Well, I am a student with a DSP-fetish, so I am still saving up for a bicycle.

My parents have something similar to this (just the front part - not the trailer - that's unusual).
They travel all around the United States in the thing. There are entire communities of mobile homes here in the US - like the Hell's Angels of motorhomes. They travel in groups sometimes and often will convene on a certain town somewhere (they call it a rally). There will be literally hundreds of these vehicles parked in an area. The companies that make these homes bring their latest models to sell at these rally's. It's wild. Consider that a fairly decent mobile home like the one pictured can cost upwards of $250K USD (or more depending on how nuts you want to get). Not to mention the cost of gasoline for these things (I think my dad said it cost around $250 to fill up the tank). It must seem like an incredible waste of money to people outside the US. Yet these things are fairly commonplace here. It's mostly retired professional couples that cashed in their profit sharing and are living the good life.
I remember my dad complaining one time they went to a large rally and there was a small booth giving away free ice cream. People were waiting in line like 45 minutes for a free scoop of ice cream. The ironic part was that these people probably had some ice cream in their refrigerator
