I just purchased my 2nd Airstream ,its a 1974 Tradewind it should look good along side my 71 Tradewind

The two of them will complement each other.

I had two of them around my place for a short time until I sold one. Both of them took up a lot of room and it was a little tricky placing them where I wanted them. My yard is only 80' in front and 120' deep.

It kind of looked like a dealership around our place. Makes me wonder what the neighbors were thinking!

Since I've been on this forum, I've started wishing that I still had our first one.

There are things on the older ones that the newer ones don't have; such as.....

1. I miss not being able to fill the fresh water tank by opening only one valve (1968 Safari 22 foot) allowing it to fill from city water supply line.

2. I miss the simple thermometer that was on the front of the 1975 Overlander 27 foot. It would show the high and low temperatures for the day and it didn't need a battery.

3. I'm still wishing I had a simple drain valve for the fresh water tank on the one I have now but I don't think there is one; at least I haven’t found one yet! (1983 31 foot Excella.)
