[VAC] Re: Airstream ad in local paper



Thanks for the encouragement, Pearl.  My tow vehicle is an extended 1984
Ford diesel van, probably 19 to 20 feet in length itself.  It's every
bit as big as a Class B motorhome.  I wish there were a way to rent a
long trailer for a few days, to try it.

I'm in the market for a 24 footer, ideally.  Call it cowardice, but the
idea of driving the combo of "Beelzebub" the van and a 30 foot trailer
of any kind is a bit daunting.  I've had the van since October and am
getting pretty comfortable backing. I can back into tight spaces far
more easily than I can get into them headfirst.  Go figure.

Perhaps I'll just go take a little peek at this Airstream...
