Long Long Trailer Movie

I remember watching that movie as kids. We were able to relate to it because in 1948 My parents loaded kids and my aunt into a car and followed my Dad and big brothers who were in a truck pulling a “Long long trailer” We started in New York and ended up in California. It was supposed to be a permanent move but we ended up coming back. We have driven our motor home across the country a few times. Cannot imagine what it was like with no freeways and limited facilities. I was very young and only remember the stories. not much of the actual trip.

Yes, watched it three times in a row at Bates RV while they prepped our new fifth wheel. Had to get up and walk around after that.

Great movie..:-)

FYI: If you go to the TCM website: you can set up a search for any of their broadcast titles, they will email you with a reminder the next time it is shown. Then just set the DVR!

Such a classic...love the inside of that trailer. Ricky trying to take a shower is so funny and backing it up at the Aunt's house!

I remember one where they went on a trip with a motor home. If i remember right it was one of the shows, Not a movie. Very funny.

The DW has been collecting rocks ever since the first time she saw the movie. My axles are bent and the transmission now smokes all the time.

The 1954 Classic on DVD for less than $5, great to have for those rainy days in the camper.

Oh how I wish I'd seen your posting earlier.

Recording it for the wife. She loves it. It is soooo true though. The junk she just had to take along about flattened the tires.
