I am considering purchasing a 2004 Starcraft Antigua or a 2005 Starcraft Travelstar.  Anyone have any pros or cons. Only looking at the 19' trailers.  We are going out of a 1990 Coleman Sun Valley, and I love the idea of the popup like beds, but not a popup!!

we had a trail lite bantam C-17 for 3 years and loved it! I like the little hybrids because you can take them almost anywhere. As far as pros and cons on that camper I cant answer. But whatever your desicion is I trust it will be the right one. Have fun and good luck!  ;)

We bought the '06 Antiqua 215SSO this year, and feel it is just what we wanted!  We were in a '02 Coleman Bayside previously.

I can't say that set-up and take-down require any less time, but it is considerably 'easier.'  The TravelStar and the Antiqua are the same with the exception of the interior 'decor.'

We haven't even begun to use all the storage space, and have in fact, continued using some of the 'totes' that were so necessary with the Bayside, until we figure out the best and most efficient use of all that space.

Unit tows beautifully!

I know you'll enjoy either one...

Blue Skies!

Hello,
We bought a 2004 Travel star 21sb and love it. We had a viking popup with all the option. but I am glad we traded and got the hybrid. setup is quick and we can break down camp less the 30 minutes. The only problem we have is the condensation in the bunk end, when it is cold out and and we have to have the heater on. we are still trying to figure out how to fix that problem. we crack the windows and got a vent cover. next we are going to buy the popgizmo(? I think thats what it is called). and purchase bunk end fans.

We don't have a hybrid (yet!) but I have read that the PUGs should solve your problem.

The bunkend covers from PopUpGizmo are fantastic! They solved our condensation problem, help keep in heat and cold as needed, and have darkend the bunks so we can sleep later into the morning! We love them!

We just upgraded to a 2007 Antigua 19Ck, we are really enjoying the unit so far.  It is compact, Tows great, looks great and has somenice features(outdoor speakers etc)  I thought I would have an issue with the white interior, but I actually enjoy it now.  Very nice unit...sets up in 10 minutes...priceless!!

We are new to the PU world.  Where did you get your cover's?  My husband and I have been tent camping for the last 11 years and finally bought our first PU.  We do mostly winter/cold weather camping and after reading several place's I see that the bunks may not be as warm as we think they will be.  Did your's help with keeping in the warm air? :confused:

We're stopping to look at a 2006 Starcraft Antigua 215SB tomorrow on our way to camping for a week at Letchworth SP in NY.

We've been communicating with the dealer back and forth and they would basically give us a very nice trade in on our '02 Utah.

We'll see...

Decided on the Jayco Featherlite 232 expandable with 3 bunk ends. We take delivery next Saturday.
