Waddles with Nacho
I felt chinspired by @LebamDawg’s RV adventures and sold some velveeta stock to purchase an Airstream. It turns out Airstream is the only RV company that uses a reinforced steel frame capable of holding my weight.
Mrs Nacho and I have been toying with this idea for a while now and after renting an Airstream for a couple days in August, we went back to the dealership and made a deposit. We’re both 49 and pretty much retired so we figured why wait? We’re not going full tim like @LebamDawg but we will take it on some long road trips to New Mexico for the Peyote and Utah for the arm pit sex.
We picked it on Friday and drove it home yesterday. This is my first RV and while I’ve driven trucks in the Army and towed some smaller trailers, it’s quite a difference to be responsible for your own trailer - especially one that costs $100k+. I spent the first 90 minutes of our drive home on state highways until I felt comfortable enough with how things handed before getting on the interstate.
I’ll add to this post as we take it out and about but until then, this is it. And here’s a fucking picture.

And one thing I learned yesterday on the drive home, there’s a place called Ballstown in Indiana.

The Throbber is available for regularly scheduled maintenance on Mrs. @CFetters_Nacho_Lover and Mabel.
Mostly lube -oil and filter optional.
@Doog_de_Jour already called dibs.

We rented a 23' Flying Cloud at the end of August. It was nice but we determined that it was the perfect size for 1 person. 
I have a weight distribution hitch that helps with towing. My truck still feels under powered though so I’ll be working on convincing Mrs Nacho to upgrade.
All that said, we took her (the trailer, not Mrs Nacho) out on first camping trip today. I’m just now sitting down to drink a beer after we arrived about 2 hours ago.
We’re on the Kentucky River about an hour from Lexington and Kroger Field (#myCats). Nice campground. I think a lot of the folks here would love the Tug and voted for Trump.
One of the first things I noticed driving in was one of @89ute’s sister wives sister and husband are also here.

One think I noticed about RV park culture. Not a lot of libtrards. I like chatting up the guys with the $750k rigs. Most of them have a decent story. And it usually doesn’t involve going to womens marches and wearing pussy hats
