[A/S] Newbie - need opinions on size
Hi Folks
My wife Nancy and I have been camping for five or six years with a
variety of pop-ups and most recently a 16 ft. Casita. We really
enjoy the Casita but have been thinking something larger would be
nice. We have decided on an airstream but not on a size. I have
several concerns and will appreciate your input.
We do a lot of weekend trips and it is very easy with the small
trailer to hitch and go - does the larger size tend to dicourage
short trips?
To be blunt - I'm not that great at backing up and getting into
campsites - I'm usually able to provide plenty of entertainment for
my camping neighbors when pulling in! Am I overly concerned with the
difficulty of pulling and parking the larger units?
With the Casita I can pull into just about any gas station/fast food
so don't concern myself with a lot of planning on where to gas up or
eat. Does that change with the larger units?
Any other thoughts?
Thanks
Dave Brett
