I have a tent trailer for sale, thought Id post it here for a week or so.

Its a 1980 Starcraft Starmaster XL. The canvas is in good shape. The outside is a little faded, but she tows nicely.

its has

2 Big beds, plus the table folds into another good size bed
1 Gas furnace, operated by a regular home style thermostat, works GREAT
1 Sink with water pump
1 stove, which can be rigged inside or out
1 table, which can be rigged inside or out.
1 newer refrigerator, works GREAT, can freeze a gallon of milk on high, propane or plug in, but propane is the way to go.
2 large propane tanks
interior and exterior lighting
no rips in any beds or canvas
Tires are in good shape and tow nice

I recently had the fuse box replaced to a updated type of system
I recently replaced the tongue jack
I also recently had the leaf springs re-welded to the frame of the trailer and new nuts installed, this being the reason it tows so nice, and is a solid ride.

Its also has the PTI plates.
I have the original owners manual, and I am the 2nd owner.

We love the trailer, but its time for a new home. We have been enjoying tent camping the last few trips, and I hate towing anything. Its a solid older trailer, this was the cadillac of trailers back in the day, and it made it easy to take our daughter camping when she was only a few months old.

Also the lift works great, and the wood on the corners on the underside is in great condition.

What it needs:
New sun roof, easy install, about $40
Right tail light bulb
Couple of the out side plastic vents new to be replaced, some I bought but never screwed them on, its easy.

Oh, i also updated the towing harness, it has a 7-round on it, got rid of the old 1980 4 flat, and it will charge when towed, if your rig is wired for that.

And, it comes with 2 large deep cycle batteries to run the heater fan and lights. I also installed a cig lighter inside to charge phones and such. Plenty of storage for your pots, pans, silverware, fishing stuff, camping stuff, clothes, guns, what ever.

Ill get some pics of the inside this weekend if anyone is interested, just send me a message, thanks for looking!

Fricken STEAL of a deal there Porky!!!  I'm still not really interested in a tent trailer, but have heard a few that are.  I'm sure someone will take it for that price!

yup, NCKA deal.

granted its not as pretty as it looks in the pic, but a good polish and it would look great, and it works great. Its perfect for someone like us, who didnt want too worry about keeping the indide of a newer trailer all pretty, it serves its purpose and moe, plus we dont have to worry about fancy floors or designer camping coushins, the beds fit me at 6'2" no problem, and there super comfortable.

I posted it here and made it known to some friends, ill prolly post it on craigs for about $1100 or so.
