Oxymoronic RV names (emphasis on MORON)

As we pedal, we get a very up-close and personal view of the many recreational vehicles barrelling down the road. To pass the time (and to take our minds off the near-misses), we collect oxymoronic RV names (as a reminder, "Jumbo Shrimp" "Pretty Ugly" and "Deafening Silence" are all oxymorons). Here are some of our favorite names for these 40-foot long, gas-guzzling, diesel-belching, generator-blaring, Hummer-towing behemoths. These are all real names:

  • Wilderness
  • Adventurer
  • Sprinter
  • Brave (we were the ones who had to be brave)
  • Outback
  • Trailblazer
  • Pioneer
  • Patriot
  • American Dream
Non-Oxymoronic RV names:
  • Intuder
  • Big Foot
  • Big Horn
  • Cyclone
  • Titan
  • Everest
  • Travel EZ
  • Warrior
  • Rage'n
  • Conquest

haha i've seen the prowler too. so creepy.

yeah- the RVs are really really scary.

we met a really weird german guy that was traveling the US by himself in an rv...he'd named his RV happy, his honda suv sneezy, his canoe sleepy, etc., etc....pretty odd fellow.
