There’s a new set of wheels in Doug Ford’s driveway.

An RV with a massive “Ford for Mayor” wrap was sitting at Ford’s campaign headquarters in Etobicoke Thursday morning — parked in a handicapped spot. Ford told reporters he’ll be hitting the road in it, talking with voters.

The wrap covers the entire RV, with a picture of Ford’s face and campaign slogans “For the People” and “Get Connected.” It also advertises Ford’s Twitter and Facebook accounts and his phone number.

Ford showed off the ride to his brother Mayor Rob Ford, who was at Mount Sinai hospital Wednesday night receiving his second chemotherapy treatment after a cancer diagnosis last month.

“He came down to see the new RV that we have out there wrapped up. We’re going to be going around the city, meeting the people from one end of the city to another. Rob’s in good spirits,” Ford said.

Ford’s campaign was not immediately available to comment on why the RV was parked in the handicapped spot or if its owner had a proper permit for the space.

In 2010, then candidate Rob Ford had an RV of his own for the campaign. Ford’s Ford motorhome was 15 years old and was leased by the campaign. George Smitherman also had an RV for a four-day, 44-ward tour across the city.

Smitherman couldn’t resist taking a few shots at Ford’s ride at the time.

“Rob Ford’s motorhome is old and I heard it fire up one time and I thought it practically blew up,” he said. “I’m in a motorhome that is fresh, fuel-efficient and ready to move forward. His looks like it would have a hard time making it up any hill.”
