Congrats on your new baby!

I would be thinking "Road Trip". I just can't imagine a better adventure than going to the factory and bringing my new Airstream home with me. But then I would come to my senses. I guess I better stay here and work so I can pay for my new baby.

I am looking forward to seeing the pictures.

Dan

Pix from the factory, dated 1/9/13
Deleted sky lights are missing, final answer to THAT raging controversy about factory options.
That frost looks like fillaform having its way already, , ,

Maybe ready to ship?

Awesome! Bet you can't wait to take delivery and get out in it for a shakedown cruse.

I'm working on uprating my receiver hitch from class 3.
While I was in town shopping welding shops, I stopped to check tire specs and poke around.
I couldn't find the inside loop for TV/SAT connection. The 25 EB I looked at was on the end cap wall above the long, (port) side of the dinette. Other FB's have this below the dinette table on the back wall.
A call to seek divine guidance from the mother ship is to be placed on my behalf, , ,

After twenty days of a fun gastro/intestinal bug of some fortitude, I have gotten out of the house again.
Had to pay for my new rig. They were ready for my final walk thru, but after the papers & checks I ran out of energy (brain dead). I made the 23 miles back home and body slammed the couch for three hours.
So I have a rig and a pile o' papers, yet not one little branded keepsake.
Nor the "secret handshake"
I do feel stronger today, that 23 miles of fresh cold air perked up this ol' biker.
I've got to get started on that hitch issue. I found out for sure that I need to drag it back to Az to get it registered.

Maybe later this week, , ,

Did my final walk thru today, got to poke around all the secret spots and ask the tech questions. Found the road salt from the trip from JC underneath, my shiny new wheels have the corrosion on the polished ribs already. Brought home the instruction manuals to study.

Also have an appointment to get my hitch upgraded next Monday.

Things are finally lining up for my dash to Az for registration/shake down cruise.

Happy to hear you are getting close to picking it up but sorry to hear about the corrosion on the wheels already. I'm pretty surprised since I would think they would be clear coated as are most auto wheels nowadays and would think they can handle some salt spray.

I just purchased a 2012 International Serenity and had the dealer send the original wheels back and get new ones before I would accept delivery. Had corrosion all over them. I plan to balance, install centramatics, and clear coat the wheels and many other items this weekend. Good luck and have fun with your trailer.
