Is there a high end TT other than Airstream?

Airstream w/slideout

WE own an Arctic Fox and you may have one custom built, they are solid as an Oak.
Had ours several years and never had a problem.

We just bought a new ATC 28 front bedroom, made the garage area like a living room. It has a 5.5 built in onan gen. Its a travel trailer to us. No toys.

Actally built better than Airstream. All metal including floor. 100 gallons of fresh water. Torsion suspension. Solid coach tows like a dream.

It does appear to be a well constructed all aluminum trailer although, being a toy hauler, it is very "spartan".

In my mind, one of the benefits of the Airstream construction is the curved roof section. The wrap over the "edge" and are joined to the side panels with about a 2" over lap. Not likely to have a leak at that seam !

Skip the sliders and go for a Bowlus: http://www.bowlusroadchief.com/

They have several lines, added trim levels also..

We liked the Blackstone, but they have a nice selection.

I would also recommend Outdoors RV, they have some very nice units.

Kids are grown and I'm getting tired of driving a 40' motorhome. I would love to get an Airstream but the DW loves her slide outs (no explanation given ). Is there a high end or luxury TT that has slides and looks cool like an Airstream?

Are you sure about switching to a TT? Once you travel in a MH you really do get spoiled. :W

Why not just buy a smaller MH? And DW can still have her slides.

I started out with a TT and then went to a MH. There is no way I'd ever go back to haulin around a TT.

Airstream did make some models a few years ago with slideouts. I don't think there are any new models with slideouts.

Nothing at all in the airstream category. The next level down is less than half of what airstreams cost. That's where your Northwoods products, lance, grand design, and even used evergreen trailers come in to play.

We like our Lance. We looked at Airstream, but like your wife, we wanted a slideout. No Arctic Fox close to us in the Midwest, plus they're heavy (which could be an advantage, but....) would have necessitated a much bigger truck.

I should clarify a bit. The kids are less and less interested in camping, soon they will be adults. This setup would be for the wife and I to do more sightseeing. Dirt bikes and ATV's will not be part of our plans moving forward. For the past 15 yrs I've been either driving a Dually with a 18,000 lb. Toyhauler or our current setup which is 64' long and 38000 lbs. A nice pickup and a 30' trailer would be heaven to me. I always have a long list of things that need to be repaired or serviced. So it would be nice to have a simple TT and a new truck. But still something we could use for long extended trips. Northwood does make a quality unit but those Airstreams are so beautiful. I wish they still made slides.
