Same make, different year Jack. The old ones are much more fun to find, they have more character, just like us.

Yeah!...I noticed the 'Class B' manufacturers similarity Wayne!...except for the Ford (your capture), Chevy (mine)...The tops are identical (except for length no?)...

Ya'll know which make (Ford or Chevy) was produced earlier members?...

And let's not ignore character Wayne?...you & I most certainely have the bases covered on that one......Not to mention knowledge!...'street smarts' acquired through a lifetime of 'real-life experiences'...I for one am full of it!......(pun intended).

Jack, you are correct, every morning I look in the mirror and see an old class B looking back. I limp on the left side, guess I need some air there. I see a few rust spots here and there and I am deffinatly not hitting on all cylinders. One of these days they may find me broken down by the side of the road.

Shortly after this Thursday sighting captured in Fort Pierce FL:



DW & I continued on our South-bound trip home riding along US1.
We decided to make a quick stop at out favorite local Italian bakery in beautiful Port St Lucie Fl for a loaf. I decided to take the scenic route home when I sighted this:



This Dodge 'Pleasure-way' was parked on the lawn of a patriotic local...ripe for the pic'ns...



FTR, I snapped all these pics from DW's 'Mazda 3'......Our 'Roadhouse' was parked at home take'n a break...



I circled our target as best I could, given the distraction of approaching traffic intermittently obscuring my snapping view......alas, the annoyance of on-coming traffic turned out to be of no match for THIS dedicated 'Class B Sighter'...

Jack

Kevin James showed the same dilligence in the movie 'Mall Cop" that you might enjoy.

No pain, no pics!

Keep 'em coming guys! I love this thread. I too like the old ones...I'm a fixer-upper by nature,wish I could adopt them all. Bs are scarce as gators here in Maine, or perhaps most of them are usually under cover due to the climate? Since reading this thread I find myself keeping my eyes open for them. This time of year is great for sightings. I try to see what states they are from too. Totaled 22 states last summmer!

This Friday, late morning, I suggested a trip to 'Satellite Beach' in our 'Roadhouse'...I packed a cooler containing a bottle of 'Chablis', a bottle of 'Chardonay', 2 bottles of HEAVY 'Miller' beer, and naturally, a 2 day supply of ice......then asked myself: "Do ya feel lucky punk?"...

DW & I drove along the coast-line of the surrounding area in search of a very special pizza pie establishment then found one......'Bizzaro's', located in 'Satellite Beach'

After enjoying a tantalizing 'Spinach Calzone' lunch with-in our 'Roadhouse'...parked at a beach accessible lot...containing a non-obstructed view of the ocean...I spotted this:



A Dodge Chassi based 'Leisure Travel' Class B parked smack dab in the parking area...



THE END

Or is it just the beginning?......SNAP!!!
