"Luv Shak" Takes 5th Wheel Graphics to New Extremes

Are they hippie throwbacks? Visionaries? Just plain crazy? You'll have to make the call for yourself. Vance and Kathleen Hamiliton decided to throw away the stix-n- brix lifestyle for a new fifth wheel. Not contented with the factory livery, they hired an artist who--not with an airbrush mind you, but with a plain old paintbrush--turned their new fifth wheel into a traffic stopping, hummingbird attracting, child enthralling, mobile work of art. Beauty, they say, is in the eye of the beholder.

Maybe it's her background. Kathleen spent 30 years teaching middle school students. If that's not enough to addle your brain, well, anyway. The Landmark built fifth wheel now sports huge murals boasting nature in every mile traveled. Tree frogs, butterflies, even a castle make up the eye-popping designs that seem to practically grow out of the side of the 5er. You can only imagine the experiences this couple has had with their--shall we say, colorful--rig? Check out more photos and information here.
