I agree with jmtandem. Hail is a reality but shouldn't be the reason not to get an Airstream. I live in an area where damaging hail is a rarity but it still remains my constant fear. I suppose that is why I have insurance against such damage.
Look, Airstreams like all other trailers have their advantages and disadvantages. They are smaller on the inside and they do not have as much storage as the big white box. I find that there is plenty of storage on the inside and almost none with exterior access. They are very expensive but, if you look at it as an investment, you will retain more of your initial involvement when it comes time to trade or sell.
I bought mine slightly used in 2009 and paid market price. By today's market values my trailer is worth about 90% of what I paid. I doubt that you could say this about the typical trailer that is 9 years old. So, expensive, yes. But only when you consider the initial outlay. If you can swing that then I submit that things are more equal than you might want to admit. Buying new always makes things worse if you want to recoup as much of your investment as you can.
OH, and don't forget, a happy wife makes a happy life.
