01 What makes it unique
Starcraft lists the 2019 Autumn Ridge Outfitter 27BHS at 6,275 lb dry, a GVWR of 8,500 lb, a net carrying capacity of 2,225 lb and a tongue weight of 750 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 134" high. Starcraft prints its tanks as 48 gal fresh, 32 gal grey, 32 gal black.
Among the 10 Autumn Ridge Outfitter floorplans Starcraft’s Autumn Ridge Outfitter brochure (filed under 2019 on Starcraft’s own site; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 8 from the lightest, in a range from 4,205 lb (Autumn Ridge Outfitter 20FBS) to 7,330 lb (Autumn Ridge Outfitter 27RLI). 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 Autumn Ridge Outfitter brochure (filed under 2019 on Starcraft’s own site; the brochure prints no year); model year 2019 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

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 (8,500 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,275 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 Autumn Ridge Outfitter 27BHS
Starcraft prints no tire size, sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, 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
5,770 lb dry and 7,500 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,275 lb and 8,500 lb.
6,445 lb dry and 8,500 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,275 lb and 8,500 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip

Across 10 Autumn Ridge Outfitter floorplans the water share runs 18% to 26%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: Autumn Ridge Outfitter 282BH at 19%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
