Farewell T@B

Mercator

Hi All,

I just wanted to write a quick note to let everyone here on the forum how much I have appreciated the specific help when requested and the wealth of other knowledge that has lead to several great years with our T@B and some wonderful trips.  We have especially fond memories of Tearstock 2015 and will miss them.

However, after long and thoughtful consideration we decided to trade in our T@B-Q and purchased a new Airstream Bambi Sport 16' which we will be picking up in a few weeks. We plan on doing more long trips including lots of boon docking.  If you see a Jeep pulling a small Airstream somewhere in your travels give you and your T@B a wave, it will likely be me.

I will likely continue to check in to this forum from time to time as the information shared here is always very useful.

Happy trails, Ray & Vida. Best to you!

Safe travels and happy camping! Our Teardrop group includes a 16' Bambi in our eclectic mix of campers. It's a fabulous camper, you'll love it! Please stop by and share your travels occasionally. I know the Airstream community is as passionate as the T@B/T@G ones and you'll spend lots of time with yet another wonderful forum community. Enjoy!!

Safe travels, Ray and Vida!  I'll keep your card to remind me of all of the wonderful
advice you've given the forum members.  It was certainly nice meeting you last year and I hope to meet you on the road. Be careful!

Don`t leave.
We would like to hear more from you, especially concerning your new Airstream.
Let us know how it compares to the T@B as far as quality goes.
How does it pull?. How is it layed out inside, and how comfortable is it.
I have been eyeballing the Bambie myself.
In your opinion, does the quality justify the cost, etc.?.
I know, you bought one, but we would like to hear your opinion on
this trailer after you have had time to learn it and get use to it.

We pick up the new Bambi in a couple of weeks as it is in the lineup for production at the factory in Jackson Center OH.  I will report back, but I think the only way to justify the cost of an Airstream is because you want one. LOL : )

It's funny, if it were just me the Bambi would be close to perfect. I like the separation between the bed and the dinette. The bed would be awfully small for the two of us, I fear..

I believe there are at least 2 sizes of the Bambi series starting at the 16' one. Not sure if the beds are different though. We have one of each size in our camping group. We had one gathering where the 16' footer was set up as the Bambi Bar and Grill (complete with gaudy lights that would make PXL shiver). Although, PXL might not have cared about the lights after the bartender made him a few TearDrop Specials.
