EXTREME RVs
“Top Secret Techno Monster”– Premieres Sunday, November 8 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT
Legendary designer and engineer Bran Ferren, co-founder of renowned tech firm Applied Minds, is in the process of creating something the world has never seen. Deemed the “KiraVan,” Ferren’s latest project is a vehicle that can safely and comfortably transport his young daughter to any part of the world the family wishes to explore. From the arctic to the desert, this outrageous off-road vehicle is at the forefront of technology, equipped to protect and serve all of its passengers at an unsurpassed level. Tour the evolution of this expedition RV from conception to fruition, exploring its unparalleled features and meeting the masterminds behind the machine – from the scientists to the electricians, engineers and fabricators. This all-terrain vehicle is designed to survive the harshest conditions – extreme heat, extreme cold, from the rainforest to the desert, in flood or drought. It can travel 2,000 miles without resupply and has a tethered drone for a bird’s eye view of what lies ahead. In an emergency, KiraVan is equipped with its own “lifeboat” – a one-of-a-kind diesel motorcycle. There are Kevlar tires, more than a dozen interlocking communication systems and a cockpit designed by Story Musgrave, who performed the first shuttle spacewalk on Challenger’s first flight. With millions of dollars and countless hours invested, the KiraVan, upon its completion, will almost certainly be the most extreme, expensive recreational vehicle on the planet!

HOTEL IMPOSSIBLE
“Spinning Out of Control” – Premieres Tuesday, November 3 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT
Anthony Melchiorri is in Galena, Ill., to help the Grant Hills Motel. Reservations are taken manually, paint is chipping off the drab exterior, the rooms are outdated and communal areas are cramped and dangerous. Underneath the bedspread, Melchiorri finds a venomous wolf spider. To top that, his Hygiene-O-Meter detects bio-pollutants on every surface he tests in the room; in fact the air conditioning filter is so disgusting that it breaks the device! Meanwhile, the guest laundry facility also functions as the boiler room and storage. It’s a dingy, dangerous place accessible only by a treacherously dangerous staircase. Ramona and her husband, Bill, own the motel, while Ramona’s sister, Renee, manages the property. But jealousy and animosity between them runs deep – they now avoid each other completely. Melchiorri calls in a therapist to mediate. While the Grant Hills Motel is struggling with occupancy, the Blaum Brothers Distillery – which sits right next door – is the most popular attraction in Galena. Melchiorri meets with the brothers to coordinate a partnership with the motel. He then tasks designer Anitra Mecadon with renovating the property, reassesses the roles and titles of Ramona, Bill and Renee and gives the motel an overhaul to bring it into the 21st century. But none of this matters if the sisters can’t improve their deteriorating relationship.
