As the OP of this wildly out of control thread, what needs an upgrade is this wildly out of control thread.

I love this thread! The humor and candor in the discussion is great. Though I am just catching up, I noted some despondent postings. I do not believe it is a put down thread at all, simply rather, a realistic if not humorous perspective on new versus old or change and transformation.

Quote:
However, the mentality (from many vintage owners) that new purchasers are all snobby elitist that don't know what a crescent wrench is....is disappointing.
You rich yungins go right ahead and by that new Land Yacht and park it next to mine. I will be more than happy to swoon over it and we can have a blast adjusting the powered table height and walking on the teak! My dream rig is my made up 5th wheel (five per side) 45' Airstream Palisade model with gull wing doors and porch! (see pic if still there!)

Quote:
I truly believe that the highest quality Airstream you can buy is not an older one or a newer one. It's a trailer that has been owned, sorted and - wait for it - upgraded (!) by an owner who is a true enthusiast.
Sometimes upgrading is inevitable. The plastic gets old and brittle so you have to buy new! But often the plastic is thinner or well, just not the same, still, it has to be replaced or redesigned better.

BTW, I get wrench names mixed up but at least I know there are different kinds of wrenches or is it wenches?

(Just remember, In the real Wizard of Oz, Dorothy's slippers were SILVER!)

Great thread.... I hope we all have a tongue in cheek attitude....LOL
My theory is that some of us are so frightened about having problems we like to get new, and take the huge hit if we sell it quickly. Hopefully, I will keep my new one for several years....

My truck has over 70,000 miles and new is not better or at least new would require all the modifications to be done again....like air springs, all the mounts inside, generator mount, etc., plus a diesel requires so darn many miles to finally get broken in....

And the craftsmanship..... The new Airstreams have a very real fit and finish issue, apparently the result of a rush to get them out the door. However, for those who like to add the final touch, like me, some of the little glitches can be fixed and this gives the trailer a more of a personal feel. Of course all Airstreams have distinct personalities, and this is what sets them apart from.other trailers which appear mundane next to one of our "silver bullets". Maybe that is why other trailer folks think we are all folks with our nose in the air.... More LOL
