I want an Airstream. It would be cool and maybe useful.
I would like to keep it parked in my driveway, so I need to think about whether it would fit or not.
Diagram of Possible Parking Arrangements of the Airstream at my House
I think I'd like to park the Airstream in a 21 x 16ft space in my driveway. I'm thinking that it might be okey to park it like this:
Honestly,I wish I could park it horizontally and parallel to my house, like in the image below, because it looks good, but I don't think it is possible.
Since I can't park it horizontally, I wish I could park it vertically in relation to my house and with the side lined up along the edge of the walkway. It would probably look great that way too, but I don't think it would work.
It is easy to imagine potential parking arrangements when only taking into account the Airstream.However, actually parking the Airstream is more complicated because a driver in the vehicle towing it will have to back it into the parking space.
How Should We Park It?
The Airstream and the vehicle towing it have a combined length of about 33ft. To decide whether a parking arrangement would work or not, it is not enough to just compare the parking space and the Airstream.
For further research
Would it be possible to park the Airstream when it is connected to towing vehicle?
My home is in a residential area. The street in front of my house is only 19.5ft wide, so I wouldn't be able to park along the edge of the parking space.
It would also be impossible to park the Airstream parallel to the street.
I would move it move it by hand if it were light, but it weight 3,000lbs.
Additionally, I want to park a car in that parking space.
I still need to think about whether I could park the Airstream diagonally and still have space for another car.
For further research
Would it still have space for another vehicle if I parked the Airstream in my driveway?
If the space I have planned won't work, then I might have to think about modifying my garden or another space to make room for the Airstream. However, I hope I won't have to do that.
Summary
I am making a list of questions needing further research. What should do I do if I can't park it my driveway? I am so confused. So, I'd better do some more research.
