    Pat,
    I love the additions or improvements in this version.
    It would be nice if they add two quality plastic bins for the shelves under the fridge.. This way you can slide the bin out to pick something in the back without having to mess with all the stuff in the front. It will be also easier for the user to pack stuff in the bin and simply bring the plastic "drawer" in.
    Today most people want a convention MW oven. Is that an option or could it made to be a standard feature.
    I guess people will need to pay the dealer to upgrade both fans. Airstream should take a hint from Rockwood and install the best Maxx Air Fans.
    Doing that rear bed is a workout.

    It looks cool but I can’t figure out who this is for. The tanks and solar aren’t ideal for boondocking. It’s not as luxurious as a traditional Airstrream. Who buys these and what do they do with them?!

    Beautiful trailer; however, I think you missed the mark by having a flush toilet. Should have a Wrappon Green toilet or composting toilet which would allow for a larger fresh water tank up to around 50 gallons allowing longer stays dry camping.

    • @mikeyseifert80
      @mikeyseifert80 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They have an option for a composting toilet for this very reason.

    • @colonialairstream
      @colonialairstream  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The composting toilet is available as a factory option. The Wrappon is not a practicle toilet based on cost per flush for an active RV user.

      FYI water weighs about 8.5 lbs/gal. So 50 gallons of water would weigh 425 pounds. You only have 800 pounds of optional weight - just saying.

    But seriously, that is a really nice trailer for its size. As usual, Airstream knows how do make roomy trailers.
    As I started to watch this vid, I thought, hmmm.... this might be a good option for our needs.
    UNTIL, it got to the weight part. Sadly, our Honda CRV only has a towing capacity of a miserable 1,500 lbs (probably due to being a 4 cylinder and the CVT tranny.
    Oh well.

    It's the rugged ready to go adventure Airstream that you can pull with your mid-size truck.... or is it? My Tacoma has a rooftop tent, bigger tires, and additional upgrades... the payload on midsize trucks is very low, add in the Airstream, two humans, a dog, and your gear and your easily over your payload. This is going to be the case with anyone who actually goes on real adventures... We all have gear.... bikes, kayaks, rock pads, ropes, shovels, etc. Am I still getting one, probably...but it sucks that I need to get a whole new truck in the process.

This is only feasible with a fully stock truck and you're are still going to be limited with what you can bring with you. These are for still too much for a midsize truck, without increased risk.

      @@colonialairstream nope, but in my defense, I did mine CORRECTLY, in that my “zipper mod” (look it up on Airstream Basecamp Facebook pages) is horizontal, not vertical. It was discussed at length several years ago. Horizontal at the level where the cushions would be allows you to access lower storage, pass things into the Basecamp (CPAP comes to mind) and you don’t have to look at a zipper seam.
      I doubt one could patent installing a zipper.
      Glad they were smart enough to adopt it though, because one way or another, it used to be IMPOSSIBLE to snap on the screen from outside of the Basecamp without it.
