What a beautiful rig. I really like the way the tinted windows of the AS compliment the black Lincoln TV. What an excellent taking delivery report too. Sounds like everything went well.
As you use it you will probably find other things that aren't quite right. I just took mine in after 6 months to have a few minor things dealt with under warranty, such as drawers that fly out while towing, broken pantry rack, water not as hot as it should be...etc. I also had the wheel bearings repacked while it was there. It's easier for me to have everything taken care of at once. My local authorized AS service center (SkyRiver) has been really good to work with, and Airstream is really good about taking care of warranty issues too.
We just wanted to post a big THANK YOU to everyone for all the congratulatory complements, tips, and suggestions. We are anxious to get it out of storage and use it again in a couple of weeks. Have to get this Christmas thing done first .
It's great to be a member of this forum. We've learned so much, and will hopefully be able to respond and help others too. We look forward to meeting many of you on the road some day soon.

I like your setup.It goes really great with your vehicle.Isnt black just a beautiful color to go with the silver?I had a black vehicle previously but now I have a gold one.I think it is nice but nothing like my black one.See you at the rally and have a great and safe trip.
Congratulations and thanks for sharing the joy and beautiful photos! I must have missed this (sporadic poster here) but had to wish you all the best with your new Airstream and upcoming adventures....post some pics of your first rally!
Our Equalizer hitch is also noisy but we've never lubed it, if you do let us know what you use and if it works!
Happy camping and enjoy your new life of thinking and dreaming every Airstream
Barbara, Our Equal-i-zer hitch was horrendously noisy until we greased it up, and now it's very bearable. Terry used some kind of bicycle grease he had on hand, but anything that lubes well would probably do the trick. Makes a huge difference.
Yes, as Janet says, do lub the hitch according to the manufacturers directions. I used their socket lube that I bought from them along with a lost pin survival kit "Be Prepared".
We just returned on Monday from the Florida Can Opener Rally, and the lubed hitch performed just as well as when we used it the first time, but now it was very quiet.
