What They Drove: Paris and Nicole commandeered a frosted pink GMC Sierra pickup truck (with custom chrome and pink rims) and hauled a silver 25-foot CCD International Airstream trailer. "I drove the whole time," says Paris. "It's really hard to drive while tugging along a trailer. It was scary going on the highways. Big trucks would drive by and it would just shake."
The trailer's tight quarters included a bathroom with a septic tank that had to be emptied every five days. "We were really smushed together. Shared a bed. Clothes everywhere. It was a mess," says Paris. But, says Nicole, "We made the best out of a really bad situation." Adds Paris, "We're so close. We're like sisters who don't fight."
Travel Companions: The
Simple Life 2 stars were accompanied by a 34-person production crew in a 10-vehicle convoy (so much for simple).
