HI Becky!
I 'worked' on my hubby for quite some time too. It is a huge investment that hopefully will be richly rewarded.

I took him with some friends to a couple of vintage trailer rallies...liked the Airstreams and decided that vintage was not the way we wanted to go.

It helps if one of your friends gets an Airstream....

Went to a dealer in Ohio to look and dream. I didn't care for the dealer ...."You've looked almost 6 months, aren't you ever going to buy?" I begged his pardon for my slowness but this camper almost cost what my first house did! Had he been a bit more understanding that not everyone pulls the trigger on a 40+K purchase quickly he may have made a sale.

Do you camp at all now? What may really help is are the comments from my hubby after our first trip (he was the reluctant one who really 'got the AS for me')
- "It pulled like a dream"
- "We were set up and packed up in less than half the time of our pop-up"
- "Yes, it was nice to have our own bathroom"
- "Wasn't it fun when people passing by our site would stop, stare, and drool???"

Go to the rally! I'm sure the guys there will help you out.
