Any single (bed) slide popups?

Looking for a single slide popup. I know of starcraft 1404 but are there others? Thanks in advance.

Welcome!

I believe Fleetwood makes one. It is either the Scorpion or the Cobalt, but I am not sure right off the top of my head. I am in a hurry right now but will research it later today and let you know. Their website is fleetwoodrv.com .

Hope you find what you are looking for.

Thanks for the feedback. I looked at the website and Fleetwood has a single slide but no options for sink, fridge and stove. It looks nice though.

Sorry I wasn't more helpful. Our popup was a fleetwood, so those are the first ones that come to mind for me.

Jayco 1202 Can have fridge, but no sink or stove.

I went to the viking website, but they have none. Starcraft didn't have the 1404 listed under the current year either.

There was someone else who wanted one with only the one slide but was advised that 2 beds would be better in the long run as the 2nd slide out bed could be used for storage. I am sure you know how limited storage is in a popup. We would sleep in the beds at night, but during the day have to transfer our suitcases and such to the beds so we would have room in the camper. If we had an extra bed, it would have come in handy to store our stuff in.

If you definitely want just the one slide out bed and want a kitchen, you may just stick with the starcraft as the sinlge beds are hard to find.

Good luck finding just the right camper for you.

I forgot to put the date. The 1404 was for 2002. Seems to be a limited type (single bed slide) for any manufacturer. I know the double slide is geared toward families, kids, budget and so on. I hate to say it but, been there, done that. Now it's just the wife, the dog and me. So, trying to find a single that we like is hard.

Thanks for your assistance. If you come across anthing let me know.

You do see them on occasion on E-Bay but they are getting hard to find. I was looking for one for my son. However, have you looked at the A-Liner? Very easy to set up and just enough room for you, wife and the pooch. We have one ordered for the kid. They are very nice.

Thanks Starcraft Dad, My DW and I looked at the Aliner at the local RV show. She didn't like it. According to her there was too much lifting involved.

I looked hard at the 1404 before I bought my Flagstaff... DW liked the Built in Shower...still think I might remove the front bunk, tenting and all... just put a plain window and tent material on the front> Why?? because you cant pop up without unhooking your tow vehicle..

Medorg, if you figure a way to remove/alter one bunk end let me know.
Thanks...

I looked at it today... I think I may just change the whole front section...tent/bed/fittings to the rear..but the zips are backwards...then need to fill in the front hole.... maybe a job for a long time into the future..but will advise... have put a wire frame shelf over the front bed...if anyone copies...be sure and dont over-drill the vertical pipe frame..hole will weaken the whole end section..

If I can't find a single slide bed to alter a double by removing the rear bed and canvas and use velcro or snaps and create matching canvas(with window) to box the end.

If it is so important, I would look for the Starcraft 1404 even it it is a 2002 year model..they are well made and if the interior is looked after, I would be tempted at a used one. Google Starcraft 1404...look for dealers too..
