Newbie Humbled by Airforum Member Knowledge
As a newbie, I offer my sincere thanks to all members for your vast knowledge posted to Airforums that helped my wife and I walk the path to Airstream ownership. We recently picked up our 2019 FC 25RBQ named the "Silver Sanctuary" - Let the "glamping" begin!
I started reading the Airforums as a "Guest" about 6 months ago to get a better feel for Airstream TT and AI benefits, trade-offs, issues and challenges. I read hundreds of threads and posts. The posted information helped my us decide a trailer is a better choice for us than a Class B.
Further, your posts helped us with size, features, compatibility with and modifications to our tow vehicle, accessories/add-on's, negotiating strategies, PDI checklists, etc. The wisdom and experience of you Airforums members was invaluable to us - much appreciated.
Further, a shout out to those with experience and strong opinions on tow vehicles. As a result of your postings, I drove from San Diego, CA to CanAm in London, Ontario to have our 2015 MBenz GL350 Bluetec diesel hitch receiver, hitch head and hybrid WDH modified by Andy Thomson - the enhancements have really helped my confidence towing our rig. Also, I took the opportunity of my cross-country trip to visit the Jackson Center AS manufacturing center - watching TT's & AI's go together really helped me understand the the complexity of our aluminum palaces.
I'll post to other threads on my (warranty) issues: water in clearance lights and squeaky floor around the rear bedroom. I'll also hit up the Solar Sub-Forum on suggestions to add an additional 120W portable unit via the A-frame solar port to the 180W Zamp solar panels/controller I already have on the trailer - it's always something; Thanks again!
