Hello Don,

I have 4 '50s Aristreams and two of them are 22'. Do you know how to differentiate between the models. The 55 is a rear twin bed with a dinette on the side and a front bath and kitchen. It is one of the most homey and livable of all the trailers because the dinette is permanent and the beds are, too. No set up involved really for activities. If
you make your beds up they form a rear living room. The other ('56) is the most recent addition -- it is a rear double and rear bath with a standard front sofa.  The other two are easy, a 58 Bubble and a 56 Overlander. Just don't have names on the other two and am curious as to what they should be called. The 55 twenty two footer is more simple and less luxurious than the 56, if that is any indication. I really am happy with all four and want to get all systems working in them all. Be glad of any information you can provide.

Tom,

Your 55 sounds like the same floor plan as my 54 22 foot Safari. Does it also have 3 windows on the poad side? ( Panorama window) I agree that it is the most liveable floor plan of the 3 I have.
Stove under the front window, sink on right barhroom in left. Door hinged on the front, instead of suicide fashion.

I don't know if the model names carried into 55 but I do have literature to confirm it was a safari in 54.
