New Airstream BaseCamp?

[No Pvmt]

Has anyone seen the new Basecamp? Airstream and Nissan put it together. They run loaded around $27K They look nice in the pamplet. Does the Fleetwood Evolution fair better?

i am not a huge fan of pop up campers.

EDIT. this is all i could find quickly. looks pretty cool. http://www.gmsrv.com/all_airstream_news.htm

I second and third that, Garrett. The Airstream is the only item I would own with the name "Bambi" that isn't mounted on my wall. Man, those things are just gorgeous.

Funny you should say about the BaseCamp, I just recently looked them up...and fell in love. The style of it is really neat, looks a lot more rugged then some of the other more upscale models. Minus a toilet/shower, which is a big negative for that price IMHO, but still a damn fine trailer. What I heard is they are trying to keep the price under $20k.

This link has some nice photos:

I have seen it in person at this years Chicago autoshow. It was back in the corner hooked up up to the Nissan. Fit and finish on it looked pretty good. It is really pretty cool looking.
Here is the one they had there:

They look nice, the only thing is that the wife wuld like a shower and toilet. The Bambi is awesome, however could you get it into back country? The Basecamp may be better but I wonder what the clearence would be.

It looks pretty neat, but like already noted, it needs a bathroom. Actually, my only real need in a trailer would be bathroom and kitchen. If someone could build something really cool that only addressed those two items, I'd be the first in line

I used to really dislike Airstreams, don't really know why, i just didn't like them at all. Then one day, after having been into Rovers for awhile, I saw another Airstream at a campground, and fell in love. Weird, did a complete 180... The jsut seemed to be a perfect match.

So I've been wanting a Bambi myself for awhile now, but it's far down on the priority list. Every so often, I do browse the Airstream site. Saw the Base Camp on it. At first, I thought it'd be a good idea, but after looking at it, not having a bathroom, etc., I decided an Evolution would probably be a better bet, 'least til I could get into a Bambi...

If you go to their site, you can download a brochure on 'em:

good lord Leslie..........that avatar actually does look like you. for real. that is freaky.

lol.... before the latest board revision, I had avatars and signatures turned off. People would make comments about avatars, so I'd have to go look at profiles to see what they were referring to. So, I decided to turn them on.

Then, I started noticing that I didn't have one.... So, I started ponderin'.... don't like myself in photos, the Series is still in the driveway and I didn't want a driveway pic, so, what to do, what to do....

Yeah, I think it works. The South Park version of me. Yeah, that works.

PS: Actually, I made some for the entire family.

Remember Laura? Don't think you met Amanda, my older daughter, but I did her, and Alex and Abby too. It really is eerie how accurate they ended up being.....
