Airstream Pickup Campers?

Question:
Airstream Pickup Campers?I've seen a couple of these glorious-looking Aistream (or Aistream-shaped, anyway) aluminum pickup-mounted campers going around, usually on good-sized trucks. Does anybody have one of these or know anything useful about them? How they're set up inside, etc? I assume none are built anymore, and there don't even seem to be that many around. I also assume they're too big for a compact Toyota-type pickup. I've been fantasizing the last few days about buying an early 15-footish trailer and attaching it to a small 4WD pickup with the box removed. Am I utterly insane?


Answer:
You may be legally sane but yer idea is crazy. The physical construiction of Airstreams is such that the thing would collapse like the Hindenberg if you cut away enuf to fit it on a pickup - or else the p'up would do a stationary wheelie - or both. BTW if Airstream ever made a p'up camper I don't know about it. Of course, there is a lot of stuff I don't know! Will KD3XR ---- the Curmudgeon of Sill Hill Before flaming, pause. I post to help rv'ers and annoy morons. Whichever shoe fits, wear it.
