The average rating is 4.2, but that number hides a lot, since a few big stores have thousands of reviews and some smaller ones have just a handful. Here is what you should know before you drive out to see a shiny silver trailer.

All eight dealerships in Ohio handle Airstream, and seven of them offer financing. That is a good sign if you are not paying cash. Seven also sell used Airstreams, which matters because a gently used one can save you real money. Six carry Class A motorhomes, five have camper vans, toy haulers, pop-ups, and consignment units, and two stock teardrops. If you want a truck camper or a park model, you will not find one here. The mix leans toward travel trailers and motorhomes, so decide which floor plan you actually want before you start driving.
The big names are Camping World and Mark Wahlberg Airstream & RV. Camping World has stores in Rossford, Akron, and a Forest River RV location that also sells Airstreams. Those three stores have the most reviews by far, from 1,001 to 2,689, so you can read a lot of owner experiences before you go. Mark Wahlberg has a Cleveland store and another location, both with solid ratings. Airstream of Dayton is a smaller, specialized dealer with a perfect 5.0 rating from just three reviews. That is too few to judge fairly, but it might be worth a call if you are near Dayton.
Airstreams hold their value, so compare new and used prices carefully. Get pre-approved for financing from your own bank before you talk numbers at the dealership; seven of these eight offer financing, but you can still use your own. Ask for a pre-purchase inspection on any used unit, even from a dealer. At delivery, do a full walk-through and test every system: water, propane, electrical, and the refrigerator on both gas and electric. If you are buying off-season, you may have more room to negotiate. And check the service department's schedule, because Airstream service can book out weeks ahead.
There are eight Airstream dealerships in Ohio. Seven of them offer financing and seven sell used units, so you have options for both new and pre-owned shopping.
