Saw three three Airstreams today on 98 in north Florida. A nice 23 rear bed pulled by a black Cayenne, an older Excella, and a new Classic chasing a new f150. Flashed lights and waved, gestures returned enthusiastically. We were the FC20 with orange kayaks on the white truck. Nice to be back on the road watching for ASers!

As all can see our alternator went so we rigged up a generator with battery charger and all that. We struggled with fuel problems after Tennessee by the time we got to wall South Dakota we were down to 15 miles an hr. It was a constant loss of power. Towed to rapid city( amazing city!). We had a section of fuel line changed and new filter which gave us a steady 60 mile hr approx till we broke down in great falls Montana from there I spent $3200 on towing

Look on the bright side, at least you didn't hit a moose!

I did not expect to see an AS on Trans. Canada 1 at Golden BC. Pray your trip today was without incident.

Well, the CanAm team used a Subaru to tow an AS to their RV show. We met a lady who towed her Retro SOB with her Forester (bigger box, less power, but maybe less weight too). We don't see many, but they are out there. Wonder how many miles that rig has behind it? Pat

Bok Tower Gardens Feb 25, 2017

Beautiful Day spent with my folks. Hate that I-4 drive from St Pete to Winter Haven, but going to Bok Tower always makes up for the hassle. Besides, I just get in the right lane, and let everyone else jockey for a position. Saw this beauty in the Parking Lot while at Bok Tower. Should've stopped to say 'hello', but we were trying to get to the 1 o'clock 'show'.

On Friday I saw a white Silverado, with a lime green canoe strapped on top, towing a 23' Airstream traveling south on US 27/98 south of Sebring, FL.

I was right behind a silver beauty making a U-turn in St. Augustine Beach. Pulled by a dark green SUV, and the trailer had Quebec tags. Not sure what model-looked to be 22-23 feet with a rear bathroom. Love the AS from all angles- looking good!!

Airstream sightings

I was stuck in traffic behind this unfortunate Airstream. She has been melted in a fire.

Saw this one and second Airstream traveling together going north on US27/98 in Sebring FL, while I was waiting at a traffic light. The second trailer turned off somewhere before I caught up to them 10 miles down the road. The photo was taken as we approached Avon Park FL.

I also saw an Airstream Interstate towing an Airstream trailer in Kissimmee. I was on highway 192 near Celebration when I passed in front of them while they were waiting at a traffic light. No time for a photo in that traffic.

Serious Airstream party going on in Charleston, SC right now. I'm parked next to a 22, see a classic out my window, and one of the mercedes benz motorhomes across the way. 3 more Airstreams on the other side of the park.
