Looks like Starcraft has stopped making Pop Ups. They don't even list them anymore on their Website.Jayco, Starcraft's owner, has also limited their Pop Ups to only 4 floorplans. Looks like they combined the Jayco Sport and Jay Series line and done away with the A frame campers.

That's a shame. Of course, Starcraft hasn't really made its own popups for some years now. I would guess the A-frame ones just weren't selling; too much competition in a limited market, what with Aliner and Chalet having already cornered that market. (I think Forest River may also have an A-frame PUP.) Starcraft and Coleman made the best-made PUPs back in the day, IMO. (We had the former.) That changed when the economy crashed the RV market some 20 years ago or so, and both companies outsourced their PUP-building.

Bummer...Our 1st "RV" was a StarCraft Galaxy 24. King front bed, forced heat, 3 way fridge, WH, shower, and recirculating toilet. Kinda hated selling it

My 2008 Starcraft 14RT sure has a beefed-up frame under it... Don't see this in the other OFF-ROAD look-alikes...Roy Ken

Mr. Doom-and-Gloom speaking here: I wonder if Popups have much of a future at all. With the prices they have on them these days, they seem to me to have become rather like dinosaurs. Don't get me wrong. I love popups. We enjoyed one for 15 years. But when the prices for a new one are equal to or higher than some TT's, it's a hard sell for a first-time RV. I would guess the used market is going to be very profitable for sellers for a while.-Speak

Yup, Can't buy a new version of the greatest popup ever (Coleman Sun Valley) anymore for any price either.Gotta make mine last forever!I thought we were going to have a resurgence for a while there when people were abandoning Burbs and F150 crews and buying crossovers with 3,500# tow ratings, but it seems the truck sales are back and pup sales continue to plunge.
