He's "Ignored" on my computer, thanks for the tip.

Has anyone heard of expanding the new Classic line? I would be surprised if they didn't offer a midsize model such as a 25-27' which is as large as we would go. It seems there is also an ongoing interest in building another 34' and that would be easy for them to do if they had more factory space, and that is in the works.

Oh, I like it now, Ken. It came to me in the middle of the night......like an epiphany.

A local dealer was given a tidbit of knowledge that the 27' Classic model would be back later in the year.

Thank you for your comments, BAB. We are looking forward to crawling all over the Classic 30 that, we hope, will be at the Tampa show in January. We are taking Bessie so that we can tow our new home away if the planets align. Yes, home. We are going to fulltime.

It is fine to have differing opinions, but some of the comments in this thread have been almost hateful.

Hope you like the Classic as well as those of us that have one on order. They really are nice, best I can tell. Once I had the information, I was sold, the hardest part is awaiting delivery. Sounds like Ron will be taking delivery soon. Originally I was scheduled for Mid-October, but, it has slid to early November. I had not heard that the 27' would return, but, I kinda figured it would because of it's popularity.

Congratulations on Full-timing. Hope to see you somewhere on the road.

That was a disappointing turn of posts.

YooooooHooooooo Airstream Adventures N.W. I called two weeks ago for
a price on the new cast alum. tail lights to replace the nearly identical
cheepo plastic ones A.S. installed on the "65 Overlander I'm restoring.

Can anyone give me a lead to the manif. so I can go direct?
Thanks

Page, just make sure you guys don't pull the trailer off the frame with all that torque!! While I had a good deal on a trade-in, a very nice couple bought SilverLeaf and will pick it up in the next couple of days. Which means I will be "trailer-less" until the new one arrives. Hard to tell when that might be. ODM converted one of their "stock" units they'd ordered back in June for me. I did modify it a bit....(you know me). Had planned to do some Fall leaf-looking, but can't always do what you want. My porch is getting filled with all the electrical component upgrades for the new one....enjoy Tampa! Barry

Looking forward to seeing the new Classic at the Tampa show as well. Congratulations to all who have them in order. I'll bet the wait seems forever. Great to see a high level of excitement.

We had a 2013 Classic & traded it in for the 2015 Classic which we picked up on Sat. The new trailer lacks storage but has added comfort. Nicer finish with better appliances, ducted air, power awning & stabilizer, much nicer window shades . We added a rear door entrance which is nice feature. Taking the new trailer out for its madden voyage this week. Will get a better feel playing around with it for a few days.

I would be curious to see the rear entrance.

bobcat1959 · 10-20-2014, 11:05 PM

Same as the front door, opens the opposite way. It was done local by dealer & looks & works the exactly the same.

Pagey · 10-21-2014, 06:15 AM

A door into the bedroom? I am intriqued. Would like to see pictures.

Here are a couple looks at the 2015 Classic with front & rear doors.

I have seen some sorta power jack levelers done on airstreams - I would be interested to see those on newer airstreams as an option

Not levelers. Stabilizers. BIG difference, PharmGeek!

PharmGeek · 10-21-2014, 10:49 AM

I know - but there is such a product as hydronic levelers - I am aware that stabilizers are not levelers!

There are aftermarket levelers being used successfully. Mine are made by leveltronic.

BAB · 10-21-2014, 10:53 AM

You mean hydraulic levelers? Since you posted this on the new Classic forum I thought you were referring to the electric stabilizers that come standard. You could probably source some kind of package a la a MH, but would be way-y-y-y heavy!
