[A/S] best choice?
I have rethought our families needs for an Airstream. I have always wanted
one. But we aren't much of campers, and have busy lives. Summer vacations
are at Cape Cod and we fly to destinations due to time constraints.
I would really like the newly designed International, even if it is hard to
change the sheets, Hunter! For the first Airstream I think we should go a
different route.
We do however have a tiny house on Cape Cod. (20x40 with a big three season
porch) I want to get an older model and permanently plant it on the
property, connect it to water, electric, and septic. Sort of an outdoor
version of the A/S in the loft. That was just too cool.
We'll get to know the first one and fix it up. And then get a fancy one when
we retire.
Now, with those parameters in mind, what model or layout, or condition would
you recommend? We won't need a full kitchen, no stove allowed for zoning for
a guest house, or a lot of the things you would need for long trips. And the
interior can be rearranged. I'd like a twins and or a bunk and a bedroom in
the back, I guess with a double or queen.
I live in and drive through upscale Boston suburbs. When I was driving home
from work yesterday I saw an A/S "planted" in a neighbor's yard with an arbor
over it. So it isn't exactly an original idea.
