GOWYN - I had no concerns about the tent material. I looked at the starcraft too, but opted for the Baja. There are probably pros/cons of any tent material, but then my parents popup which is over 30 years old is still weatherproof. The other features made the Baja seem the better trailer for me.

Regarding the brakes - I've been told electric could be better, but I haven't driven a trailer with electrics since I was 17, so don't really know any better at this stage. I'm attracted to the simplicity of surge brakes, and have no real complaints about them. My boat trailer at work also has surge brakes, and it hasn't given me any trouble. I've never felt the trailer pushing on me down steep inclines..... I do like being able turn off the overdrive on the 80 when doing hills.
