Airstream Travel Trailers - Ratings & Reviews

Airstream has been around since the 1930’s getting its start in Los Angeles, California. The founder, Wallace Byam, led the company through some difficult times including the great depression. During the 1930’s Wallace experimented with aircraft type construction methods to lessen wind resistance and improved the trailer’s strength-to-weight ratio. His designs began taking on a more aerodynamic and contemporary look. On January 17, 1936, the Airstream Trailer Co. introduced the Clipper, and an American legend was born.

Airstream was the first to utilize riveted aluminum for their exteriors producing an extremely durable product and creating a unique look which has an almost cult-like following throughout the United States. According to Airstream they have never stopped building “the better trailer” and 60% of all Airstreams are still on the road today, which is an amazing feat.

A common mistake with most new RV buyers is that the floor plan is the most important aspect in their RV purchase. It is estimated that over 90% of new RV buyers focus more on floor plans than anything else.

In contrast, most experienced or educated RV buyers focus on the chassis or frame, drive train, engine, suspension and exterior construction when selecting a particular RV model.

Bottom line - What’s underneath your motorhome, trailer or fifth wheel is the most important aspect and should take top priority in your decision process. Focusing on these important features will ultimately determine how satisfied you are with your purchase.
