2007 Airstream Basecamp 16 ft — Lightweight Adventure Trailer for Active Travelers
Experience freedom on the open road with the 2007 Airstream Basecamp 16 ft, a compact, lightweight travel trailer designed for explorers who want modern Airstream quality in a rugged, minimalist package. Built in collaboration with Nissan Design America, the Basecamp blends iconic aluminum styling with functional design made for hauling gear, camping off-grid, and embracing the outdoors.
Smart Layout & Key Features:
Front — Convertible Dinette
At the front of the Basecamp, a booth dinette provides comfortable seating for meals, work, or socializing. When evening comes, the dinette easily converts into a sleeping area, offering a versatile use of space in this 16-foot layout.
Mid-Section — Functional Kitchen
The midsection features a compact but capable galley kitchen, complete with a two-burner range, stainless steel sink, and storage cabinets for cookware and essentials. It’s a simple, efficient setup ideal for making meals on the go.
Rear — Gear-Friendly Sleeping Area
In the rear, two facing benches provide seating by day and convert into a full-size 76" × 76" bed by night. The tables stow neatly inside the benches, creating a large, flat sleeping surface or cargo area. A large rear hatch opens wide for loading bikes, kayaks, or camping equipment directly into the trailer.
Storage for Every Adventure
Designed with outdoor enthusiasts in mind, the Basecamp 16 includes closets, hampers, and ceiling-mounted bungee storage — perfect for securing tents, duffels, and other gear. Every inch of space is optimized for adventure.
