Future Streamer from New Jersey

Hi

We're happy to have found you!

We are new to the airstream world and are currently on the hunt. I can remember the joy of seeing airstreams when my family was driving cross-country when I was a little girl. The love has been with me ever since!

We are hoping to find a smaller trailer type (15'- 17') with good bones.

I've already found the people on here to be most helpful. We hope to post pictures and join in some rallies soon!

Gabbie

Welcome to the forum.

Good luck in finding your Airstream. It is easy to buy an Airstream, but hard to find a good one. Don't hop in the sack with the first one you see. Look at lots of them so you learn about what you really want. When you figure out what you really want, then pay whatever it takes to get it.

Oh, does Colonial sell vintage, too?

It's hard to think of waiting. You know when you've wanted something for so long and finally make the decision??
Same story that brought me my boston terrier...

Colonial is a new trailer dealer. I wouldn't buy a new one. For the $ vintage is a much better deal. New ones go down in value. While vintage ones are going up. The price you pay for a new one could get you a few nice vintage ones.

Just my 2 1\2 cent
