Buying a New Airstream
Airstream continues to rule the road when it comes to luxury Airstream travel trailers, but did you know they also make motorhomes and recently introduced a tent trailer? That means whether you prefer a towable RV or a motorized one, Airstream has something to offer you. Here are a few things to consider when buying a new Airstream.Perhaps the most important aspect of buying any new RV is working with a reputable dealer. Every major city has at least one RV dealer that offers new Airstream trailers and Airstream motor homes for sale. Use the search feature on our main page to locate the Airstream dealer nearest you or to request a quote right now. The dealer's knowledgeable sales staff can answer all the questions you have about buying a new Airstream RV. In fact, you can rely on the highly trained staff at your RV dealership to help you with all aspects of buying a new Airstream travel trailer or motor home.
Before you start shopping for a new Airstream, you need to determine what type of RV is right for you. Recreational vehicles basically fall into two categories: motorized and towable. You can get information on all RV types simply by visiting RV dealers and looking at a lot of units. You can also log on to industry websites, such as RVIA.org or follow these links in order to help decide which type of RV is right for you.
Airstream manufactures both main types of RVs. In the past, Airstream was known for its sleek aluminum travel trailers, and you can still buy those. However, they also make both Class A motorhomes and Class C motorhomes, and they now offer a pop-up camper called the Basecamp that incorporates features of tent trailers and teardrop trailers. In order to decide which one is right for you, consider how you will use your new Airstream, along with your personal preferences. A full-sized Airstream Class A motorhome makes a good option if you plan to live in it for extended periods of time. On the other hand, if you value maneuverability, a new Class C Airstream may be a better choice. If you want the classic Airstream experience, a travel trailer definitely is your choice. And if you want luxury and panache in a compact space, the Basecamp won't disappoint. Your Airstream dealer can help you decide which type of RV will best suit your needs.
Start your buying journey by visiting RV dealerships. This will not only help you get a good understanding of what's involved with owning a motorhome, but you'll also get a good idea of prices. Budget is a major consideration when it comes to buying a new RV. Experts recommend that you consider how often you'll be using your new RV when you create your budget. Remember, though, if you value quality and plan to keep your new RV for a long time, then it may make sense to pay more up front for a high-quality vehicle such as an Airstream.
Once you've narrowed your choice to a handful of models, start looking at individual units with an eye for livability. Does the floor plan accommodate your needs? Is the galley large enough? Is the bed comfortable? You should be able to find an Airstream trailer or motorhome that meets your personal livability test. When considering livability, take into account how you will use your new Airstream trailer or motorhome. Couples or families on the go may value Airstream's optional solar panels that enable serious off-roading, while snowbirds may be more interested in how traffic flows through the floorplan. Every Airstream owner has different needs. Evaluate yours carefully and choose the model that feels most comfortable to you.
Finally, you should always spend the night in your chosen RV before buying it. This is standard practice in the RV industry, so don't be shy about asking your dealer about doing so. After all, buying a new motorhome or travel trailer is a major investment, and you'll be spending a lot of time living in your new RV. Taking it for a "test sleep" before buying is good insurance.
Buying a new RV can be a wonderful experience. Just remember to work with a reputable dealer in your local area, do your own research on RV types, and perform a rigorous livability analysis on your top three models. If you do, you're certain to discover a new Airstream that will meet your RVing needs for years to come.
