Thanks, we will always feel like part of the Airstream family, whether we have one or not.

This was all shot on a little sony x3000 action cam. It's one of our favorite cameras for run and gun filming. Audio is great, and video is even better. If you get one, make sure to get the square lens protector.

Here are a few more of our videos that might be helpful to new Airstreamers, or those shopping.










Pros and cons of lifting your Airstream.





Installing our lift






Understanding Solar







I also have a series on installing solar on an Airstream.

Excellent series.

New about 90+% of the stuff in there, but it's always good to pick up a few a few tidbits!

Love your enthusiasm and appreciate the work that went into these great videos! Very helpful for someone like me trying to learn about trailers, daydreaming about that Globetrotter I'd love to have!

What an honor to have your first post be about this topic. I'm so glad they're helpful for people learning about trailers and the brand. Boy, a globetrotter would be great, wouldn't it? They're gorgeous.

I'm watching the How To ...Electricity one (I REALLY need this one!) and laughed out loud. I got my Bambi home year ago, went out to hang out in it, tried to turn the TV on...No TV! What? Looked all around, checked the fuse box and everything, called the dealer, read the manual again and again. Haha It's so funny that's a thing!

Excellent.
I just watched the awning video because I'm fighting with my awning. It doesn't roll far enough to latch the rear wheel.
I'll try it again with your tips.

You're not alone. Most dealerships won't explain this. They either assume you know the difference between AC/DC circuits, or that you'll figure it out one day.

You most likely retracted the rear arm past the "#1" detent. In other words, your little spring isn't in any of the detent holes. Pop it back into that first detent pin and it should line up nicely.

I am subscribing to your thread. It is awesome. A great resource for anyone with a newer Airstream.

I will be checking out the videos that I can use(winterizing and awning). We have a renovated 67 so sadly a lot of the information won't work for us.

Have a great day
Chris

Thanks so much for these! We’ve just purchased our first AS, and unfortunately due to timing, we’ve had to put it to bed for the winter without figuring out the details. We can watch your videos over the winter, and start out well-prepared come spring. Best of luck in your new adventures.

Nice!

On a side note: Lube your awnings arms

Happy holidays to all the new airstreamers out there. Hopefully these videos help some new owners.
