Anyone towed a 70"s 31ft Airstream?
If so what did you think? what kind of MPG you get towing? Would this be easier to tow than a fiver? Would it work for fulltiming? 31ft sovereign rear bath twins... Thanks...

My mom and dad had a 31 foot 71 Airstream that they towed with a Chevy Suburban (454). They did not full time but spent 6 months a year in it and pulled it from Ohio to Florida, Nova Scotia and south into Mexico. The Suburban got around 15 mpg as an average and that dropped to about 11 mpg when pulling the Airstream. 454's were not known to be miserly, but pulled this setup effortlessly.
They really enjoyed their trailer and my dad was impressed with the low exterior maintenance that he had to do compared to other trailer owners they encountered. I have used the Airstream several times and alway thought it towed, setup and lived quite easily.
