I do belive that all propane tanks are dated.  However, they can be
recertifed and reinstalled.  I wasn't even going to worry about it on my
82 camper but my dad who works for a propane dealer covinced me
otherwise.  They took it and tested it and threw some paint on it. Now
I'm good for another 12 years.  If your worried or the tank is shot, new
ones can be purchased from either the dealer, expensive but possible, or
call manchester tank, 800-887-8265.

Here's a cute storie my friend Dale Ward told me.  One time he was at
the propane dealer filling the tank and another man was waiting to fill
his tank (gas grill or somthing) and the man filling the camper tank
asked how long a fill up lasted. Dale told him that his lasts him most
of the summer. The man waiting overheard the conversation and spoke up
and said "WOW you drive all summer on that little tank. Maybe I should
get one of these campers." =)  Take care.
