What about those little 70's Dolphins...

I admit to preferring the luxury of the most current 6-cylinder Toyota RV's but we have have to note the importance of the first generation versions of the Dolphins...17' long and extremely compact and cute as a bug. The cabover bed is still functional in size and design and the 20R motor matched with a 4-speed transmissions probably performs equally with the later 6-cylinder/automatic configuration. All the Toyota motorhomes are hovering in a status similar to Airstream Bambi's in both price and funtionality, but those smallest of the clan will probably take the lead in value relative to fully-depreciated price. Keep an eye out for a nice one for me if you're out there looking and buying Toyotas: I'd like to have one to use as an interesting surf-mobile...the possibilities are endless.
