01 What makes it unique
Starcraft lists the 2025 Autumn Ridge 182RB at 3,605 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 4,650 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 1,045 lb and a hitch weight of 380 lb. Its UVW plus its cargo capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 22' 11" long and 10' 6" high with the air conditioner, with 20 gal fresh, 20 gal grey, 20 gal black. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank uses roughly 166 lb of the cargo capacity before anything else is loaded.
Among the 18 Autumn Ridge floorplans Starcraft lists for 2025 with a published weight, it is number 4 by unloaded weight, in a range from 3,135 lb (173MD) to 6,330 lb (28BHS). Every figure in that comparison is Starcraft’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Starcraft’s own floorplan page for the Autumn Ridge 182RB, whose title names the model year 2025.
How the 182RB differs from the other sixteen Autumn Ridge floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- GVWR, 4,650 lb: third-lowest of seventeen, between the 173MD and 177BH (3,895 lb) and the 180BHS and 19BH (4,995 lb).
- Cargo capacity, 1,045 lb: third-smallest of seventeen, between the 173MD and 177BH (760 lb) and the 180BHS (1,210 lb).
- Tongue weight, 380 lb: third-lightest of seventeen, between the 173MD and 177BH (285 lb) and the 19BH (395 lb).
- Dry weight, 3,605 lb: fourth-lightest of seventeen, between the 19BH (3,540 lb) and the 180BHS (3,785 lb).
- Length, 22 ft 11 in: fifth-shortest of seventeen, between the 19BH (22 ft 4 in) and the 20FBS (23 ft 8 in).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 10.5%: sixth-smallest of seventeen, between the 20FBS (10.4%) and the 180BHS (10.7%).
- Fresh tank, 20 gal: smallest of seventeen, level with the 180BHS, 188BHS and 19BH; next are the 173MD and 177BH (30 gal).
- Grey tank, 20 gal: smallest of sixteen, level with the 173MD, 177BH and two others; next are the 26BH and 26BHS (32.5 gal).
- Black tank, 20 gal: smallest of sixteen, level with the 173MD, 177BH and two others; next are the 26BH and 26BHS (32.5 gal).
- Sleeping capacity, 4: smallest of seventeen, level with the 173MD, 20FBS and two others; next are the 177BH, 180BHS and three others (6).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 22.5%: shared with the 26RLS; of sixteen, four smaller and ten larger, nearest the 22MLS (21.4%) and the 180BHS (24.2%).
- Exterior height, 10 ft 6 in: shared with the 263TH, 26BH and 27BH; of seventeen, three lower and ten taller, nearest the 231BH (10 ft 5 in) and the 180BHS, 188BHS and two others (10 ft 7 in).
Next to the 19BH, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 182RB is 65 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 345 lb lower, has 410 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 15 lb lighter, is 7 in longer, stands 1 in lower and sleeps two fewer; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
Next to the 180BHS, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 182RB is 180 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 345 lb lower, has 165 lb less cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 25 lb lighter, is 9 in longer, stands 1 in lower and sleeps two fewer; the two publish the same fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

How these published figures sit against the rest of the catalogue: travel trailer tongue weight by size; fresh, grey and black tank sizes; camper trailer size chart.
Federal tire recalls naming this size. NHTSA’s recall file names ST225/75R15 in 2 tire recalls: 14T015000 (Dynamic Tire Corp., 2014; make TOWMAX STR; model ST); 17T014000 (Triangle Tire USA, 2017; make TRIANGLE; model TR643). A tire recall covers only the brands, lines and DOT date codes it lists, and this page does not know which brand of tire this trailer was built with, so read the brand and DOT code on your own sidewalls before relying on this list. Only 242 of NHTSA’s 788 tire recalls name a size in their summary, so a size with no match is not a clean record (NHTSA recall file, read 12 Oct 2026).

Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (4,650 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (698 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Starcraft does not publish for the 182RB
Starcraft’s page prints no axle count and no interior height against this floorplan, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling floorplan, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
3,540 lb UVW and 4,995 lb GVWR, against this plan’s 3,605 lb and 4,650 lb.
3,785 lb UVW and 4,995 lb GVWR, against this plan’s 3,605 lb and 4,650 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 20-gallon fresh tank is about 166 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 16% of the 182RB’s 1,045 lb cargo capacity, leaving 879 lb (220 lb per rated berth). Across 17 Autumn Ridge floorplans the water share runs 11% to 39%, and 12 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Autumn Ridge 263TH at 15% and Autumn Ridge 26BHS at 17%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Autumn Ridge 180BHS, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 6 of the 9 fields both publish (this plan first): length 22 ft 11 in vs 22 ft 2 in; sleeps 4 vs 6; dry weight 3,605 lb vs 3,785 lb; GVWR 4,650 lb vs 4,995 lb; cargo capacity 1,045 lb vs 1,210 lb; hitch weight 380 lb vs 405 lb. They match on fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 18 recall campaigns and 14 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Autumn Ridge line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
What to look at on a used one. Across the 14 complaints filed on this line the most-reported components are equipment (36%), electrical system (14%) and latches/locks/linkages (14%).
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Autumn Ridge line page.
