That little orange sticker under the entry door pull handle says so. Until 1994, ownership of the Argosy, Argosy motorhome, along with the Landyacht trailer and motorhome was "unacceptable" to qualify for club membership. Kind of a red headed step child. Of course Airstream delighted in using them for experiments in production. Those glorious big front windows were used in the Argosy five years before you saw them in an Airstream. If you wanted a motorhome before 1979 it would have to be an Argosy. But now all is forgiven and "us" Argosy owners are good enough to be included. ;) As the book says, it's the history of Airstreams, not of the company.
