Once again Patrick's link brings up Page Not Found. This should work.

While the ducted air would sure be a plus, it's unfortunate they added a hump and didn't take the time to integrate the entire system into the end caps.
Nice reporting, Pat!!

We actually like the noise from our AC. We typically run the fan all night for white noise. I've seen several stories on AF about water dripping from the AC into the trailer. Where is that water going to go when the AC drips in the ducted system?
Too bad you can't please all the people all of the time. |

Thanks Patrick! Is the shower in the new classic the same as in International models?

We know that the 2015 single Classic model starts at $121,750. Based upon the 2014 identical option items prices, the list price should top out close to $132,500 plus a fudge factor for the option price increases, so probably closer to $135,000.
When one looks at the Colonial Airstream website, we see literally dozens of 2014 Flying Clouds and International models with prices close to or over $90,000. The average base price for the 2014 Classics was around $95,000. A fully loaded with all options 2014 Classic would crowd $107,000.

As far as I can tell it is the same as the 30W Internationals and Flying Cloud

2015 Airstream Model Year Updates and Improvements
Thanks for the updates, Patrick, much appreciated.
The feature requests I've seen most often repeated here in the forums are as follows (your experience of the forums may of course differ): * 16" wheels with non-ST tires for every model * More reliable tank sensors * Top-quality multi-stage converter * More comfortable mattress on the bed * Top-quality factory installed solar system (MPPT controller, etc.) * No more filiform corrosion * Frames that don't rust * Subfloors that don't rot * Quieter AC system Looks like the new model year got a few of those, which is nice. We're still in love with our 2014 International Signature 27FB. It's just so beautiful, and a comfortable, relaxing place to hang out wherever we camp.

Thanks for the updates. You mentioned something about a new antenna. Is it one of the automatic HD antennas that tune in HD TV signals? With the ducted air, is a dual A/C system still available? |

What about the rumor of a Classic motor home that is basically a new GM 4104 bus with a Duramax engine and Allison transmission with an Airstream chassis? GM was supposed to have manufactured the buses in 2013 and Airstream was to do the interiors in 2014.

According to the news release, the first units were not due to roll out until sometime in 2015, so I would think that might be a model year 2016. Here is a link to the announcement. Airstream announces new Classic Motorhome! | ViewRVs.com RV Blog |
