In-depth Review of Airstream's SMALLEST Trailer! - 2025 Airstream Caravel 16RB

[@neilholland6558]

Another great review. I miss my Caravel all the time. I do love my 23FBT International but that Caravel was so easy to park, tow, maintain, etc. etc. I could get it into the most tight camping spots out there. Only reason we upgraded to twins, is we grew tired of crawling over each other in the Caravel. That being said, It is still my favorite Airstream Trailer.

Thank You Chad For Really Focusing On The Awning Fully Showcasing The Operation Of The Canopy Function All The Way Around The RV.

We just picked up our 2025 and noticed that they changed the window seals. Maybe the new style of seals will prevent the windows from sticking.

On the wet bath... I watch on UTube tours of house boats, yachts etc. Amazing how many have a wet bath.

What an advantage to be living in NC and be this close to a dealer like this. I'm in Louisville so I'm limited to Woodland in Indy and Mark Wahlberg in Columbus. Neither make content like you. Great video as always. This is the year and model I want. Any chance Caravel goes to 3,000 watt inverter or soft start AC?

Thank you!! Don't forget that you can still work with me! You're only about 7 hours from Greensboro. You're able to do warranty servoce work at any Airstream Dealership. On the Caravel, I don't foresee them at the 3k inverter and soft starts from the factory. I think the smallest floorplan you're going to see that on is the 23FB Trade Wind.

Thanks very much - planning to buy one - question - the rock guards in the front - I assume that white coating is only temporary protective coating since it is brand new but on purchase it would be removed and have the plain metal showing - obviously that looks a lot better - am I right?

[@ChadsRVReviews]

You’re correct!

[@ddiluccio]

Thanks - I am planning to tow it with my Jeep Wrangler (4 door) - towing capacity is 3500 lbs - I know that trailer is right at that limit - I wouldn’t have anything else in it - would tow it completely dry - do you see any issue?

[@ChadsRVReviews]

@@ddiluccio That would be pushing it. The Bambi 16rb is 3150. Is only one I would probably recommend. That's also assuming that your Jeep is fully stock without any added lift kits or bigger tires. That's still going to push a little.

[@slowstepswithjune]

Audi q5 can tow this?

[@ChadsRVReviews]

Most likely

[@draecath5953]

That would be pushing it. A q7 would no problem but the tongue weight may be over the q5's limits. Fully loaded you are getting real close to the max tow numbers too. Basically it may tow it but it probably wouldn't be an enjoyable experience and could cause a lot of extra wear.

I thought they were called buck rivets, not butt rivets. (butt rivets sounds funnier though)

[@ChadsRVReviews]

I also thought he's been saying "butt rivets," turns out he's been saying "buck" this whole time! - Laura

Don't like kitchen design😊

47 mins? Yeah no. Try 1/2 that
