You may be an airstreamer...
If you mentally add a hitch and wheels to your toaster every morning.

If you think it would be cool to have an aluminum-colored polo shirt with a blue stripe!

You may be an Airstreamer - if the first building you erect on your retirement property is a steel shed to protect your Airstream from hail, not to mention the 30 amp, water & dump.
The next project was a 6-stall horse barn, attached to one side of the Airstream's shed wall. Not to mention another shed on the opposite side of the barn - just in case another Airstream decides to come live here.
The retirement house only got built several years later - you gots to get your priorities right! My daughter NEVER did understand. I quit trying to explain.

You may be an airstreamer if your Father's Day card was addressed to "Pop Rivit"!

You may be an airstreamer if your girlfriend responds to "Honey, let's get hitched up" by expecting some sort of ceremony thing.

You may be an Airstreamer if you always get a warm, homey feeling at Wal*Mart just at sunset.

You may be an Airstreamer if the "camping" organization you belong to spends more time and money on rules and enforcement than on having a good time.

You may be an Airstreamer if you just cut new wood bottoms for the twin beds but failed to notice the sawdust falling onto your shiny Kawasaki.

You may be an Airstreamer if the mere mention of possible hail in the weather forecast puts you into a cold sweat panic.

if it has taken you longer to name your RV than it did any of your kids.

Dufferin - In my case, it's the upper right side. But there none the same, with continued thanks to your wife's photo.

You may be an Airstreamer if:
You attend a HUGE trade/antique/junk fair with your WBCCI unit friends, you're riding your little electric cart all over the fair with this 4 ft tall pink flamingo (absolutely COVERED in brite pink feathers & wearing gaudy pink rinestone encrusted eye glasses) riding between your knees on the floor of your cart with this HUGE grin on your face and just daring the folks you pass to say anything. Several ladies did stop him to chat & take photos - not just of the flamingo, but of him, in his straw cowboy hat, all a'grinnin like a Cheshire cat AND the flaming pink flamingo. He loved it. Paid a fortune, and loved the whole day.
Life's Good.

You have a bumper sticker on your RV that reads...
"YES, THEY DO STILL MAKE THESE!"

You may be an Airstreamer if:
You spent twice the cost of the Airstream for a huge garage to protect it from the elements.

Barry said "[quote=safari57;463313] You may be an Airstreamer if:
Your friends and relatives call to see if you have room for the night as they travel through, but not in the house - they want to stay in the Airstream!"
Revised: You tell the relatives that no, they can't stay overnight in your Airstream, but they are more than welcome to your Master Bedroom, while you & your wife go stay out in the AS.
I've done this for years now. Non Airstreamers, including my own daughter DO NOT sleep in my trailer, period. Things get broken and are expensive to fix . They still come to visit, it'd be a tad obvious what their intentions really were if they didn't come after being told they couldn't stay in the AS. But, nobody really understands. And that's fine with us .

You may be an airstreamer IF...
You can, at a moment's notice, glaze listeners' eyes with a detailed dissertation on the finer points of aluminum polishing.

I agree with you. After a few visitors stayed in the trailer it was obvious that although they really like it they also don't actually appreciate what is involved in properly using it. This year we managed to deflect users and I think from now on we will follow your suggestion . It makes sense and for us any opportunity to sleep in the 'cloud is appreciated.
