Everyone buys their RV for different reasons. But, there are a few things that folks seem to overlook about the Airstream.
-All aluminum skin, far more durable than plastic
-ZERO possibility of delamination
-Far better suspension system than on my previous rig
-No slides mean that when we are in a Walmart or Cracker Barrel and can't get slides out, our camper is fully accessible. In the other rig, most of it was unusable with the slides in.
-No pond liner roof. It is aluminum.
-We specifically didn't want slides. They are heavy, add complexity, add cost, and are an entry path for water, heat, cold and critters.
So, to each his or her own but before you bash Airstreams, you should examine why they've been around for so long!
