  • Tour of my 1998 Coachmen Starflyte 210 FRB. Rare Class B-plus motorhome. 21 feet long. On a 1997 Ford E-350 cutaway chassis with the 5.4 V-8. Fiberglass rear body. Sleeps two. Early production model, as rear axle is not a dualie, but a single. Have only seen one other like this.. NOT FOR SALE.

    Real nice, I love the way you slowed the camera to show the whole layout at the end. A lot of people just show close ups and it's hard to see the layout. Thanks for posting. Great job on explaining everything. Hope to see your next one when you buy it.

    Thank you for sharing. It makes me want one more than ever, now! Very nice! This one is actually nicer than many of the newer similar class ones I saw at a recent RV show. It's good you got video of it for yourself since you are going to miss it. Have fun in your conversion van!

      Thanks. Yes, I think that the Starflyte is a timeless RV that really doesn't look its age. Ahead of its time.

      The layout with the L-shaped couch in the back that converts to a bed is a good layout too. It gives you more room that the one with the permanent bed in the rear like mine. They are the best layouts. Then there is a third layout that is not so good.

    Since there are no rear dually tires, does that restrict weight-wise how much stuff you can take on trips?

  • @missychan63
    @missychan63 Před rokem

    I agree with you on the lack of "living area". My biggest pet peeve in any RV is when you sit down on the sofa and you're looking at the sink and cooktop... What the heck? I mean I know they have to put things where they fit but good Lord, any idiot can figure out how to revamp that floor plan. This little rig is pretty cute... Small, but very doable. I'm actually surprised at the amount of storage.

      Engine in very good condition. Had 60k miles when I bought it. I had the engine checked over by mechanic. No issues. Just replaced fuel, air and oil filters. Oil change. New serpentine belt. I drove it from the east coast to New Mexico and back - 4000 miles. And I have driven it to Milwaukee and back. Very reliable. No issues.

    Hello! So I don’t know much about vehicles, but I have a family friend that’s willing to sell me an older starflyte for $150. The catch? He removed the engine. I was wondering if anyone knows about engines, and could tell me more about engines and what I could do to purchase a new engine and replace it if I choose to do so? Again, I don’t know much about vehicles, so I’m willing to put a bit of elbow grease if anyone can tell me an inexpensive alternative engine without sacrificing usage. I’ve lived in rvs, but I don’t know about mechanics and such. Thank you to anyone that can help 😁

      I can't remember the height and width. But I think if you search you will eventually find it. But I believe that it was about 9'8" tall at the A/C unit and about 7' wide. I'll see if I can find it and edit my answer if it's different.
