On your first point here - how is GMFL’s post “pointless”? Did you not see his description later of what he intended? I get that text is tougher to decipher than face to face conversation but I think you may be missing something important here.

As to OP’s prediction - well let’s be honest, make the prediction that a thread will run off course and you’ve got perhaps a better than 50/50 chance of being right [emoji23]

OP - if you’re still reading - my $0.02 is you should sell - you’re burdened by it on some level. Be done with it and pick it up again when your strategy better aligns.

As for the rest of this discussion, the horse stopped breathing long ago....I’m done too [emoji3]

Good thing he didn’t go on one of those “best hitch” or “best tow vehicle” threads. Those would have scorched his eyeballs...

But seriously I think he’s still up in the air as to selling or keeping...an emotional decision.

Oh well... what did you say the best hitch is?

I always wanted a pony. Then I grew up and realized that they take a lot of “cleaning up after” and realized it’s a good thing I don’t own one.

Occasionally, there is certainly a lot of fresh, steaming evidence to support that theory...

Irregardless - Wikipedia

"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irregardless

Irregardless is a word sometimes used in place of regardless or irrespective which has caused controversy since the early twentieth century though the word appeared in print as early as 1795. Most dictionaries list it as non-standard or incorrect usage and recommend that "regardless" should be used instead."

Since we are stirring the pot!

We purchased the Featured ad option with airstreamclassifieds and the Premium option with RV Trader. No responses or inquiries from AC but a lot from RV Trader and our buyers came from RVT. I would have thought our 22’ Sport would be snapped up quickly on AC but that wasn’t the case. Provide some photos with good lighting, I think ‘staging’ it a bit helps too, (table set, kitchen set up, outdoor set up in a nice locale). I had several comments on how people could envision themselves camping in our Sport.

Surely the pricing has a lot to do with how fast things sell. Staging pictures are nice, but I have found most AS purchasers on the Forum know what they want and can recognize a well priced offering; staging not as important as condition and price.
