Congrats on "living the dream!"
Here are two suggestions that we found invaluable.
First, there's an awesome YouTube family that has owned everything from a gigantic 5-wheel, to a 2-person teardrop - in just a few years! They're currently in a 30" airstream and their videos are SUPER informative...as they are entertaining! "Keep your Daydream" I think this is the video they first get their airstream:
Second, having a group of wonderful, seasoned Airstream owners to chat with (and show) is invaluable - the very first day we owned ours we took it from the dealer's lot to a rally...and the help, advise and insight was invaluable!!! They're tentatively planning a "no host" rally at Penchanga Resort in March. Here's their web site:
