This large luxury RV unit came up for sale recently, and it caught our eye, mainly due to its size and the Kenworth cabover pushing it, as well as its clean, interesting look.
The basis of this motorhome is a K100 Kenworth cabover tractor. It’s a “Canepa design Kenworth.” Very strangely (to me), the sale information included no details about the tractor, its engine etc. It went on about the long list of RV comforts and amenities. The Kenworth tractor was converted into the luxury motor home and is currently licenced as a motor home. So to drive it a person doesn’t need a commercial drivers licence.
So what is in this big RV?
- two twin beds, located in the cab
- living space with custom built-in sofa
- ample storage compartments under the sofa cushions
