Northstar 8.5 Arrow Despite the modest base weight of 1900 pounds, Northstar Camper’s side dinette version of its 8.5 Arrow camper (also currently available as a rear dinette version) yields some impressive dimensions. How does an interior height of 6 feet, 8 inches and nearly 9 feet of floor space grab ya? Moreover, the bedding is honestly queen-size (60x80 inches), with buyers getting the option of adding a fold-out bunk. Standards inside include a three-burner stove, three-way refrigerator, double 20-pound LPG tanks, window valances, magazine rack and bathroom skylight.
Northstar would also like people to notice two often overlooked aspects of its campers. One is the availability of insulated windows, offered on Northstar campers for nearly 20 years. The European design comes equipped with a built-in shade and screen, with engineers utilizing a plastic frame with an argon-gas filled pane to provide the maximum in insulation with no obscured views. The company’s insulated HEKI vent remedies the problem of the cold-air infusion often coming from the cabover escape hatch. The technology is similar to the insulated windows, with gas-filled panes drowning out the noise while keeping temperatures stable onboard.
