Motoring Essentials

properly�
2� Carry driver’s license�
3� In Canada, bring along a non-residence liability
insurance card and your birth certificate.
4� In Mexico, you must have special auto insurance�
5� Carry an extra set of the ignition and truck keys in
a separate pocket, or in your wallet�
6�
Keep an operating flashlight with fresh batteries in
the glove compartment�
7� Pack the trunk so that you can reach the tools and
spare tire without completely unpacking�
8� Keep sharp or hard articles securely packed,
wherever they may be�
9�
Carry a first-aid kit.
10� Carry your pet’s dish, food, leash, and health and
registration papers�
Overnight Stop
Airstream owners have parked virtually in every place
imaginable, from filling stations to farmlands. In time,
you’ll develop a knack for spying wonderful little
roadside locations by turning off the main highway and
exploring�
There are many modern parks, including State, County,
and Federal parks with good facilities where you
might obtain hookups of electrical, water, and sewer
connections� Directories are published which describe
in detail these parks and tell what is available in the
way of services and hookups�
On overnight or weekend trips, chances are you will
not use up the capacity of the sewage holding tank,
deplete the water supply, or run down the batteries that
supply the 12-volt current�
On a longer trip, when you have stayed where sewer
connections and utility hookups were not available, it
will be necessary for you to stop from time to time to
dispose of the waste in the holding tank and replenish
the water supply� Many truck stops and gas stations,
chain and individually owned, have installed sanitary
dumping stations for just this purpose� Booklets are
available that list these dumping stations�
When stopping for the night, your Airstream is built
to be safely parked in any spot that is relatively level
and where the ground his firm. Your facilities are with
you� You are self-contained� Unless the tow vehicle
is needed for transportation, it is not necessary to
unhitch�
WARNING
At each campsite, make sure you have not parked
in such a manner as to block the operation of the
escape window by being too close to trees, fences,
or other impediments. Scenic views are one reason
for traveling, but don’t park so the beautiful lake or
steep cliff is just outside your escape window.
Choose the most level parking spot possible�
Stabilizing jacks or blocks may not be required for
an overnight stay� However, if you put the jack pad
on the hitch jack and run the hitch jack down to take
the weight off the tow vehicle’s springs, it will provide
some stability� If you must park on a slope, park facing
downhill� It is easier to level the trailer this way�
All you need to do to enjoy the self-contained luxury
of your Airstream is to turn on the LPG and light any
appliance pilot lights�
Before moving on, check your campsite, both for
cleanliness and also, to be sure you haven’t left
anything behind� Turn off the gas supply and make
sure everything is properly stowed� Use your pre-travel
check list and you are ready for more travel adventure�
Extended Stay
Making a long trip in your Airstream is not very different
from making a weekend excursion� Since everything
you need is right at hand, you are at home wherever
you go� When packing for an extended trip, take
everything you need, but only what you need�
When you plan to stay in the same place for several
days, weeks, or months, you will want your trailer to
be as level and steady as possible� Check the attitude
with a small spirit level set on the inside work counter
or the trailer hitch A-frame� If a correction is necessary,
you must level from side-to-side first. This can be done
easily by backing the trailer up onto one or more 2 x 6
boards� We do not recommend placing tires in a hole
for leveling�
