads, and wires on others. I wonder how many gallons it gets to the mile (mgp)? It also has to be difficult to drive. Parking? Not for faint of heart.
That being said, it seems to have enough room for my wife, myself and our dog.

I would like to have one, but my wife is already concerned with me driving our 35' Winnebago Voyage at my age. I'm guessing it will be a hard no.

Overheads would definitely be a problem. The standard for overhead traffic lights is 16'. But there are many overpasses that are lower. And I am not even sure this beast could get under the traffic lights.

We have an Tiffin Allegro Bus which is 45 feet long and 13'6" high. There are times that my butt puckers when I have to go under an overpass or rail Tressel at times. The only place an RV like this would be possible to drive would be out in the desert or wide-open spaces where height would not be an issue an there would be no overhanging trees along the roadway.

That’s a lot for ten sets of tires and brakes to handle. The first stop sign that this vehicle comes to will be an adventure (at 60 mph), or better.

I understand Walmart lets you park in their lot for free. If so, you can go from one to another across the country. Shopping is easy, charge folks to take a tour of the coach and you never have to pay property taxes or mow the lawn.

Not all Walmart stores allow RV parking overnight.

And imagine accelerating and stopping! How much weight will the owners add with all their stuff?
In NY, we pay for the license plate based on vehicle weight. I bet that motorhome is heavy.

I am jealous. I always wanted a diesel pusher. Alas, it will not happen. At 81 it became time to sell the Winnie gasser and just travel in the Traverse from motel to motel.
