My new Home.  A 1998 Coachmen Starflyte.  I wanted to keep it under 23' and this is 21'.  Most 21' RV's have lousy layouts, generally just a dinette and a bed over the cab.  I fell in love with the interior of this one when I first found this model online.  They mostly seemed to be in California and Florida.  One was in Nantucket but I didn't want to buy it in January when it would have been winterized and I wouldn't be able to check things out.  I found a different RV with a slide and a really nice layout in Myrtle Beach but it took me a few days to get the Tracker ready to be towed and when I called the woman to let her know I was coming and would be there in two days, she said someone was coming to look at it that day - well it was  good deal so I knew they would buy it.    Easter Sunday before going to bed I decided to check Craigslist one last time.  Lo and Behold there was a 21' Coachmen Starftlyte just listed in Chili.  Meant to be!






Maiden voyage to Stonybrook I got 15 mpg.  Won't probably get that fully loaded but 10-12 is certainly attainable
