2025 Starcraft Autumn Ridge26RLS

Starcraft lists the 2025 Autumn Ridge 26RLS at 5,890 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 7,600 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 1,710 lb and a hitch weight of 750 lb. Its UVW plus its cargo capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 30' 1" long and 11' 2" high with the air conditioner, with 42 gal fresh, 39 gal grey, 39 gal black. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank uses roughly 349 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 16 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 26RLS, whose title names the model year 2025.
