If you are looking at a bumper trailer with one of the names below you can be assured you are looking at an Airstream.
If you plan to buy an Airstream, there are several things you should know:
The buying process isn't always easy - Airstreams are popular and are often snatched up fast.
If you are planning to purchase a new Airstream, you may need to get on a waiting list as the factory cannot keep up with production.
Living in a small space means that things get dirty and look junky fast - Airstreams are tiny homes on wheels, and full-timers will need to adjust their thinking.
Only carry what you love and get rid of anything that clutters up your living space.
If you make this decision before you go shopping, you will be in a much better place.
Airstream's offer very limited kitchen space - If you plan to full time, you may want to develop an outside kitchen space to use during good weather.
Airstreams are still RVs, and that means there will be things that break down even in brand new models - Trailers require special skills, and you may not be able to fix things yourself.
The best way to avoid stress is to plan for issues and locate a service center before you need one.
The exterior metal can make airstreams feel either hot or cold - If you live in an area that is humid or rainy, you may need to buy a dehumidifier to keep water from building up in the rig.
You will also want to take preventative action by sealing all leaks to the outside and understanding your heating options before it gets cold.
If you live in an area that gets cold, you will need to insulate your RV pipes and keep your gray and black water tanks closed until you plan to dump them.
Be sure to wrap your incoming water hose with heated electrical tape in subzero temperatures.
