3. Durability and Reliability
According to Airstream, an estimated 60 to 70% of all Airstreams ever made are still in use today. Built like airplanes, with aluminum panels riveted together to create a durable structure atop a sturdy steel frame, there is no doubt that Airstreams are made to last.
Our 1999 Airstream Safari is in far better condition than any other rival travel trailer of a similar age.
We’ve never had any leaks, all the original systems still work great, there are no slides to break or fail, the aluminum roof will last forever, and unlike the exterior of other RVs that fade and need new paint jobs over time, the aluminum skin can be polished to look like new.
You can find many examples of Airstreams restored to like-new condition, like this one owned by Kristin and Jason Snow.
