Default My Airstream

Sweet Setup.. I have a 31' airstream excella 500 i'm planning on cutting and shortening to be around 20' long.. Huge project.. my Dodge ram 2500 got crushed by a tree so I think i'm going to my Airstream shorter to allow my jeep to pull it. It has been done before.. huge project. Lmk what you think of the Idea.

DONT DESTROY YOURS!!!!!! See if you can find someone that will trade or see what you can sell yours for and what you could buy a smaller one for.
