RE: [DML] DeLorean Mobile Home?



The Vixen Motorhome has no relationship in any way to the DeLorean
car.....John had nothing to do with it. I dunno where that story started
but first time I have heard it. The only similarity is that it has a rear
engine!! It was a good idea and ahead of its time. 587 were built
between 86 and 89 by the Vixen Motor Company in Pontiac Michigan. . They
started out with the Turbo Diesel 5 speed and a flat roof.....they will go
in any garage....then they went to the Buick V6 with Automatic and some had
a top that pushed up by hand and others had a solid raised roof. Still
others had an AIR powered roof. A neighbor owned one new and They loaned it
to us several times. It was compact.....a 21 footer fully self contained.
Motorhome magazines always have pictures and ads of them for sale. They
cost between 40 and 53K new and even now go for between 18 and 22k. They
were very light weight but small in size (21 feet long). They are just a
compact motorhome and very good for what they were intended to do. NO gull
wing doors, no stainless steel!! They were like the DeLorean in that the
design STILL looks up to date. Very smooth and sleek looking. There are
clubs and groups that have Regional and National get togethers that are very
active.
