Status and Cost?
I do like the friendly tone of this post. Yes, Airstream does sell status as a big part of this but they also back it up with some pretty good quality too. Do they cost 4 times as much as an "equal" white box trailer? I doubt that.
When people ask me about my decision I compare it to purchasing a Harley Davidson or buying an Apple desktop. Many years ago I bought my first Apple while friends were picking up cheap PCs that had the same, or even larger capacities. When I asked a salesman about why Apples were priced so high he told me this. If you buy that computer over there we will likely see you within a year. If you buy that one, it will probably be before two years that you will need something fixed. If you buy an Apple, we won't see you again until you want to upgrade.One of my friends has been through three computers while I still had my original.
Both of my brothers have Harleys and they are beautiful bikes. Are they worth the extra money? They are to these guys.
I bought a new Starcraft and had lots of problems with it the three years I owned it. Cheap drawers than never shut right, an entrance door that wouldn't latch, a problematic slide out, cheap tires, brake issues, plastic sinks and faucets, an exterior lock that broke and so on. My used Airstream has not been a drain on my wallet, at least not since the big outlay at the start. To each his own.
