Re: [A/S] Bought Used Airstream-What Should We Look For?



We bought a 74 International and love it. It's history was very much
like the one you bought.
We did have to replace the tires after a few years, just for peace of
mind, more than evidence of them being worn out or brittle.
One thing we had done, and since I tow with a miniscule (according to
Hunter and her mega-truck friends) Crown Victoria, was to have the hitch
installed by an A/S dealer. He set the hitch so the car tows correctly
and without  sway. It's almost like the car is saying, Ah, this is what
I was meant to do, when the trailer is hitched up and we're headed down
the road.
I agree with a previous poster, that this is the place to get all your
questions answered. Also it is the place that will add to your list of
questions.
See you down the road.
