2008 Airstream Classic LTD 30FB King

Hello,

I am sure you already heard that Airstream released a new 30' Classic Limited FB King Floorplan. The new 30FB floor plan features a walk-around King-size bed, A redesigned FB Classic bathroom with a window, a built-in microwave, plenty of storage under the king mattress and an optional 2nd TV in the bedroom that can detach and be placed outside under the awning, for fresh-air viewing. We are sure this will be a huge hit with current and new Airstream customers. I have taken several detailed photos of this trailer and detailed specifications will be available soon. Enjoy!!



King Mattress



Under Mattress Storage




New Bathroom Design



Bedroom TV & Large Wardrobe



Galley with Large Pantry and Built-In Microwave Convection

Hey, nice trailer. On the other spectrum of size, I thought I saw a new Safari Sport 22 with TWO side windows. Is this a new addition to the line, and do you have pics of this? Exactly what I'd like to see, more windows in the Safari Sport.

Finally, a new coach I would like to have!
And of course, just to prove I'll never be truly "happy" unless I'm messing with something, can it be gotten with a Queen? The extra 3 or so inches per side would be better to get out of bed in the middle of the night.

Thanx for sharing this info. Nice layout. It looks like someone in Jackson Center is actually awake.

NeatAirstream: Can you tell me what size the Flat Screen TV option is in the Bedroom? I want to add one to my 34' and it looks like the maximum size that will fit will be about a 19". Thanks.

The max size that fit in my bedroom was a 19" Wide screen LCD. See one or more of the threads on LCD tvs.

Very nice! But, personally, I like the traditional layout with the couch at end of trailer. I think the arm rests make it more comfortable, and you have more sense of space looking down the length of the trailer. Don't get me wrong, I really like the FB design. Putting the living area on the scenic side of the trailer was brilliant. Wonderer if there are any plans to keep the traditional 30' Classic layout, but include a king size bed?

The largest TV you can get in the bedroom on the new 30' FB is a 19" TV.

Honestly, that's probably about as big as you'd want. Anything larger would tend to overpower the room.

Yup. Thinking either a 15 or 19 at this point. 15 would fit better but there are less to choose.

We have the 15 in BR. It fits the space exactly. I wanted the 19 but it would have stuck out past the doorway. Hope this helps.'shaker

Well said.! I agree and might add that one may get a kink in their neck from viewing the TV from the sofa.
Also, I don't think I'd want to make up that Kng bed daily

All said, it's still a great Classic and everyone has their own preferences. It should be a hit.

It'd be interesting to see how they would use the space on a 34' to come up with a FB 34' model.

Nice unit...$93k nice? I guess we'll find out how many takers there are.

Only real concern besides cost is that the front fantastic vent disappears with the second A/C unit, yet still has a skylight. I personally don't think you need a skylight when you have 2 vista views and the pano front windows, to me, I'd rather have the fantastic vent particularly when boondocking.

It is a sharp unit though.....

I LOVE the new 30FB Classic Ltd., but I also agree with Silvertwinkie - $90K++ is approaching being almost kinda stiff. But I love the FB floorplan and I love the 30' trailer size, so a good match. I'd really like to know if they'd make it with a center queen with a night stand on either side? (I don't see how anyone outside a circus could possibly get in or out of that bed on the sides & not get twisted and/or fall down. Also, the chosen wood is too "checker board" for me - wonder if they'd do one in pecan wood? Would they cover the window valances in hides from a few Texas longhorns? Would they use cork rather than lino or vinyl for flooring?

Guess I need to get out there & get me an "awl well", cause that's the only way I'll ever move up to the 30FB. But I also said that when I had the 2000 Safari 28 and just sorta dropped in to visit my local AS dealer. Aluminitus needs to be studied by the Center for Disease Control.

I will admit to lurking on Colonial's website, waiting for it to arrive, then enjoying looking at this trailer, making small changes (in my mind). Airstream Dreaming for real. Thanks to Colonial AS NJ!!! Please do let us know how this model sells!!
