    Mike: Is your Air Stream ready and completed? I assume the AS will be your trailer of choice here on out?

    Dan:

    My Airstream is fully functional, and is really a portable hunting lodge. I plan a series of 'improvements' that will take a year or two to complete.

    The OR trailer is about 5 years old, and is not pristine enough for use at shows and exhibitions. I am in the planning stages of a new trailer to replace it. Dunno which way I will go yet.

    An OR trailer has advantages - significant ones - as you know. The Airstream also offers advantages... particularly when I am in Montana or Oregon for weeks at a time with the dogs.

    Boy, that is tempting. A shame it is on the wrong side of the country from me! Good luck on the sale.

    One more bump. Have buyers but no money yet.

    I prefer not to sell this on Craig's List.

    I too am interested in a trailer - having a very hard time seeing how a new off road trailer is worth $8K with no motor... but I am willing to learn.

    More pictures would be helpful

    Chance favors the prepared mind.

    All cowardice comes from not loving, or not loving well, which is the same thing. EH
