Airstream® founder Wally Byam was born in 1896, and grew up on a sheep farm living in a wooden wagon. It housed everything he needed, which set the stage for the creation of his first travel trailer.Byam and his first wife Marion enjoyed camping, but she struggled with sleeping on the ground. In 1929, he set up a tent on top of a Model T chassis and later replaced it with a permanent shelter for her to be more comfortable, which enjoyed a positive reception among other travelers. Soon his neighbors asked him to build similar trailers. He saw such success that in 1931 he opened up the first Airstream® factory.
Over the years, Airstream® trailers continued pursuing innovation and improvement. In 1958, for example, the company released the first "self-contained" travel trailer. This model didn't rely on external hookups, which allowed for greater freedom of travel. In 1969 Airstream® trailers underwent a redesign, which resulted in the iconic silver bullet shape that is so iconic for the brand today. In 1974, the company expanded their product offering to include more than just Airstream® travel trailers. It offered the Argosy motorhome, which set the stage for other motorhome models down the road. By 2006, 65% of the Airstream® trailers that were made in the company's history were still on the road! Airstream® travel trailers today stay true to Byam's vision of creating durable, quality trailers for the average consumer.
