Airstream for beginners



My wife and I are planning to upgrade our trailering in the near future and we are 
seriously considering a small Airstream. Because we routinely camp in remote 
locations, we want a small, maneuverable unit such as the Bambi or 22 foot 
International CCD. A good, clean used unit is a possibility as well. 

Unfortunately, even though we live in the center of RV manufacturing (northeastern 
Indiana) I cannot find a dealer with either of these models on the lot. Also, I haven't 
been able to get a straight answer on the MSRP of these units. My experience 
shows that a motivated RV dealer will take about 20 percent off of MSRP. I assume 
this is also true for Airstreams. 

Are there any experienced Airstreamers out there who can suggest a reliable dealer? 
We are willing to travel for a fair price. Also, where can one find MSRP? Without that, 
there's no way to determine if the deal you get is a good one or not. Any additional 
advice for first time Airstream buyers is appreciated as well. 

Thanks for your help.
