Yes they do, at least as far back as 69, possibly further.
By using a pressure regulator at the faucet you are also protecting your
supply hose. I have a 100 lb pressure guage on a hose fitting. On a few
occasions I have seen the gauge pegged when hooked to the campground faucet.
Your airstream will also have an overpressure safety valve.( or at least
my 70 does) If the regulator isn't doing the job this will open and release
the pressure.
I bought a water pressure safety valve before I learned that there was
one in my Airstream already. When I use it, I find that the water pressure
in the trailer is severely reduced.
