A ten year old Airstream is better than any NEW conventional. Hell, my THIRTY year old Silver Streak is better.
Depreciation has done its thing at ten years. Value rises from then on.
Start looking at used examples.
And, no matter it’s size, you sure don’t need a pickup. That choice ruins highway stability.
FWIW, I paid a couple of dollars UNDER $30k for both vehicles, combined. Twelve years later, they’re worth as much or more. Granted, as third generation I knew what I was doing AND had some luck.
