2015-12-01 RVIA RV Trade Show

Went to the RVIA Trade show with a friend and got a great sneak-peek at what's coming for 2016! The wife & I are interested in the new Airstream Flying Cloud 26U Twin bed floor plan (yes, we're thinking about buying an Airstream) and they had the first one produced there at the show so got a few pictures of that as well as a short video that I posted to YouTube. The video is too big to add to this blog post but if you search "Airstream 26U Twin" it'll come up in the results. A few pictures of some other upcoming 2016 RV's, too...

The Airstream 26U Twin...

 
 


 
 
 
 
 

 
 
Me taken a couple of months ago in a 26U Queen bed at Haydocy Airstream in Columbus -
 

 
 Here's the new 2016 Airstream "Pendleton" limited edition. Only 100 being made. It has the rear opening similar to the discontinued Eddie Bauer edition




 
 
 
 
 
 
Here's the all new for 2016 Little Guy/Pleasant Valley Trailer's T@G 6-Wide


The new 2016 Winnebago Fuse. It's built on the Ford Transit chassis. They call it a Class C but looks more like a B to me. It's diesel but they're to be coming out with a gas version later in 2016. I like it!
 



 
This thing is way cool! It's an RV concept from a start-up in New Zealand. I don't see it getting off the ground, though, because there are no campgrounds with sites that would accommodate opening it up into it's "L" shape, plus the cost (!), when I asked the price range he said "...in the upper hundreds of thousands..." !!!! Yea, good luck with that, silly boy...This was a scale model he had at the show and a Photo Shopped image of it placed in some scenery.



 
This is Lance Campers newest trailer for 2016. Instead of a dinette it has two recliners with an end table between them. Love the idea. Hope more RV mfg's go to this concept.

2015 Little Guy Tearstock Rally

I went solo to the Little Guy rally this week. Carie had a trip to Oregon planned so kind of separate vacations although that wasn't the original plan, it just kind of fell together that way...long story...Anywhoo, I caught up with some old friends and met some new friends at the rally. Good times had by all!. I took a few pictures, mostly of the campers. Enjoy...
