Beside regular maintenance, the only new addition has been tires. The fluid is readily available and it only takes a few minutes to add 2.5 gallons. It seems to go through DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) a lot faster than normal, but by now we are used to getting the warning and finding a nearby auto parts store or even a large gas station that keeps it in stock. We average about 16 miles per gallon towing 3,600 pounds of trailer. Our 2013 E2-generation Porsche Cayenne Diesel? It has been our stalwart road warrior. This one was totally on me it was not my best moment. Yep, sliced off the AC – but it was a clean slice! – the structure of the Airstream Nest suffered zero damage. For instance, looking out for low clearance, like a cable stretching across a parking lot.
Some of the lessons are easy, like remembering to take all your tools – yes all of them! Some are hard. But here we are, into the back half of our first year camping we have learned a few lessons along the way and keep learning them every time we head out. We travelled to Wisconsin from our home in Denton, Texas to pick up our Airstream Nest and you can read about our adventures (or misadventures) here. Or if you want to talk to your neighbors, you can always shout! If you do not want to interact with anyone else, no problem.
You pull into your spot, get your stuff set up and chill. During COVID, camping makes it easy to social distance. We bought a travel trailer so we could get out of the house and go places.
Back in July 2020, my wife and I were going stir crazy so we decided to do something about it. Nine months during COVID feels like two years.
