We’ll take a wild guess that the use of the motorhome shown in the video near the bottom of this article is rare. We’ll go so far as to say that this may be the only time in your life that you will see proof that, indeed, a motorhome can be used for this purpose.
So what is that purpose?
Making hay! Yes, making hay! Well, technically, baling hay! To be specific, the motorhome is attached to a hay baling machine. It then tows it slowly through a farm field as the machine gathers up hay or alfalfa and forms it into bales.
Normally, such a machine would be pulled with a tractor. We say that in case you have no background in farming.
Once the machine completes forming a bale, it drops it off. Meanwhile, more hay or alfalfa is gathered up and forced through the machine, and is then wrapped with twine or something similar and then dropped off only a few yards after the previous bale.
If you have ever in your life seen a motorhome used for this purpose, please leave a comment. If you have seen an even more unlikely vehicle used to pull a hay baling machine, then please tell us the “who, where, when and why” of how that went.
And (this is a long shot) if you have ever driven a motorhome for the purpose of gathering hay, please tell us. We’re not expecting to hear anything, but if we do we’ll have a great story for a future issue.

Maybe he’s an itinerant hay harvester. Harvests hay during the day, sleeps in his RV in the field at night, finishes one field then moves on to the next customer to harvest their hay. 🤔 –Diane at RVtravel.com
