Airstream began with a single man and most singular dream. The man was Wally Byam. His dream: to build the perfect travel trailer. One that would move like a stream of air. One that would provide first-class living accommodations anywhere in the world. Thus, 80 years ago, the first Airstream trailer was born. And with it was born yet another dream - a dream of new freedom, new places, new experiences, and new friendships. It was a dream so powerful, so enduring that it did far more than create a new way of travel; it created a new way of life shared by thousands upon thousands of families. The Airstream philosophy has always been and will always be, Let's not make any changes -- let's make only improvements!" Every inch of an Airstream has a functional purpose. There is no planned obsolescence. This is as true in today's models as it was of the first Airstream to see the light of the open road. The classic Airstream of the 1930's is no museum piece. Still in use today, it is as sturdy and modern in appearance as its very first day. As a result, an Airstream is always "in style" -- conceived and constructed as a lifetime investment in happiness.
