Re: New Airstream Globetrotter

A couple of thoughts on the Camp Lite. The aluminum superstructure and composite floor are terrific developments. But, it still has a pondliner for a roof. Fridge right beside the toilet?? Ewwwww. Plus, the whole social aspect of Airstream life would be missing. We very much enjoy the rallies and caravans.548Views0likes0CommentsRe: New Airstream Globetrotter

There are many other types that make me shake my head, most notably Class B vans. But, everyone makes their own decisions for their own reasons. Travel safely and enjoy the fall weather!548Views0likes0CommentsRe: New Airstream Globetrotter
Everyone buys their RV for different reasons. But, there are a few things that folks seem to overlook about the Airstream. -All aluminum skin, far more durable than plastic -ZERO possibility of delamination -Far better suspension system than on my previous rig -No slides mean that when we are in a Walmart or Cracker Barrel and can't get slides out, our camper is fully accessible. In the other rig, most of it was unusable with the slides in. -No pond liner roof. It is aluminum. -We specifically didn't want slides. They are heavy, add complexity, add cost, and are an entry path for water, heat, cold and critters. So, to each his or her own but before you bash Airstreams, you should examine why they've been around for so long!548Views0likes0Comments
