What does this sticker mean?

Its probably just a marketing sticker, that unit might have a few non-standard options that were bundled for that package. Here in the Pacific NW I see "Northwest Edition" on different units to signify the "might" be better equipped for winter or as is often the case they slap on some diamond plate up front to deal with rocks. With the year you might be able to google for a brochure that has more info.

Ha, that's so funny Y-Guy... My trailer says exactly "Northwest Edition" and has the diamond plate up front.. :)

I Googled it before posting and it didn't help. Found an owners manual from a 1995 and "Rocky Mountain Unit" wasnt listed for that particular model year. The one I'm looking at is a 1997.

My take is that it means nothing of any substance.
Graphics, interior decor, stuff like that.

We, like MitchF150 had a Fleetwood Prowler, "Northwest Edition," that was no different that any other Fleetwood Prowler except graphics.

Avion was originally started up in the 1950's with a goal to build a trailer that was better than Airstream, which was the king of the road back then. One part of competing with Airstream was to create their own owners' club, which they named "Avion Travelcade", and intended to match up with Airstream's Wally Byam club. My guess is that the sticker with a number and 'Rocky Mountain Unit' refers to the trailer's membership number and organizational unit within the "Avion Travelcade" club. Interesting history for this company, and if you are a fan of vintage trailers, a good one to get your hands on. Interesting to note that Avion offered a lifetime warranty for the original owner... not something you'd ever see today.

It's a pipeliners unit I do believe

Doing some quick research on the Internet, Rocky Mountain Unit is a way of measuring acreage into "units" or grids, which are then designated for oil rig placements. I'm guessing... so they won't be placed to close to each other?

Maybe the previous owner of the camper worked with this

Rocky Mountain Unit Mineral Agreement 1

Rocky Mountain Unit Revised agreement.

Federal Unitization PDF... go down about half way into the document.

Maybe the previous owner of the camper worked for the Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation, or one of those organizations or companies that regulate oil and gas production. The sticker on the back of the camper is, kind of like, him showing he's a member or an employee. It has nothing to do with the camper.


I'm just guessing, but it's possible it has nothing to do with the camper, and everything to do with the previous owner.

Officially, and I always speak officially, the "Rocky Mountain Unit" sticker is used on RVs when the company runs out of the "Beachview Special Unit" and "Great Lakes Unit" stickers.

^^^^^^When I purchased my first 5er. a Holiday Rambler, upon registering they sent me set of numbered decals to be placed on the front which signified the numerical number it was since manufacturing began. The also registered me into the Holiday Rambler members club.

This forum has never let me down on the wealth of information found here! Thank you all for the responses! My hubby and I are going to look at it in person tomorrow, I'm hopeful that it is everything we're looking for. I've seen all good reviews on the brand, and did not realize they had a lifetime warranty for the original owner! Being part of the gas and oil field makes sense. It may be a mystery that is never solved...
