Hey there, fellow adventurers! If you’ve been yearning for the perfect travel companion to hit the road with, look no further than Airstream’s single-axle travel trailers. These little wonders are not just expertly designed and handcrafted, but they’re also light enough to be easily towed by mid-sized trucks and SUVs. Don’t let their smaller size fool you; these trailers pack a punch and offer all the comforts of home, making them the ultimate road trip partners.
Now, we all know that sometimes, big isn’t necessarily better. That’s precisely the case with Airstream’s single-axle models, where big adventures come in small packages. Whether you’re a seasoned camper or new to the game, these trailers are perfect for upgrading from traditional tents or car camping and stepping into the world of RV travel.
So, what do we have on the menu for you? Let me introduce you to our three fantastic single-axle model lines: Bambi, Caravel, and Basecamp. Each one has its unique charm, and together, they cater to every travel style imaginable.
The Mobile Magic of Tow Vehicles
Imagine this – cruising down the highway, the open road ahead of you, and your trusty single-axle Airstream in tow. Thanks to their lightweight and aerodynamic design, these trailers make towing a breeze. They can be easily towed by mid-sized trucks and SUVs, giving you the flexibility to choose the vehicle you already have in your driveway.
And talk about maneuverability! These little champs can glide through campgrounds and fit into tighter spots, so you don’t have to miss out on those picture-perfect camping locations. Their low center of gravity also adds to their stability while on the move, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey.
Hand Made Craftsmanship That Lasts a Lifetime
Here at Airstream, we take craftsmanship seriously. Each of our single-axle models is lovingly hand-built in Jackson Center, Ohio, drawing on over 90 years of expertise. While some automation helps with efficiency and quality, the majority of the work is done by our skilled craftspeople. From premium chassis construction to the iconic riveted aluminum shell, our trailers are built to stand the test of time and be passed down to future generations.

While these models share similarities, each one has its unique flair that sets it apart from the others. Let’s dive into the differences:
