Airstream 5th Wheel - Integrity pictures

Our 1997 Integrity has three slides. I can post pictures if anyone is interested.

I would LOVE to see an Integrity -- not a big fifth wheel fan but it's cool to see other rigs and kinds of rigs...
Glad I don't live where you do. I'm an architect, not a plumber or gardener, and I have driven a pick-up for the last 11 years. I get more respect when I show up on construction sites driving a truck than driving a passenger car or even an SUV. I admit that southern culture is different than mid-western culture, but give me a break about not allowing something as mundane as my $43K pick-up on your boulevards, puleez.

I agree, if you want a large vehicle, you may as well get the vehicle that can do it all. I was faced with strapping plywood, mattresses etc to the top of my SUV's. I had to put liners in the back so I could carry firewood, mulch etc only to have to still clean it out after the trip. I will admit that the AS did look good behind the silver Suburban but it was a bear to get the bicycles and other items in and out the hatch everytime we traveled.

SUV's are for people that just dont want to look like Soccer Moms in a van, My wife is one of them. She will ultimately get a van but in the meantime she requires "coolness" in her SUV.
Oh man! You just listed a lot of the reasons we have what we have for a tow vehicle and general use.... 03 Ford Econline 350 XLT wagon.
With all the seats behind the driver taken out, it registers as a truck in Iowa, gives us over 11 foot of cargo room to the back door! Better than any pickup with a topper! We added a low plywood platform to the back to cover the seatbelt stanchions which makes it easy to slide stuff in and out. Couple all that with the large side doors and well, it don't get much better for a one ton!
