A much funnier RV movie was the The Long Long Trailer with Lucille Ball.

Is that the movie where Lucille Ball had loaded so many rocks they had trouble going up any grade?
I am not sure if that is the one you are talking about, but the one where she loaded so many rocks was really funny.

Since you did see the movie before you bought an RV, was that what made you choose to take the plunge?


Put us down as YES.

We took my Dad to see it when it came out and it brought back so many goos memories I started to look for a camper. Not having a tow vehicle I ended up with my own "Big ol rolling turd".

We loaned our copy of RV to someone and it never got returned so my wife ran to Wal Mart and picked up a replacement. That one is well used now!

I consider it one of my all time favorites. It is what it is........funny.

Have watched it several times and still makes me laugh. We have a copy in our MH for those rainy days.

That's a great movie, but you're showing your age!
