Hardly. I'm just posting as I go along figuring this out. Others are far more conversant in this if you can understand them.

I'm an expert like Zlee is an expert in backing. We're learning.

Tom, You're right. Different strokes. But unless your house is 200sf I don't see a comparison.

Gene, but Z is a bedding expert, she took the time to explain to me the fundamentals of what constituted a good foundation for mattress support. She also pointed me in a direction for products. So what is a good Wi-Fi set up?

OK, check out this thread: http://www.airforums.com/forums/f451...ml#post1129667

It started quite a while ago, but won't die and has gotten a lot more lively as of late. This changes so fast, you can probably ignore the first year or two.

The 16-19' Airstreams are the least intimidating for a new/first time trailer owner, and that is probably why they are in high demand in the used market. They possibly are the most popular used A/S models, judging by how quickly they seem to sell after listing. Once you've had some experience with TT's, or smaller Airstreams, you'll probably want something bigger, and would be comfortable towing it.
We've enjoyed our 19' Bambi for several years, bought used. If I have the opportunity to buy new next time, it will be a 25. Sometimes a little bit bigger is just right.

LOL. It's not. But going to the wide body 25' and longer trailers gives a definitely noticeable feeling of added space. For a couple who started with a T@B teardrop, it's a far way away from "just camping."

Not saying its rational, but not many things in life are.

Now that is a beast, and the tongue weight is what, 1,200 lbs?

LOL I have a 25' and my tongue weight is 1000! In 2015 I took the factory tour and that was a question asked. The reply was a phrase something like, "over the years the 25 is very popular. It is the smallest of the bigger models." I knew he meant wide body, tanks, etc. I didn't ask the question but I remember the guide's reply. As to the question of which floorpan- that would be a tough one. I know that my floorpan lasted something like 23 years and spanned different model lines- Safari, Classic and before that- center bath, rear bedroom.
