What if, you could drive your RV into Space?

Some of you may have read the news story about sending a CAR into space. Now if space is as it is with one exception, you can breathe fresh cleaner air, than on Earth.

What, of all Recreational Vehicles (RV) of your dream, which would you select to drive to MARS and stay awhile and then drive back to Earth. Now the important part of this question. Why that RV, you selected, for the trip to MARS and BACK?

LOL, what a topic... I'm going to need a few more cold snacks.


But, if the ONLY difference was there was breathable air between Earth and Mars, that would introduce a whole new set of problems to overcome...


Off the top of my head, I think it would be easier and preferable to deal with the vacuum of space rather than having breathable air filling the interplanetary space between the planets and working around the issues that would create.


LOL, interesting concept though!!

Okay, I'll bite. I would say a Super C because that is what I want on earth, don't have the money for it and wouldn't have to be worrying about staying on the road in space. Or Spaceballs Eagle five, tried and true.

Your warranty would be exhausted before you could get very far and I'm not sure even Coachnet could find a wrecker, but I'd go. Probably want a Prevost for this trip though.

No RV I know of has a big enough LP tank and good enough insulation to stay warm for that trip through space. You'd at least want double pane windows.

I wonder, would RV space travel create more RV'ing space here on Earth?

If so I'm all for it.
