Shari... Does this mean I have to slash the prices of my bridge and mansion now too to stay competitive?

So in case you didn't want to read from the beginning... I found this ancient thread from 2003 about an eBay auction, in which someone was trying to sell photographs of Tom Hanks' Airstream for $20,000.
Everyone promptly wet themselves laughing.
Today, almost 6 years later (and just as our pants had finally dried) comes yet another unlikely proposition.
Ladies and gentlemen... the actual, alleged Tom Hanks Airstream is now for sale. And the price tag? Ironically, $20,000.
(Boy, whoever bought those photos is gonna kick themselves!)
The L.A. Craigslist ad:
AWESOME AIRSTREAM
And because it'll disappear in a week's time, a transcript of the ad with photos:
"PREVIOUSLY OWNED AND REFURBISHED BY TOM HANKS! Custom built by Tom Hanks for his own comfort on his movie sets, this incredible Airstream is a steal at $20,000 (or best offer) when $25,000 has been actually invested into it. Bands, Actors and Guests have enjoyed this spacious "Home Away From Home" and if only walls could talk, the things they'd say! Given as a gift to a Sound Genius, this Airstream has been modified to offer not only delicious comfort but a rockin' good time with a great sound system! From traveling bachelors or buddies to families exploring the great outdoors, this awesome place promises loads of fun for everyone! SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY!

If anybody on the forums would know if this is even the real thing, it'd be Inland Andy. Perhaps he'll lend his insight on this...

Wow, For a 25K investment by Tom you would think that the axles could have been replaced or is that due to all the sound equipment under the beds!

Rod at C&G Trailer does all of the work on Tom Hanks two Airstreams.
He didn't know Tom had a 1978 but will inquire the next time he hears from him.
