we are going to pick up our 25 FR 2015 twin in one week. We upgraded from a 22' sport 2013. It was a a dream to tow and very reliable. We needed a better bed configuration and just more wide body room for longer stays and hauls. Very excited and we will be asking service all about the inverter and capabilities. We have an inverter in our Tow Vehicle but it does not power much. Forget a hair dryer on these inverters.

I bought a 2015 FC FB in August. Aside from replacing the water pump the first week I am very pleased with it, and have towed 4,000 miles since I got it.

The antennae is so-so and I have installed satellite. (I have an addiction to baseball and college football, mea culpa....)

I will be having a solar install by Lew Farber in November, and then I foresee a lot of boon docking in the southwest.

Tomorrow is the day. We get the 2015 25FB tomorrow in Defuniak Springs. Our neighbors are referring to the new Lucy as Lucy 3.0. Little Lucy is all cleaned up and ready to go. We will give a full report tomorrow with lots of pictures.

We went up to DeFuniak Springs and took delivery of Lucy today at Dixie RV. Things went without a hitch, and our New Lucy is perfect. It took us about three hours to change out the Hensley, but We can do it better than most technicians. We got our new girl home at about 6 PM and got her settled in.

We took a few pictures when we picked her up.

Hope you love it!

New Lucy has the ducted air conditioning. I am trying to find the air conditioner filters. I am assuming that they are somewhere behind the air return grates in the ceiling. Where are the filters, and how are they accessed?

Also. it seem like a couple of the air conditioner registers are not blowing any air. Are these adjustable, and how is it done?

Neither the dealer nor the Airstream manuals could help.

We removed and reinstalled our old Hensley ourselves in the dealer's parking lot.

Call Airstream and let us know what they say. Tell them also your dealer hasn't a clue and should get some training. Mention the manual deficiency.

Oh, you wanted filters with that?

Bad pun on my part.

We just vacuum the intake grills - which seem to do a fair job of filtering the air.

Congrats on the new trailer, Brian!

I thought it was very funny.

**moosetags** · 10-03-2014, 07:46 PM

I made some progress on the intake filters. I was able to remove the grate and clean the filter. The grate has a spring clip on each end.

Moosetags,

Noticed that you shot that on the kitchen sink. A suggestion is to cut that thing in half, allowing you a cutting board and access to the sink at the same time.

knunut · 10-04-2014, 07:17 AM

Congrats on Lucy 3 .Have many more nights on the road.

Thanks for that tip as we have never used the sink covers and usually just store them away.

I ran that by my wife who says that's a great idea😉. She's kept our lid under the mattress unused for 5 years.
