So...I suppose it's safe to assume that there's only two of us here on Lemmy that own (can afford with this inflation?!?) an Airstream?!?

I figured with a bit of time since that "place that can no longer be mentioned" site self-destructed (screw you Spez!) that at least a few of us would make it here!

Everybody's back to random chaos after switching... I don't think there's a lot of "subbed" focus around here yet in general, much less people dedicated to an individual sub...

We're all enjoying exploring the wild west still. The individual subs will happen again eventually. Maybe.

Thanks for the quick response - it was getting lonely in here!

I don't own an airstream (with this inflation, are you serious?!), but I wish you the best of luck. Hope you don't get.. ants? Is that a thing airstream owners might wish each other?

New ones are definitely in the realm of "no freaking way on that price!" - but an older one is a bit easier to swallow.

I will say, after showing my favorite wife a BUNCH of other brands (new ones) and then showing her the Airstreams - there really was no comparison.

The pic I posted above for what I just got - that Airstream is literally 20-years old...and something I spent a couple of years saving/budgeting.

If that's a lifestyle you're after, it can be done - I am by no-means wealthy...but I do tend to spend more for quality purchases versus "close enough".

Yes yes the reason I can not afford this $100k vehicle is the pesky recent Inflation obviously why are you asking? 🥲
