Anyone looking for a good used tent trailer? The one I traded in for my new Jayco X213 is the 1994 Starcraft Starflyer on Traveland Langley BC website. I can personally vouch that the trailer has been well kept and always stored under cover. I even tarped it when camping as well.

Well I will shortly be the proud owner of an Starcraft Autumn Ridge 278BH. We are moving from the pop up to the TT, delivery is May 11. Kids and my wife and I are very excited, this has been a long time in the making.

Thanks for such a great site full of helpful people.

Congrats on the new TT. We are loving our Autumn Ridge. The quality it MUCH BETTER than the Forest River Surveyor we had before. This TT is the one we are going to stay with for a long time to come.

lunatech, great to hear we bought this for the long haul.. no pun intended. We like the quality we saw as well. I am so looking forward to the low setup time, so I can spend more time enjoying the outdoors and the family.

I know what you mean about the low set up time. We tent camped for years then moved up to a popup for a year then the Surveyor TT and now the Starcraft TT. I love being able to back in a site, level, connect up and done. Plus my girls are asking when and where the next trip is when we are pulling in the driveway getting home from the one we are on.

This is my 2008 STARCRAFT 14RT OFF ROAD POPUP camping at CAMP DORIS in Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, Medicine Park, OKLA...

This is a great POPUP to have... Who needs hookups we just run extension cords and produce our own power for fans. We love it...

Sweet PUP! We stared with a 1996 Coleman popup and loved it. We progressed to what we have now and are enjoying every minute of it.

Hello everyone.

Thanks for the Starcraft site on this forum. I've been lurking for about 1/2 year in the Jayco section and have learned a great deal! This is a great and helpful forum.

The wife and I bought a new Starcraft 235fb about a year ago at a home & RV show. We really like the travel trailer, and have enjoyed our trips with it. We pull with a 2002 Dodge quad cab 2500 8-cylinder.

For any of you getting the 235 fb with the large water capacity (gotta love that!)...check out the Jayco portion of the forum under "Water tank pukes". There is apparently a design flaw which causes these to lose lots of water through siphoning action through the overflow tubes and while sloshing in travel. An easy and quick fix is explained in that section (and lots of spouses have been incorrectly being blamed for using too much water...so you'd better be ready to apologize to her!)

I have a 1972 Starcraft Tent Trailer. Does that count? I have to admit that it hasnt been used in the last 7 or so yrs ago except when we had a week end get together at the lake a couple yeaers ago and needed the extra bed space for the teens to crash in.

Just took delivery of a 2013 Starcraft Travel Star Galaxy 309BHS. We saw it at the big rv show in Tampa this January. It is an upgrade for as from a 2005 Prowler Lynx 25 footer. Wow what a palace on wheels this thing is! We are going to test it out this weekend at a Hillsborough county park at Lithia Springs which is about 3 miles from home. Then the following week we are off to Gatlinburg, TN. for a real camping trip.

Welcome to the board everyone. Hey Loukii, we have a 2012 Autumn Ridge 309BHL and LOVE IT!!! We have taken several trips so far and it's a huge upgrade from the Surveyor SP260. Much better quality with the Starcraft.

Just fouind out that Starcraft makes a 3 slide (bed slide) trailer Autumn Ridge 346RESA. Jayco stopped making their Eagle 330RLTS (3 slide) and we are ready for a 3 slide unit. Will sell our 2007 322FKS Eagle and possibly buy the Starcraft.
Anyone own a 346RESA and want to comment about it???

Thanks for the Starcraft acknowledgement. We bought our first camper this year. It's a 2006 XP18.
