The rig looks awesome inside and out, and you have only just started. The wheels add bling and the floors are beautiful. The darker color will appear less dirty between cleanings and seem to make the hallway longer! Enjoy

Wa Hoo, Camping World finally got it right! Our ROUND corner Sleep Number bed showed up today in two boxes. (On their first try they sent us one with four square corners) It took me about 15 minutes to assemble and load in the Airstream.

What a difference from our old Airstream's small and very hard bed!!!!!! My hubby is away on a business trip but that didn’t stop me from taking a little nap with our dogs on the new mattress


So we've invested a little over $3000 in repairs and upgrades to get our "new to us" airstream into shape, but I can honestly say this was the best money spent so far!

Nice! I'm glad the new Airstream is working out. Where did you buy the flooring?

Flooring was a special order from the Home Depot. They carry just a few colors in stock at the stores but the manufacturer offers several colors that can be ordered online and delivered to your house with free shipping. We found the online price was $0.20 per sqft cheaper then if we ordered it in the store!

The color we use is called "Iron Wood". The product is TrafficMaster Allure vinyl planks.

cyberous, where are you in CA? We're in LA. Have a 25' International CCD and can relate to the bed size issue as were both over 6'. Glad you found your RV and the renovation looks great!

We're south of San Francisco by about 90 miles.

We are having a great time with it so far. We've been to two forum rallies in the past two months and just signed up for another next month.

We're still working out a few minor issues with the Airstream but so far the 25FB is a great floor plan for us. The Sleep Number bed is fantastic for the two of us and the occasional large dog! Floors are durable and easy to clean with our three dogs.

Our old tired V-10 Dodge was not loving the way I drive with a trailer, I have a LEAD foot, so it was giving us less than 7 MPG! We found a really clean 2006 Ford diesel to replace it, so now we have a pair of '06's.
