Starcraft RV Owners Forum

I noticed you were looking for a 2016 RB...I have a 2014 Launch 50th anniversary 16RB that we are selling. Everything is good with a clear title. we live in Jacksonville, Fl. We have enjoyed camping in it for about three years. You can email me at Nowelldm@aol.com if interested if you have not located one yet..also can call at 904-924-8851..

We towed with a 2003 Ford Sport trac with no issue. we have a weight distribution attached for easier towing
The A/C keeps you quite cool..
The LP hook up is easy, almost like a BBQ grill..
also very easy to do all tanks..easy to get to and empty..

We are looking at buying a 2016 16RB. We live in Florida and will be camping periodically for the next 18 months and then empty nesters. Family is wife and me and 2 Vizlas. We bike, hike, and kayak and enjoy being outdoors. I've read about the odd bed sizes but fortunately we are not tall.

My questions to those who own a 16RB or similar:
1. given our interests, hiking, biking, kayaking--would this size trailer be sufficient especially since we are novices?

2. Given the Gross weight of trailer, would you recommend a truck (F-150 type) or SUV (Telluride, Highlander, etc) for towing?

3. Given the pop-up style beds, does the AC keep the trailer cool?

4. How easy or difficult is it to hook up LP?

5. How easy or difficult is it to drain water tanks: fresh, black, grey?

6. What disappointed you the most?

7. what surprised you the most in a positive way?

Appreciate thoughts and feedback.
