I have never heard of them before( not surprising in Australia, therr are so many Caravan Manufacturers)
Well they are trying to get a nostalgia thing going with the White Wall tires.They are made almost completely out of wood. The company mainly buiilds cabins in a Swedish style
Cabin maker produces unique Caravan

How heavy is that TT?. I have heard from others (second hand) that airstreams are like baking ovens in hot summers without AC. Even in hot summer my non working AC 28-foot TT Trail Cruiser with standard TT exterior walls and rubber roof ceiling was comfortable with a fan/s and open windows. Slept well indeed. Yup.

Do not give many details. This sort of Caravan is in the Caraboat catergory, odd but some people will like it

At least it’s aerodynamic. [emoticon] Hate to see the fuel bill towing this around.

Most of the RVs I've seen from Australia are attractive and stylish inside and out. This one is the complete opposite.

I think I am missing something. How is this connected to Airstream?

Airstream is made of alloy this is made of heavy timber, both different from a conventional Travel Trailer in the US

I would agree, doubt to many would want to buy it. As successful as Airstream was in Australia a few sold and converted into Mobile Offices for charities etc,
