Airstream Changes By Model Year

Hello Everyone. Over the years I have slowly been putting together my own document to track all the changes Airstream makes to the trailers. When I was first looking to purchase a used trailer I didn't know which model years to look for, and decided to start building my own "one safe source" for this type of information. As I have searched around it seems others could utilize this information as well. I have decided to share it so everyone can benefit, and hopefully create an even better document with everyone's input. I have created a google sheets document which anyone can view (and I can edit to avoid it getting messed up). I have most of the changes for the past 10 years, but if anyone has any input for older models, or corrections to what I have please post it here, and I can update the document. I am sorry I have never been interested in the vans so I never tracked that info, but we can add it if others can supply it to me. I hope this is useful to others, please let me know what you think.

We had a 2014 FC that had the SeeLevel II Tank Monitor and it was standard, not an upgrade. Our 2013 FC had the MicroPulse Tank Monitor on it that I changed out. So I think the SeeLevel II became standard in 2014, not 2015.

Thanks DoubleR, I went and looked at the 2014 Airstream sales brochures, 2014 classifieds, and 2014 "window stickers" and you are indeed correct some trailers did have the See Level 2. I also found many that had the Micropulse in 2014 also. I am guessing 2014 was the actual changeover year and so the use of the different systems was mixed in 2014. Airstream also has a tenancy to put "next model year items" in the later built trailers of the previous year as they exhaust old stocks. I have added a note to the spreadsheet identifying that.

Thanks so much for the feedback!

Great information! Maybe you can clarify why I just purchased a 2021 Globtrotter but according to the vin number the 'M' stands for model year 1991? How can that be?
