Ditto and Ditto. Had the same thing happen to us 2 summers ago. Sure was nice having the 'Stream as a comfortable backup plan.

And you have a 30-amp plugin for your driveway parking? Cool... Or 20 amps at minimum if you run no high amp draw appliances inside the Airstream. Just want to post a caution about using a 15A-30A adapter for air conditioning...

Yes, I have a dedicated 30 amp rv plug in the trailer barn. I did notice this: On night 1, I unhooked the tug, and leveled the AS perfectly. during the night, water (condensate from the evaporator coils) leaked onto the floor directly below the AC. I gave the AS a half bubble up angle, and no more condensate on the floor over the next few nights. Is this normal? Or, do I have a bent/plugged drain system? Its not rain, as I'm under a good roof, and it was only about 2 oz of water. Its a new trailer. BTW, I'm trying to post pics and its not working. I ain't a-gonna quit trying tho.
