2025 Starcraft Autumn Ridge188BHS

Starcraft lists the 2025 Autumn Ridge 188BHS at 4,145 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 5,500 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 1,355 lb and a hitch weight of 535 lb. Its UVW plus its cargo capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 23' 10" long and 10' 7" high with the air conditioner, with 20 gal fresh (Starcraft prints no grey or black tank figure for it). 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 6 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 188BHS, whose title names the model year 2025.
