I looks like there's some sort of cross-promotion campaign going on with airstream...There was an ad in the current Airstream Life issue...something about making fishy faces. Looked kinda silly, but will reserve opinion until more details come out...

Update: details here.

It's a huge cross-promotion. The word on the road is this was a deal for AS to dump some rolling stock and rent them on KOA sites. It's a done deal; I know these things.

Hey Millvalley,

The Petaluma KOA is beautiful and would make a nice location for one of these beauty's. Ever get up that way?

Hey Vlamica
We go to that KOA often. The kids love that place and we're only 30 minutes away!!!...
We've seen several Airstreams there...some in long term parking.
The last time there were 4 Airstreams spread throughout the park.
Maybe we'll run into you there someday...you're 15 minutes away?

Yup,

Lets make a point to meet there. I work in Santa Rosa and drive by it each day thinking i could be there and not in all this traffic.
The KOA in Asti (Cloverdale) is also fun for the kids. The setup in Petaluma would be great for the airstream but i dont know how in this economy they could swing the purchase. The cabins are virtually no maintenance for them and i would think the airstreams would be considerable upkeep and policing.

Wish they would "ruggedize" them for OUR use.

When they sell them off in five years, what will the axles be like from sitting the whole time?? I would be afraid to by an Airstream that has had that much traffic through it in that short of a time......

So, if there is a KOA located in a touristy area like Mesa Verde National Park but it is not a "company owned" park and it is just a franchise, the owners of the park must purchase the A/S to put in their park. Several members of the Forum have had experienced a KOA Campground and agree that some of them are inhabitable. guess you take your chances in getting into a nice KOA like we have near Mesa Verde. Even if it a chance to stay in an A/S is it worth $100+ per night to stay in one, i.e. Las Vegas etc. ??

I have to say that this is the first time that I have seen the word "fiddle" in a press release. It gave me a good juckle.

Hey Millvalley,

Would we be so bold as to put a date on the calendar for Petaluma KOA?
We wouldnt need KOA to supply the airstream.. we will bring our own!
