Must Things To Buy $$$$$
Posted On March 15, 2019
Well – There is no doubt that the purchase of your new (used) Airstream is just the beginning of the BIG investment. There are things we buy because we WANT to and then there are thing we MUST buy to equip and outfit the Airstream to make the whole experience work. Below is our MUST list:
- Champion Dual Fuel 3400 watt Inverter Generator
- Beech Lane Levelers (x2)
- Haloview Backup/Reverse View Camera
- Ohuhu 12.5 Telescopic Ladder
- Cable Security Locks (x2 for generator & surge protector)
- TST Tire Pressure Monitor System
- Oxygenics 26481 Brushed Nickel Body Spa Shower Kit
- Dogbone Circuit Analyzer and Surge Protector
- 30amp-15amp Dogbone
- 50amp-30amp Dogbone
- Water Fill Filter
- Grey/Black Water Hose (25′)
- 25′ 30amp Extension Cord
- Bal X-Chocks (x2)
- Fasmov Solid Rubber Heavy Duty Wheel Chock (x2)
- 21 Gal ‘Portable’ Waste Holding Tank
- Camco Sewer Hose Kit
- Camco 43051 RV 20′ Sidewinder Plastic Sewer Hose Support
- Zero-G Freshwater Hose (25’x2)
- Stabilizer Pads (x8)
- Universal Electrical Connector Storage
- 6 Gal Water Jug
- Trimax Wheel Chock Locks (General Security)
- Coupler Vault Lock (Storage Security)
- Viair 40047 400P-RV Automatic Portable Compressor Kit
- Weight Distribution System with Anti Sway (we have Reese Dual Cam System)
- LevelMatePRO or RV Leveler 4 or Hopkins RV Battery Powered Smart-Level (most to least expensive we have RV Leveler 4 and the Hopkins as a backup)
- Wheel Covers to protect the tires from the sun when trailer is in storage/campsite
I would like to say “That’s It” but to be truthful, it’s just the beginning of the “Money Pit” ?

Brick and Mona are avid Boondockers, love "Glamping" but still like to experience the down and dirty off grid camping - look for us and say hi. We are easy to spot just look for 25 feet of shiny Air-Aluminium towed by a Dragon Red F-150HD FX4.

Just stumbled onto your site thru airstream forums and I’m impressed!
We are picking up our new 23 ft FB in May from Can Am in London Ont and we want to be connected to Canadian resources as much as possible.
We plan to head west in August and leave our trailer in Alberta or BC, any ideas on suitable storage sites in either province would be great to know. thanks! Richard Greer

I am sure you will enjoy your Airstream travels – we sure have! Unfortunately liability won’t allow me recommend one specific storage location. I would suggest you read our Post on security from theft.
